A friend once asked "Uncle joe

prospects Of a politician who was at
that time generally thought to be

Many Lexington People Have
Done So.

When the kidneys are sick
they give unmistakable warnings
that should not be ignored. By
examining the urine and treating
the kidneys upon the first sign
of disorder, many days of suf-
fering may be saved. Sick kid

Sluggish kidneys cause a dull
