WEATHER PROPHET?
Many Madison People Have Found
Their Kidneys to BE at Fault.

There is no other organ in the
body more susceptible to weather
changes than the kidneys. Colds,
chills, damp, changing weather all
play their part in bringing on kidney
ills. IF you would be well. keep
your kidneys we'll" is a golden rule
of health and one Madison readers
would do well to follow. If suffer-
ing from kidney sickness you can use
no better remedy than Doan's Kidney
Pills. This great kidney remedy has
been used for kidney trouble so
years. Convincing proof of its merit
in the statement of this Madison res
fident:
j. r.. Shaw, Third street, says:
The least cold / took brought on
dull backaches and sharp pains
through my kidneys. When l bent
over. l could hardly straighten up my
back hurt so. My kidneys acted ir-
regularly, too. When I read about
Doan's Kidney Pills, I used them and
it didn't take them long to put my
kidneys in good working order and
they relieved the backache."
