HE man or woman afflicted with
L backache, swollen MUSCLES stiff
joints, rheumatic pains or other symptom
of kidney trouble is entitled to sympathy
and should have help.
Nature gives early warning of kidney
trouble by pufiness under eyes, spots
before the eyes, dry mouth, biliousness,
weakness and pale, waxy, dry skin.
1t is unwise to neglect the slightest
symptom of kidney trouble. Give the kidneys
