ming of tlcuu 10 .,oison in the blood
Generally, the poison can be filtered
out by the kidneys.
A headache may be simply an unim-
portant pain, or the agony may be 50
eXcruciating as almost to drive one
frantic.
Rheumatic folks have headache, hard
workers have headache, people who
drink too much tea and coffee or use
too much tobacco, have headache, folks
" no worry, or get too excited, have
headache.
Headache is relieved by nervines,
sedatives and other drugs.
But not cured.
A cure requires the poison to be FL
tered out of the blood. The cause must
be taken away. The kidneys be made
to do their duty.
The only medicine that will do this
is DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills.
The reason il, that they are made
principally from the root of the aspar-
agus, one of the most wonderful kidney
tonics and curatives known and pre-
pared in certain way which uses all
the curative principle of the plant.
Headache is irritation of The nerves
by poison. Curing it is taking away
the poison.
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
are not what is called a "headache
cure" but they cure the kidneys and
make them filter the bleod
They take away the poison. They
make headache impossible.
After the pain has gone, prevent it
from coming back. This is the mission
of DR.. HOBBS Sparagus Kidney Pills.
If YOU have headache, make up
your MUD that something is wrong.
You may be rheumatic or have
anamia, govt, kidney disease, or other
disorders IF imprue blood.
Headache is often first sysptom

from progressing.

No one has been able to explain just
