Weak kidneys neglected In childhood lead to life-long suffering. People of advanced years, with less vitality, suffer doubly. In youth or age, languor, backache, urinary Irregu larity, dizziness and nervousness make life a burden. There Is one remedy that acts di rectly on the kidneys. Doan's Kid ney Pills owe, their world-wide fame to the fact that they have cured thousands of cases of sick kidneys and cured them permanently. Fol low the example of this Grants Pass citizen. Mrs. Esther Eads, 806 C street, Grants Pass, Ore., says: "I used Doan's Kidney Pills for backache and they gave me such great relief that I have told a number of my friends about them. I will always give this remedy my endorsement." For sale by all dealers. Price 50; cents. Foster-Mllburn Co., Buffalo,!
