The Blood is the Life — : ———~ —r* —: ; . Thus said one of the greatest physicians of modern times. If the Blood is pare, then the individual is strong and healthy. If tlse blood is impure, then there is sickness and decay in the whole system. The dnty of the Kidneys is to filter the blood, which circnlates through them for that purpose, cleansing it from all impurities, worn-out matter and uric acid, collected in its journey from the heart through the system. To purify the blood we must first be sure that the Kidneys are in order. We cannot get pore water from a foul filter, neither can we get pure rich blood from 4 Kidneys. If the Kidneys are out of order, they 1 cannot filter the impurities and uric acid from the blood, remitting in Rheumatism, gout, pain in the back, urinary troubles and kindred diseases. IRVING’S BUCHU WAFERS core Rheumatism to stay cured, bp removing the cause. They put the Kidneys in a healthy conditioSL enabling them to discharge the blood to the heart pure and healthful with all uric acid, the presence of which in the blood is the cam* ' of Rheumatism and all other blood diseases, eliminated. Mr. John, Knowlton’s experience, which he relates in a recent letter, is just the same as many others who have written in thankfulness for their core. Mr. Knowlton’s says: **Ai a sufferer from chronic Rheumatism for nearly twenty year,, I think I may aafely say that I have tried almost a hundred remedies: old women’s recipes, physicians’ prescriptions and patent medicines. Many of them relieved me for a time, but the first slight cold brought back the Rheumatism. One day I picked up a circular of Irving’s Buchu Wafers and started to read it. I was not much Interested at first, but when I began to read how the kidneys were responsible for Rheumatism, I began to pay attention and the common sense L statements made such an impression that I immediately bought a box Well, I took the whole box and had no Rheumatism for a month, but a alight cold brought It back, but not so bad as previously. This encouraged me, and I bought six boxes. I took them all faithfully, and it la now nine months sines 1 had a twinge of the Rheumatics, so that I fed that I am really cured. After the experience that I had with other so called remedies for Rheumatism, you wilt understand how glad I am to be able to tea ify to the merits of Irving's Bnchn Wafers. They orrtalaly did all that la Maimed lor them la my cam.** IRVING’S BUCHU WAPERS are nature’s own remedy for the cure of Bright’s Disease, Congestion of the Kidneys, Bladwr troubles, Dropsical Swellings, Gout, Gravel, Jaundice, Diabetn, Female Complaints and Irregularities, and are a positive cure St all Diseases and Blood Imparities which are directly or indircctfer traceable to deranged action of the Kidneys. They are pleasant To the taste, being sugar coated, and are prepared by the Irving Drug Co., Philadelphia. Price, fifty cents. There are many imitations of the IRVING’S BUCHU WAFERS on the market, bst do not be satisfied with anything but the genuine. J. A. Larsh, Druggist.
