IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY
KIDNEYS
Stanford Readers Should Learn e
Keep the Kidney. Well.

The kidneys have a big work to
do. All the blood in the body is
coursing through the kidneys con-
stantly TO be freed Of poisonous mat
ter. It is heavy enough task when
the kidneys are well, but a cold, chill,
fever or some thoughtless exposure Is
likely to irritate. inhame and congest
the kidneys and interrupt the puri-
flying work.
Then the aching frequently begins
and is often accompanied by some ir-
regularity Of the urine-too frequent
passages, sediment or retention.
Thousands testify TO the wonderful
merit Of Doan's Kidney Pills, rem
edy for the kidneys only, that has
been used in kidney troubles 80
years You will make no mistake in
following this Stanford citizens adj
vice.
