 Don't neglect an aching back.
 Backache is often the kidneys cry for help.
 Neglect hurrying to the kidneys aid means that urinary troubles may fol- low.
 Or danger of worse kidney trou- ble.
 Here's convincing testimony.
 C. B. Wright, 1052 Second St., San ta Rosa, Calif., says: "It was several years ago that I suffered from back acho and other symptoms of kidney trouble. had severe pains across my kidneys and at times I could hardly get up or down. The action of my kid. ncys was irregular, causing me to get up. several times at night. A burning sensation attended the passages of the kidney secretions. Several boxes oi Doan's Kidney Pills regulated the act ion of my kidneys and removed tho backache."
