There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep-
tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by
it-heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are often the result of kidney
disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad-
vance the kidney—poisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Then lthe richness of the blood—the albumen
—-leaksout and the sufferer has Bright's
Disease, the worst form of kidney trouble. .
