IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake the Cause Of Your
TroubIes-An Augusta Citizen Shows
How to Cure Them.

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that
1t is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all the other symptoms OF kid
ney disorders. That is just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they lead to diabetes or
Brights disease. The best remedy to
use is Doan's Kidney Pills. 1t cures
all ills which are caused by weak or
diseased kidneys. Augusta peop.1
testify to permanent cures.
W. A. Hanks, carpenter, contractor and
builder, Of "a euirnby St. Augusta, Me-
says: ''No person suffering from kidney
