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

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
are not performing their functions
properly. They are only half doing
their work and are allowing impurities
to accumulate and be converted into

are causing you distress and will de-
