A WORD WITH WOMEN
Valuable Advice for Glacier Readers

Many woman endures Win noble
patience the daily misery Of backachg
pains about the hips, blue, nervous
spells, dizziness and urinary disorders
hopeless of relief because she coesn q
know what is the matter.
1t is not true that every pam IN the
back or hips is trouble peculiar TO the
sex. Often when the kidneys get
congcsted and inhamed, such aches
and pains follow.
You can tell it is kidney trouble {
the secretiOns are dark c0lored, con-
tain sediment; the passages are too
frequent or scanty. Then help the
weakened kidneys. Don't expect them
to get well alone.
Doau's Kidney Pills have won the
praise of thousands of women. They
are endorsed at home Read this Hood
River woman's convincing statement;
Mrs. Andy Beatty, 722 Prospect
Ave. Hood River, Ore, says "a
member Of our family suffered from
bachacke, headaches, dizzy spells and
pans in the kidneys. The use Of one
