WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE
WEAK BODIES.
Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Com
mon Aches and Ills of Ham
mOnd People.

AS one weak link weakens chain, so
weak kidneys weaken the whole body
and hasten the final breaking down.
Overwork, strains. colds and other
causes. injure the kidneys and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary Ills come, and there is an ever
increasing tendency towards diabetes
and fatal Brights disease. There is no
real help for the sufferer except kid
ney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys and cure every kidney i'll.
Hammond cures are the proof.
Mrs. c. Wise. Of 407 Indiana avenue.
Hammond, Ind. says Il was told BY a
friend that Doan's Kidney Pills were a
fine remedy for kidney trouble and on
her suggestion, 1 purchased a box at
Bicknell & Co.'S drug store I began
taking them as directed and in a couple
of days could see that I was being
benefited The pain in my back was
less severe, the kidneys were more reg
ular in action and I felt much stronger.
After a week use the pain had entirely
disappeared from my back and this en-
couraged me. I continued untid en-
tirely cured. I will always speak a good
word for Doans Kidney Pills when I
have the opportunity"
