Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole Body Make You III, Languid and
 Depressed.

Sick kidneys weaken the body through the continual drainage of life giving albumen from the blood into poisonous acids that goes broadcast through the system, sowing the seeds of disease. Loss of albumen causes weakness. langour, depression. Uric poisoning causes rheumatic pain, ner vousness, nausea, cricks in the back, gravel and kidney stones. The proper treatment is kidney treatment, and the best remedy is DOan's Kidney Pills. Great Pine Bluff cures prove it.
 D. Horner, farmer, living three and a half miles northeast of Pine Bluff, Ark, says: "The action of my kid neys was irregular for quite a while, although I had no pain in my back like most people suffer. It was blad- der trouble and I had no control over the kidney secretions, and had to get out of bed as often as ten times dur in the night. I tried different rem edies but obtained no relief until a neighbor advised me to try Doan's Kidney Pills. After I purchased, a box and began their use I was aston ished to notice the good effect it had and the use of less than three boxes completely relieved me of the trouble. I have always kept this remedy by me since to have in case of need"
