Almost every newspaper tells of cures
of the most deadly of kidney diseases by
Dodd's Kidney Pills. Bright's Disease,
Diabetes, Rheumatism and Bladder trou-
bles, in fact any disease that is of the
kidneys or caused by disordered kidneys
is readily cured BY this great American
remedy.
But it is in curing the earlier stages Of
kidney complaint that Dodd's Kidney
Pills are doing their greatest work. They
are preventing thousands of cases of
Bright's disease and other deadly ailments
BY curing Kidney Disease when it first
shows its presence in the body.
Speaking of this work Ex-Sheriff James
