QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

7 I- Q. I hare been feeling very podrly d lately, and have just been toKl by my s - doctor that 1 am suffering from uric c poisoning. I shall be g«ad if you will k- tcttl nw just what uric poisoning means. \b is it a serious matter? . :- A. tJrie poisouuiy is caused by the c retention in the blood of various subtfc stances which should leave the body g in solution. The repetition" of theee eub|l stances is due to a diseased or inactive t r coiHiition of tire kidneys. tVbcai the y kktneys are working perfectly they „. filter fflhd extract from tne blood of tine . . average individual about tlu-ee pints of t l I urine every day. In this quantity of k urine should l>6 dissolved various waste j material produced by the wear and tear of the tissues of the body. This is dead, matter, and its presence in the blood is poisonous. Tho three pints 'of normal urine should contain about ten grains in weight of uric acid, an 9 ! ounce of urea together with other animal and mineral matter varying from n a third of an ounce to nearly an ounce. Q. Then I am to understand that the ■> substances you mention when not cli- - niittated from the body in the natural : j manner constitute what is known as ; tiric poisoning. What are the usual - symptoms by which th<* presence of - th<ee poisons is manifested? i A. Now you are asking a rather large i question. Many complaints which are . commonly called diseases are not no--3 tunlly diseases in themselves. For iftj stance Rheumatism, Gout. Neuralgia, j Lumbago, Sciatica, Gravel, Stone and ( ■ Bladder Troubles are all cniisod by uric ' poisons, Indigestion, Amomia, Persist. ' ; ent Headache, ana General Debility _ I are often solely due to the s«me cause. In fact, if the kidneys are doing their work freely and thoroughly, none of I the complaints mentioned could trouble us ac the causative poisons. would be ' absent. • Q. I had no idea that so much de>- ' pended Upon the efficient action of the kidneys. I suppose that when anyone • ie Buffering from Rheliniattem, Gout, j Neuralgia, Lumbago, Sciatica, Gravel, ' Stone, Bladder Troubles, Anceinia. Do- ■ biYvtj, Persistent Headache, or Indi- "; gestion, the scientific method of effect- • ing a euro would be to directly treat the patiemt for the kidneys? I '' A. Exactly. In fact, that ie the only 1 way in which ft. radical and permanent f cure can be effected. The kidneys must ' be restored to health and activity, ro 1 that they may be enabled to remove i tho daily production of poisons in the > body, or the patient must continue to > suffer. ' I Q. I have always been under the im- [ pressidn that the liver had a great, deal: ■I to do with the maintenance of our 1 general health, but it seeme that the I kidneys Are the chief cause of most of the disorders from which we suffer. ' A. The wbfk done by the liver is of the utmost importance, and it is closely \ associated witfi the work done by the • kidneys. Indeed, when anything is the , matter with the liver, the kidfleyg are , admoet always directly affected, and the ■ oo"Htrary is likewise true. In the liver various subet&noefl are actually made from the blood. Two or three pounds of bile are thus made every day. Tho > liver takes sugar from the blood, con- ! vorts it into another form ? and etores I it up so ac to be able again to supply i lit to the blood, gredually, as the latter ] , requires enrichment' The liter changes uric aoid, which is insoluble, into urea, which is completely soluble, and the , liret also deals with the blood cor- , pusclee which have lived their life and are useful no longer. ( Q. As the functions of the kidneys and liver are so intimately related, I gather that if there is reason to suepe«t that either organ ie not doing its work efficiently, a curative agent should bo employed which would aot equally upon the kidneys and liver? A. Yes, that ie the case, and it was the realisation of this important fact which led to the discovery of that invaluable medicine, Warner's Safe Cure. About thirty years ago, certain modical men, knowing that if they could find a medicine which would beneficially affect alike the kidneys and liver, they could control most or the common disorders, devoted themselves to the search ,for etfch & remedy. After many disappointments, their efforts wore rewarded, and a medicine now known as Warner's Safe Cure was proved to possess the required properties in the. fulkwt degree. Warnor'e Safe Cure has a marvellously stimulating and healing effect upon both the kidneys and liver, and by restoring those vital organs to health and activity, it necessarily ouree all disorders due to the retention in the blood of urinary and biliary poieons. Biioh oe Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia. Lumbago, Sciatica, Blood Disorders. Anemia, Indigestion, Bilioueneae, Jaundice, Gravel, Stone, Bladder Troubles, General Debility, and Sick Headache. Ifivan Bright's Diseaee, probably the most fatal of all diseases, yields to treat- j ment by Warner's Safe Cure. Cures' effected by Warner'* Safe Cure are permanent simply because they ore natural. 4
