Homework is a Burden

The daily cares of keeping house
and bringing up a family are hard
enough for a healthy woman. The
tired, weak mother who struggles
from morn to night with lame, ach.
ing back is carrying heavy burden.
Many women believe that urinary
disorders and backache are female
troubles" and must be endured. But
men suffer the same aches and trou-
bles when the kidneys are sick.
Women are especially subject to kid
ney disease. Tight clothing, indoor
work. the ordeals OF childbirth, the
worry, and the STOPPING, straining and
striving Of Homework all help to bring
1t on. At first the trouble may be only
backache, sick headache, dizziness
and a drowsy, dull languid feeling, but
this condition is dangerous to neglect,
for dropsy, gravel and deadly Bright's
disease start in some such small way.
Don't be discouraged. When back
ache, nervousness and irregular or
painful passages of the kidney secre.

Kidney Pills, the remedy that has
brought new life and strength to thou

Deacon Philander of our church is

to be profane, says the Kansas City
