Good Health Makes a Happy Home

Good health makes house
work easy. Bad health takes
all the happiness out Of it.
Hosts of good women and
good mothers drag along in
daily misery, back aching, wor-
ried, blue" tired and worn,
because they don't know what
ails them or what to do.
These same troubles come
with weak kidneys, and if the
kidney action is distressingly
disordered, there should be no
doubt that the kidneys need
help.
Don't neglect yourself. There
may be danger of dropsy,

health. You can't afford to give
up. Try to avoid overwork and
