DRAINS WORKING BADLY Tbe writer of tbe lefcrer to which I aj about to uek” your attention lives in Cork Ireland. If tbe next time be visits Dublin h will lean, over tbe balustrade of any of tin bridges that cross the Liffey bis nose will in form him (hat a very foul stream runs beneatl n other words the river is a sort of opei drain to the oily and contains what wemigh expect. The Thames in London is not mud better although no longer used directly foi sewerage purposes. The point 1 want to emphasise is this : thai all animal life produce waste matter which ai such is daugerous to health and must be got rid of as quickly and throughly as possible That is why all well regulated cities have elaborate and efficient systems of drainage. Very well. So much ia plain. Now, tbe human body has such a system too; .and when it doesn't work well, the dead, used-up and poisonous stuff (more or leas) remains in 1 the body and sets going a lot of mischief. If yon don’t think think so, it is because yon have not studied the subject or observed the operations of yonr own physical machinery. Once upon a time something went wrong with this important apparatus in Mr Cadden's body, and it led to an experience on his part which be had no wish to have repeated, “ For over t®o years,” he goes op to say, I suffered from disease of the kidneys. 1 had excruciating pain in the back and the lower partof nay body." [Of course; because the kidneys are situated in tbe loins, the best place for the work they have to do. There ore two of them, connected together, thaped like a bean, and about four inches long, by tnroe inches Iroad. There they lie, imbedded in fat; and their condition is an important index to the health of the owner. They ar« full of nerves also, and when diseased are 1 sure to oanse the keen pain Mr Cadden speaks of.] I* The secretion,” he continues, “ was very scant, and I suffered great pain in voiding it, sometimes blood coming away. I got into a low and depressed condition as year after year went by and I found myself growing worse and worse. What I suffered ia impossible to describe, and I never looked for being well again in this World.” [Our friend’s fears were well founded—much better than he realised, probably. Men die of that complaint almost like sheep with the murrain, and even Sallied doctors are shy of taking charge of a bad case of it.] " From time to time,” Mr Cadden says, ” I was obliged to leave my worn, as the gnawing pain was more than I could bear. I saw doctor after doctor, alid went into the hcspital, but none of the medicines eased me. "In June, 1894, I read about Mother Beigel’a Curative Syrup, arid got a bottle from the Drug Stores, Pembroke Street, and after taking it was so much better that I felt quite another man. I continued with this medicine’, and all the pain gradually left me. When I had taken three bottles I was completely cured, and have since been in the best of health. I feel truely grateful for what Mother Seigel’a Syrup has done for me in having saved me from a life of misery. Ton can publish this statement, and refer any one to me. (Signed) J. Cadden, 2, Buckingham Place, Cork, Ireland, August 18th, 1896.” It is the business of the kidneys to take certain waste and worn-out matters from the blood, and expel them from the body through tbe bladder, «o. They are a vital part of the drainage system I spoke of. In Mr Cadden’s case, as in so many others, they partially failed, and the retained poisons produced his suffering. Still (and please get a good bold of this point), kidney complaint is only one of a series of organic disorders, all of wbiob arise from chronic dyspepsia. It was so in this instance. The digestive trouble having been set right by Mother Seigel’s Syrup, the Kidneys soon became healthy. One—and only one—of the peculiar virtues of this famed preparation is its power to maintain in good working order the delicate and very important excretory, or drainage, system of the body. "
