HEED THE WARNING.
Many Leon People Have Done So.

When the kidneys are sick they
give unmistakable warnings that
should not be ignored. BY examin-
ing the urine and treating the kid
neys upon the first sign of disorder,
many days of suffering may be saved.
Sick kidneys expel a. dark, ill-smell-
ing urine, full of "brick-dust" sedi-
ment and painful in passage. Slug
gish kidneys cause dull pain in
the small of the back, headaches,
dizzy spells, tired, languid feelings
and frequently rheumatic twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the
kidneys only; they cure sick kidneys,
and rid the blood of uric poison. If
you suffer from any of the above
symptoms you can use no better rem
edy. Leon people recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills.
Edward Beck, N. Main St., Leon,
says: about two years ago began
to suffer from kidney and bladder
trouble. I had pains in my back and
sides and lameness when arose in
the morning. The kidney secretions
became irregular IN passage, / had
