That night he burglar izes the house, and the real truth has to be told. The clergyman for gives her the lie, as the criminal is led off to prison again.

Watch the kidney secretions.
 See that they have the amber hue of health;
 The discharge net excessive or in frequent;
 Contain no ''brick-dus like. sedi- ment.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are especially for weak kidneys.
 Let a Norwich citizen tell you how they work.
 Michael Cox, A Summit Street, Nor wich, Conn. says: q was in pretty bad shape as the result of kidney and bladder trouble about a month ago. The kidney secretions were painful in passage, causing me much misery and could hardly get around, owing to pains in my back. Reading of Doan's Kidney Pills I obtained a box at N. D. Sevin & Sons Drug Store, and in three days after began using them noticed improvement. The kidney secretions became natural and I was soon rid of every symptom of kidney complaint. I cannot praise Doan's Kidney Pills too highly
