Work Wears on the Kidneys
Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Great
Service for People Who Work in
Barton.

Many Barton peoplework every day
in some strained, unnatural position
bending constantly over a desk-rid-
ing on jolting wagons or cars-doing
1aborious homework; lifting, reaching
or pulling, or trying the back in a
hundred and one other ways. All these
strains tend to wear, weaken and in
jure the kidneys until they fall behind
in their work of filtering the poisons
from the blood. Doan's Kidney Pills
are for weak kidneys and bad backs.
Their effective work in Barton is con-
vincing proof of merit.
Mrs. w. H. Alexander, High St.,
Barton, says: "Some time ago | suf-
fered from a severe, painful backache
which was brought on, I think, by
over doing at my homework. I suf-
fered considerably with sharp pains
when I bent over or Strengthened. [
