a BIT OF ADVICE
First - Don't Delay. Second -
Don't Experiment.

II you suffer from backache; head
aches or dizzy spells; II you rest poor
ly and are languid in the morning: II
the kidney secretlons are irregular
and unnatural in appearance, do not
delay. The kidneys are calling for
help. Slight symptoms Of kidney trou-
BILE are but fore-runners OF more seri-
Gus complaints. They should be
given attention before II is too late.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure kidney
trouble. They are recommended by
thousands. Can Mexico residents de-
sire more convincing proof than the
statement Of a Mexico citizen who
effected years ago has proven perma-
nent7
says that the cure Doan's Kidney Pills
". e. Yates, retired, 773 Il. Bolivar
Street, Mexico, Mo-, says: "Doan's
Kidney Pills have benefited me more
than any other remedy l have ever
used. I had so much trouble with m,
back and kidneys that l was laid up.
My back was stiff and painful and
my kidneys caused me great annoy
ance, as / would be obliged to get
up often at night to pass the secre'
tions. l at last went to what Ii
now the CrisweIl Drug Co., procured 9
box Of Doan's Kidney Pills and they
brought me prompt relief. 1 was
soon entirely free from the pain in
my back and the trouble with my kid
neys was also corrected"
The above statement was given ii
1895 and was confirmed by MI. Yates
on Nov. 18th, 1908, in the following
words: 1T gives me pleasure t.
state that / am free from kidney trou
bic. I occasionally 8 Doan's Kid
