"NERVES"
Much of th nervousness worrlment
and bad temper that we see every day
among our friends is due to weakened
kidneys.
Good kidneys drive a large amount of
uric products out of the body every day.
Uric acid is very Irritating and when in
excess It attacka the weakest parte flrat
Nerve troubles are mote common than
in years gone by. Civilisation haa
brought a heavier strain on th brain and
nerves. The nervous system often less
resistance to attacka of uric actd.
Nothing can cause more unhapplnssa
than fits of temper "blues" th Inclina-
tion to worry over trifles to suspect
one's friends and to see the worst side
of everything. Nervousness la so easily
misunderstood that many a kidney suf-
ferer drifts to the very verge of nervous
collapse without reallaing the cause of

Here is the clue: It your nerve troubles
are due to kidney weakness yon an
