NEW STRENGTH FOR OLD BACKS

The greatest discomforts of old age are poor eyesight, deafness lame back, stiff, achy joints and urinary ills.
 Most often these troubles come from a weakening of the kidneys.
 The kidneys have a heavy task dur ing long life of Altering the blood and keeping the body free from the irritating effects Of uric acid. Kidney weakness usually gets little attention and it is no wonder if the kidneys break down.
 And when the kidneys are sluggish and weak, there is little comfort Backache is likely to become a con- stant trouble, lameness in the morn ing, pains when stopping or lifting, restlessness at night, too frequent and painful passages of the kidney secre- tions, and persistent languor.
 Rheumatic pains, stiff joints, dizzy spells and weakness of sight and hear ing are often due to the excess of uric acid in the blood. So are gravel and stone, dropsy swelllngs of the limbs and eXtremities, heart weakness.
