Kidney disease often advances so
rapidly that many person is firmly
in its grasp before aware of its prog
ress. Prompt attention should be
given the slightest symptom of kidney
disorder. If there is a dull pain in
the back, headaches, dizzy spells or a
tired, worn-out feeling, or if the kid
ney secretions are offensive, irregular
and attended with pain, procure a
good kidney remedy at once.
Thousands recommend Doan's Kid
ney Pills. Read the statement below.

deep-seated pain in my back and

across my loins. My kidneys were
weak and l was obliged to get up as
many as six times at night to pass the
kidney secretions, which contained
sediment. I began to get discouraged
as none of the remedies I had tried
had given me any relief. / had been

When H. w. Reigel opens his new
market Tarpon Springs can justly
boast of having the finest and most
up-to-date meat market in the state OF
Florida. This is not stretching the
facts. There is not a market either IN
Tampa or Jacksonville which has the
elaborate and practical refrigeration
under every counter as has Mr.. Rel
gels market. The show cases in which
the meat will be displayed are all I'M
der refrigeration. The plant is sep
arate unit and even has it's private
water supply which comes from deep
