KIDNEY COMPLAINT.
Probably there is uo complaint that afflicts
the human system, which is so little under?
stood at the present time, a» some of the Tried
forms of Kiknoy Complaints.
There is no disease which causes such acute
pain or wore alarming in its results than when
the kidneys fall to secrete from the blood the
urio acid, and other poisonous substances,
which the blood accumulates in its circulation
thiough the system.
If from any cause the kidneys fail to per
form'the functions devolving upon them, the
cumulations are taken up by the absorbents
and the whole system thrown into a state of
desease, causing great pain and suffering,and
very often immediate death. Uence the im
portance of keeping the kidneys and blood in
a healthy condition, through which all tho im

PAIN THE BACK.
There is no remedy known to medical sci
ence which has proved itself more valuable in
cases ofKidney Complaints.than tho VKGC-
TINR.
It acts directly upon the secretions,
cleanses and puriles the blood, and restores
the whole system to healthy action.
The following.extraordinary cure of great
sufferers, who had been given up by the brst
physicians as hopeless cases, will speak for
themselves, and should challenge the most
profound attention of the medical faculty, ae
well as as of those «ho are suffering from
Kidney Complaint.
THE BEST MEDICINE.
EAST MARSHFIGLD, Aug. 22, 1870.
M. STEVENS: Dear Sir—I am seventy-one
years of age have suffered many years with
Kidney Complaint, weakness in my back and
stomach. I was induced by friends to try
your Vegetine. and I think it the best medi
cine for weakness of the Kidneys I ever used.
I hare tried many remedies for this complaint,
and never found so much relief as from the
VjsexriNx. It strengthens and invigorates
the whole system. Many of my aoquaint
anees have taken it. and I believe it to be
good for all complaints for which it is reaom
mended. Yours truly,
JOSIAU H. SHERMAN.
Pronounced Incurable.
BOSTON, May SO, 1871.
II. R. STBVEHS, Esq.: Dear sir—I have
been lsadly afflicted with Kidney Complaint
far tea years have suffered great pain in tuy
hack, hips and side, witb great difficulty pass
ing urine, which was often, and in very small
quantities, frequently accompanied witb
blood and excruciating pain.
I hare faithfully tried most of the popular
remedies recommended for my complaint I
have been under the treatment of some of the
most skillful physicians is Boston, all of
whom prouounoed my case incurable. This
was my condition when I waa advise! by a
friend to try the VKOETI»R. and I could see
the good effects from tho first dose I took, and
from that moment I kept on improving until
I was entirely cured taking iu all. I should
think, about six bottles.
It is indeed a valuable medicine and if I
should be affiicted again in the same way, I
would give a dollar a dose, if I could not get
it without. Respectfully,
J. M. GILE,
551 Third Street, South Boston.
Nearly Blind.
II. R. STKVKNS: Dear sir—In expressing
my thanks to you for bei.efits derived from the
use of VEGCTINE, and to benefit others, I will
state:—
When eight or nine years old I was afflicted
with Scrofula, which made its appearance in
my eyes, face and head, and I was very near
blind for two years. All kinds of operations
were performed on my eyes, and all to no good
result. Finally the desease principally set
tled in my body, limbs and feet, and at times,
in an aggravated way.
Last summer I was, f»om some cause, weakj
in my spine and kidneys, and it was at times
ver£ bard for mo to retain the uriuo. Soeing
your advertisinent in (be Commercial, I
bought a bottle of YEG ET INK, and commenc
ed using according to directions. In two or
three days I obtained great relief. After
nsing fonr or five bottles I neticed it had a
wonderful effect on the rough, scaly blotches
on my body and legs. I stil used
EGKTIHK
and the numerous sores one after another dis
appeared until theya were 11 gone, and I attri
buted the cure of both deceases to Yegetine,
aad nothing else.
If I am ever affeeted with anything of ihe
kind again I shall try YEORTINE as the only
reliable remedy. Once more accept my
thanks, and believe me to be, Very respect
fully, AUSTIN PARROTT,
Dec.-l, 1S72. No. 35 Qane St., Cin. 0.
Disease of tho Kidneys, Bladder, etc., are
always unpleasant, and at times they become
the most distressful and dangerous diseases
that oaa affect the human systea. Most di
seases of the Kidneys arise from impurities
in tho blood, causing humors whieb settle oa
these parts. VEGKTIME excels any known
remedy in the whole world tor cleansing and
purifing the blood, thereby causing a healthy
action of the organ of the body.
