Its presence there shows the kidneys are inactive. Don't dally with "uric acid sol vents". You might go on till dooms day with them, but until you cure the kidneys you will never get well, , Doan's Kidney Pills not only remove uric acid, but cure the kidneys and then all danger from uric acid is end ed. F. A. Sutton, 1125 Water street saiem, uregon, says: "For ten or twelve years rheumatism and kidney trouble were the plague of my live I could hardly move owing to the lameness in my back and had to come Into the -city to doctor for the trouble. Nothing seemed to bring me more than temporary relief and I was in bad shape when I procured Doan's Kidney Pills. They benefit ted me at once and when I had tak en, the contents of three boxes I was free from every symptom of my old trouble. My health is now better than in years." Komealti the rati..'
