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

AS one weak link weakens a 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
poisoning circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills come, and there is an ever
increasing tendency towards diabetes
and fatal Bright's disease. There is
no real help for the sufferer except
kidney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly ON
the kidneys and cure every kidney ill.
No need to take the statement of
someone living far away as evidence.
Here's a case right in this locality.
William Cleveland, carpenter. of Mil
bank. n. Oak, says: 81 first learned
of Doan's Kidney Pills about seven
years ago, while working in Mime
sofa. At that time I was suffering a
great deal from kidney disease and at
times could scarcely attend to my work.
There were sharp pains through my
loins and l had a weakness in my
back. A fellow workman told me of
Doan's Kidney Pills and I began using
them. They gave me prompt relief
and at length effected a cure. Some
time ago I had an attack of rheuma.
tism. causing a stiffness in my
muscles and joints. l again took
Doan's kidney Pills and the
result was just as satisfactory as
before. I am in better health today
than I have been in twenty years and
owe it all to Doan's Kidney Pills.

Much sickness is of nervous
origin. It's the nerves that
make the heart force the blood
through the veins, the lungs
take in oxygen, the stomach di-
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
If any of these organs are weak,
it is the fault of the nerves
through which they get their
strength. DR.. Miles Nervine is
a specific for the nerves. 1t
soothes the irritation and assists
in the generation of nerve force.
Therefore you can hardly miss
it if you take DR.. Miles Nervine
when sick. Get a bottle from
your druggist. Take it all ac-
cording to directions, and # it
does, not benefit he will return

ter a goodly number of games. the
winners were found to be H. II. Car

they all agreed to patrOnize charity
and refused to divulge the name. After
cards, refreshments We're served, and
the order of same was indeed fine.
All agreed that this, the first social

this city, was indeed a success, and we
may now hear of similar events in the
