Get New Kidneys /!

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs OF the human body, and when they
fail in their work of filterlng out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the
system, things begin to happen.
One of the first warnings is pain or stiff
ness in the lower part of the back; highly
colored urine; loss of Appetite; indiges-
ton; irritation, or even stone in the blad-
der. These symptoms indicate a condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
malady, Brights disease. for which there
is said to be no cure.
Do not delay a minute. At the first in
dication of trouble m rhe kidney liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking
Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules, and
save yourself before il is too late. Instant
treatment is necessary in kidney and blad-
der troubles A delay is often fatal.
You can almost certainly find immediate
relief in Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules.
For more than 200 years this famous prep
aration has been an unfalling remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
II is the pure, original HARLEM Oil your
great-grandmother used. About two cap
sules each day will keep Won toned up and
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store, and
if it does not give you almost immediate
relief, your money will be refunded. BE
sure you get the GOLD MEDAL brand.
