WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
IS DANGEROUS.
Neglect of the First Warning Symp
toms is the Prime Cause of so
Many Deaths from the Dreaded
Bright’s Disease.
It is Easily Curable in the Early Stages.
Kidney diseases are so destructive to
human life because they do not manifest
alarming symptoms until the constitu
tion is seriously weakened and the
strength exhausted. Then, too often,
the remedies employed by many physi
cians are of indifferent or doubtful value,
and the patient rapidly sinks under the
disease. The wisest course is to apply a
reliable kidney and liver remedy on the
first appearance of the symptoms. A
little uneasiness in the small of the back,
digestive troubles, bowel irregularities
and disorder in the urinary organs are
matters of small moment in the estima
tion of strong men and women, yet they
have a serious meaning. They show
clearly that the kidneys are suffering
and need help, which must be forth
coming at once to prevent serious, per
haps fatal consequences. A few doses
of Prickly Ash Bitters at this time would
prove of incalculable value in restoring
the weakened organs to health. An
investment of one dollar in a bottle of
Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is
yet in the early stage will save hundreds
of dollars in doctor’s bills, besides the
suffering that would surely follow should
flu* fasten ill
the body. The excellent curative power
of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to
the first stages of kidney disease. It is
equally efficacious in severe or chronic
cases. Physicians have used it as a last
resort, in cases that defied their best
efforts, with the most brilliant results,
and it has shown its superiority over the
many so-called kidney cures, now being
loudly advertised, in instances innu
merable.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure 3 in red ou the front label.
Sold at Drug Stores, $1.00 per bottle.

WINE of CARDUI
No. 14 Main St., Pensacola, Fla., Nov. 20,1908. I
I had been suffering with irregular, scanty and most painful menstra* I
ation, and when the periods occurred I was unable to be up and had to stay I
in bed for a day or two. Nothing I took helped me until I used Wine of
Cardui. It proved to be just what I needed. Within two months the ' I
serious pain had disappeared, my headaches were leas frequent and not so ■
severe and felt very much encouraged, but had to use your medicine for ft
four months before I was entirely well and regular. I have enjoyed the ■ i
finest health now for eighteen - m 1
months. I am very regular and 'T1 *- "s- - W | ^
