Dr. Reade, In his Interview, went on to say:
“In the course of my life l have examined many thousands of men and women
for life insurance, so that I speak from experience when I state that more are re
jected on account of weak kidneys than for all other diseases put together. In fact,
nearly every second person has kidney trouble, though very few even suspected Us
presence until they came up for examination.
“Many of those 1 had refused returned later on and were acceptod, the most
careful examination falling to discover the slightest trace of kidney disease In
their systems. I always asked how they were cured, and Invariably the answer
was. ‘By taking Werners Safe Cure.’
