Women as Well as Men O^T^J Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble. MOV OTi Wi LAST Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis- aowages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid neys are out of order ' or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent □ that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kid- ' neys. If the child urin ates too often, if the vrine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bod-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy.

In all walks of life there is a demand for the who can do one particular thing better than any one else, and such a man is one who has col his endeavor to, and centered all of his energy and ability on the specialty he has chosen for bto life’s work. Early in my professional career I realised that Chronic Diseases were not being given the attention which their importance warranted. I saw that these diseases required a special fit ness which the busy practitioner could never acquire. For more than twenty years I have de voted myself exclusively to the study and treatment of these diseases, and the fact that phyal- clans recommend me to their patients is an evidence of my skill and ability tn my special line. I give special counsel to physicians with obstinate and obscure cases. I have devoted particular attention to chronic diseases of men and women, and no ottMT class of disease requires more intelligent and expert treatment. It is a fact that a majority men owe the seriousness of their condition to Improper treatment, and a failure to realise tlte Importance of placing their case in the hands of a skilled and expert specialist. .
