Remember that you cannot be carried to success
in carriage with the hinges oiled, the backs padded
and the seats cushioned; you must trudge on foot
along the dusty highway.
If you are not willing to take off your coat
and work like man you must either be loafer
on your friends and relations or marry heiress.
The heiress who will take you, however, will be as
wanting in good sense as you are in clear grit.

And to Relieve the Lame and Aching Back,
You Must First Relieve the Kidneys

There is no question about that
at all-for the lame and aching
back is caused by diseased con-
dition of the kidneys and bladder.
1t is only common sense, any way
that you must cure condition
by removing the cause of the con-
dition. And lame and aching back
are not by any means the only
symptoms of arrangement of the
kidneys and bladder. There are
multitude of well-known and I'M
mistakable indications of more or
less dangerous condition. Some of
these are, for instance: Extreme
and unnatural lassitude and weari-
ness. nervous irritability, heart ir-
regularity, nerves on edge" sleep
lessness and inability to secure
rest, scalding sensation and sedi-
ment in the urine, Inflammation of
the bladder and passages, etc.
