Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Common Aches - and Ills . of Burlington People. As one weak.: link weakens a chain, so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten the final breaking-down. Overwork, strains, colds and oth er causes injure the kidneys, and when their activity is lessened the whole body suffers -from the excess of uric poison circulated in the blood. Aches and pains and'langubr and urinary ills come, and there . is an ever-increasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Bright's disease. There is no real help for the suffer er except kidney help.
