 When man awakens in the morn ing with back so stiff he can hardly stoop over, with shooting twinges in sides and groins, dark and puffed pouches under eyes-when his move ments seem slowed up and he lacks vim and energy-instead of saying, 'T'm getting old" he should be on guard against kidney trouble. E. R. Whitehurst, R. F. D. 1, Norfolk, Va, writes: "I had been suffering for more than year but since taking Foley Kidney Pills I feel almost a young man again"
