THE VICTIM OF DRINK.
Needs orrine Treatment.

Drink first destroys ambition;
breaks up ties of friendship; it kills
ard buries love and eventually de-
stroys the family life.
Some of the best men in the world
have been victims of drink and if
there is not some member in your
family that is afflicted with this dis
ease, you arc indeed fortunate
Drink cunningly destroys the will
power. and while the drunkard wants
to do what you tell him, he wants a
thousand times more the drink that
he Graves.
Drunkenness is no longer consider
ed crime; eminent scientists and
physicians have agreed that it is a
T, disease and must be treated as such.
The home treatment that has been
used for a number of years, and is
highly successful, is Orrine 1t is

Doing Their Duty.
Scores of Rock Island Readers Are
Learning the Duty of the Kidneys.

To filter the blood is the kidneys
duty.
When they fail to do this the kidneys
are sick.
Backache and many kidneys ills fol-
low.
Urinary trouble, diabetes
Doan's Kidney Pills cure them all.
Mrs. j. F. Sanberg, 144G Eleventh
avenue, Moline, Ills, says: Several
years ago my husband was troubled
with severe backaches and other symp-
toms of kidney trouble. The pains
were sometimes so severe as to force
me TO stop work and come home. and
they gradually grew worse. None of
the remedies he took seemed to do
aim any good and we were becoming
alarmed when he learned of Doan's
Kidney Pills. He procured Il box and
found them to be as represented Az
| ter using them a short time the pains
left him entirely and he became per
fectely well. He made a statement
at that time recommending Doan's Kid
| ney Pills, and he has had no return
of the trouble since. However. we
| always keep a box of Doan's Kidney
Pills in the house and it is a pleasure
| for us to recommend them to any one
suffering from kidney complaint of any
| form"
