ALL WRONG.
The Mistake is Made by Many Browns.
vile Citizens

Don't mistake the cause of back
ache.
To be cured you must know the
cause.
1t is wrong to imagine relief is
cure.
Backache is kidney ache.
You must cure the kidneys.
A Brownsville resident tells you
how this can be done.
Sergt. j. W. Strait, retired U.
S. A., living on Fifteenth St.,
Brownsville, Texas. says: For
several years past had trouble
with my kidneys. 1t took the
form of excessive and too frequent
passages of the kidney secretions.
1 often had to get up four or FIVE
times during the night to urinate.
I tried different remedies, but
found no relief from any of them
until got Doan's Kidney Pills
from J. L. Putegnat & Bro. s
drug store. Before l had taken
one box of this medicine the ac-
ton of the kidneys had become
quite normal and regular. From
this experience 1 believe that
Doan's Kidney Pills will cure any
body afflicted with kidney troubles.

consequence Is the girls are probably
made to consort with companions with
whom they have no taste in common.

senial companionship.

members of the opposite sex with sus-
