Canaan People Should Ask Them
 selves This Question.

Don't say: "It's just a cold" It may turn into backache, rheu- matic aches, achy joints
 Or other serious sickness that comes from weak kidneys.
 Colds are due to congestion. Congestion makes the kidneys overwork to filter the blood.
 Colds often leave the kidneys weak.

 Then use Doan's Kidney Pills to avert the kidney dangers.
