There is no humbug, no deception; they

We refer you to Mr. John McCugh, No.

for a long time with disordered kidneys
and was never able to get any medicine
that would cure me- The pain across the
small part of my back would be so bad at
times that I could hardly attend to my
work. I seemed to be generally run down,
feeling more tired in the morning when /
would get up than when I went to bed at
night. Some of my friends recommended
me to try Morrow's Kid-ne-oids. and as
they were guaranteed to cure or the mon

few days as the directions said, I was re-

general health was restored"
If you have any form of kidney trouble
or nervous ailment arising from this dis
ease, check it at once with Morrow's Kid

and then blame yourself for not listening
to reason and facts.
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills, but
Yellow Tablets, which is the most scien-

are put up in wooden boxes which con-
