Do IT NOW.
Edgefield People Should Not
Wait Until it is Too Late.

The appalling death rate from
kidney disease is due in most cases
to the fact that the little kidney
troubles are usually neglected until
they become serious. The slight
symptoms give place to chronic dis
orders and the sufferer goes gradual
ly into the grasp of diabetes, drop
sy, Bright's disease, gravel or some
other serious form of kidney COM
plant.
If you suffer from backache,
headache, dizzy spells; if the kidney
secretions are irregular of passage
and unnatural in appearance, do
not delay. Help the kidneys at
once.
Doan's kidney pills are especial
ly for kidney disorders-they cure
where others fail. Over one hun
dred thousand people have recon-
mended them. Here is one of many
cases IN this vicinity.
Fl B Sommer, MainN street, Aiken,

Doan's kidney pills during the past
