THE MOST DANGEROUS
OF ALL DISEASES

No organs of the human body are so
Important to health and long life as the
kidneys. When they slow up and COM
mence to lag in their duties, look out!
Danger is in sight.
Find out what the trouble is-with-
out delay. Whenever you feel nervous,
weak, dizzy, suffer from sleeplessness,
or have pains in the back, wake up at
once. Your kidneys need help. These are
signs to warn you that your kidneys
are not performing their functions
properly. They are only half doing
their work and are allowing impurities
to accumulate and be converted into
uric acid and other poisons, which
are causing you distress and will de-
stroy you unless they are driven from
vOur system.

No Suggestions Needed.

Dallas was just old enough to begin
to take an interest in outdoor sports,
and one morning he was busily en-
gagged in making kite when his aunt
ventured to offer some suggestions in
its construction. Looking up from his
work, he said with the most profound
seriousness: "Aunt Milly, 1 don't want
no advice bout making this here kite.
