GIVING OUT.
The Struggle DiscOurages Many a
 Citizen of Mena.

Around all day with an aching back,

 Enough to make anyone give out"
 Doans Kidney Pills are helping thousands.
 They are for kidney backache;
 And other kidney ills.

I gave the matter little thought at first, but when the kid ney secretions became irregular in passage, realized that I was growing worse. I then got box of Doan's Kidney Pills and within forty-eight hours after using them could see an improvement. I continued taking Doan's Kidney Pills, and before long was perma- nently rid of the trouble"

Avoid sedatiye Cough Medicines.

If you want to contribute directly to the occurrence of capillary bron- chitis and pneumonia use cough medicines that contain codine, morphine. haroin and otter seda- tives when you have cough or cold. An expectorant like Cham berlain's Cough Remedy is what is needed. That cleans out the cul- ture beds or breeding, places for the germs of pneumonia and other germ disease. That is why pneu- monia never results from cold when Chamberlains Cough Remedy is used. It has a worldwide repu- tation for it's cures. It contains no morphine or other sedative.
