ARE you RUN DOWN?
awaken to the Danger and Aid the
Weakened Kidneys.

Kidney sickness often runs you
down to the verge of collapse before
you know the cause. When you seem
unable to pin your mind 20 any task,
your back aches and you cannot do
an ordinary days work, it is time to
ask yourself this question: "Are my
kidneys working right?" The
answer may be easily found
Weak kidneys slacken their filtering
work and the uric acid eirculates
with the blood, in many cases, at
tacking brain, nerves, muscles and
vital trouble-begin using Doan's
Pills when you feel the first back
ache or first notice urinary dis
orders. This remedy has given new
life and strength to thousands.
Proof of merit in a Hurley citi-
zen's statement.
Mrs Glenn Woodford, So Iron St,
says: my kidneys gave out and l
was in misery, for backache was
sapping my strength. When | did
am work, shooting twinges went
through my kidneys. My kidneys
didn't act right Doan's Pills put
an end to backache and strengthened
my kidenys Doan's cured me of
the complaint"
Price zoe, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Pills-the same that Mrs.
Woodford had. Foster Milburn Co.,
