GOING 1T TOO HARD?

Overwork, worry, overeating and
lack of exercise and sleep are respon-
sible for much kidney trouble. II
your back aches and the kidneys
seem weak, rest up and use Doan's
Kidney Pills.
+ c. w. Smith, proprietor of black
smith shop, State street, Ellsworth
Falls, Maine, says: 81 have consid-
cradle lifting to do while working at
the blacksmith trade and 1t finally
got my back in pretty bad shape.
There was a steady, dull pain across
my kidneys and l felt miserable all
through the day. My kidneys didn't
act regularly, either. I got Doan's
Kidney Pills and after using them for
a week or two, my. trouble disap-
peared. OF late, have been feeling
better in every way. Doan's Kidney
Pills toned up my system generally"
The above statement was given De-
cember 4, 1916, and on October g.,
1920, Mr. Smith said: II have just
as good an opinion of Doan's Kidney
Pills to-day as when 1 first endorsed
them in 1916. The cure they made
for me at that time has been a
permanent one"
