HEED THE WARNING
Many Heppner People
Have Done So.

When the kidneys are sick they
give unmistakable warnings that
should not be ignored. By ex-

the kidneys upon the first sign
of disorder, many days of suffer-

expel dark, ill-smelling urine,

small of the back, headaches, diz-
zy spells, tired, languid feelings
and frequent rheumatic twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for
the kidneys only. If you suffer
from any of the above symp-
