Are we Growing Shorter Lived7
The Winter Of Our INSTRUMENTATION to
Grow Old Gracefully and Health
fully.

There Is no more pitiful sight than
a doddering, half imbecile, rheumatic,
limping, emaciated and querulous old
man or old woman.
And 1t is so unnecessary.
Old age should be quiet, graceful,

ness, and not the pitiful wreck OF a
once robust manhood.

means.

Is necessary.
From birth to the age of 80, the
growth and nourishment of the body Is

But at and after 40, nature COM
mences to tear down faster than she
builds up.
To be sure it Is only little at a
time, but the process is going on just
the same.
Our kidneys now have extra work
to do in throwing of the poisons and
impurities that result from this vast
ing process.
This is why rheumatism is so COM
mon IN men past ~.
This is why Kidney Disease that did
not before show many symptoms, now
breaks forth in failing eyesight, weak
ness, torpor and dropsy.

Backache Kidney Pills, and ease the
strain upon these overworked and
