So sure, so positive. so quick and
lasting, are the results obtained from
the use of Croxone, that three doses
day for a few days are often all
that is required to cure the worst
case of backache, regulate the most
annoying bladder disorders, and over
come the numerous other similar
conditions.
1t is the most wonderful prepare
ton ever made for the purpose. II
is entirely different from all other
remedies. There is nothing else on
earth to compare with it. 1t is so
prepared that it is practically impos-

You can obtain an original package
of Croxone at triiing cost from any
first class drug store. All druggists
are authorized to personally return
the purchase price if Croxone fails to
give desired results, regardless of
how old you are, how long you have
suffered, or what else has failed to
cure you.

Even Most Chronic Sufferers
Find Relief After A Few
Doses Are Taken

Backache, urinary disorders, and
rheumatism, are caused from weak.
INACTIVE kidneys, which fail to filter
out the impurities and keep the blood
pure, and the only way on earth to
permanently and positively cure such
troubles, is to remove the cause.
The new discovery, Croxone, cures
such conditions because it reaches
the, very roots of the disease. 1t
soaks right into the stopped up, in
active kidneys, through the walls and
Innings; cleans out the little filtering
cells and glands; neutralizes and dis
solves the poisonous uric acid sub

muscles to scratch and irritate and
cause rheumatism; it neutralizes the
urine so it no longer initiates the
tender membranes of the bladder,
and cleans out and strengthens the
stopped up, lifeless kidneys so they
filter and sift all the poisons from
