mop Of hair hung low over his eyes,
with which he squinted horribly.
So Ill favored was the boy that he
moved easy going John Oakley to pro-
testations Of disgust
"By Georger' he said to Freddy Fur
nival "That Office boy Of yours Is a
freak. May l ask what on earth In
duced you to hire hlm?"
"You may" Freddy replied. "The
sole consideration was that he's a
member of the Benvenuto Cellini cir

second, how by precept and example

He felt in his pockets for some ciga-

the lad q quarter. "Get some ciga-

"You don't mean to say you feed him

He Remoued the
Danger Signoi

"I suffered long time with
a very weak back" writes Fred
smith. 325 Main ST.. Green Bay, WIS.
"A few boxes OF Foley Kidney Pills
completely relieved me of all soreness
and pain in the back. and now l am
as strong and well as ever"
One cannot help becoming nervous
and feeling tired and worn out when
the kidneys fail 10 filter and throw
out Of the system the poisonous waste
matter that causes kidney troubles
and bladder ailments.
Backache is one OF Natures danger
signals that the kidneys are clOSged
up and inactive. 1t is often followed
by rheumatism, annoying bladder or
urinary disorders. puffy swellingS
under the eyes. swollen ankles and
painful joints.
Foley Kidney Pills get right at the
source OF trouble. They invigorate
the kidneys to healthy action and
when the kidneys properly perform
their functions the poisonous waste
matter is eliminated from the system.
