Men suffer in the same way when they have kidney trouble.
 Ask yourself this question: Are my kidneys well? The condition of the kidney secretions may give you an answer. If there is brick k-dust sediment or a stringy settling in the urine: if passages are too frequent and copious. or scanty and painful, it Is time to begin using Doan's Kidney Pills.
