who is having backache, blue and
nervous spells, dizzy headaches and
kidney or bladder troubles, should
be glad to heed this Ellsworth
woman's experience:
Mrs. Alice Green, 6S Elm street,
says: II have used Doan's Kidney
Pills on two different occasions and in
each instance, they did me a world of
good. For many years l have been
a sufferer from kidney trouble and at
times my back nearly killed me with
pain. | was so lame, it hindered me
from getting through with my house
work. My feet swelled so badly
had to go to the hospital for treat
ment. / got better for the time be-
ing, but the complaint returned. My
bladder became affected and my kid
neys annoyed me in different ways.
My hands and arms had no feeling in
them and would cramp and get pain
full A friend suggested l try Doan's
Kidney Pills, so l began using them.
This remedy seemed to be just what I
required and after using three boxes,
my troubles were ended"

MORE MEN THAN WOMEN
HAVE APPENDICITIS

Medical reports show men are
more subject to appendicitis al
though many sudden cases occur
among women. 1t can be guarded
against by preventing intestinal in
lection. The intestinal antiseptic,
Adler-i-ka, acts on BOTH upper and
lower bowel, removing all foul, de-
caying matter which might cause in
lection. It brings out matter you
never thought was in your system
and which may have been poisoning
you for months. Adler-i-ka is Elk
