BEFORE YOU NEED A QUART
HELP KIDNEYS
To Get Rid of Acid
and Poisonous Waste
Your kidneys help to keep you well
by constantly filtering waste matter
from the blood. If your kidneys get
functionally disordered and fail to
remove excess impurities, there may be
poisoning of the whole system and
body-wide distress.
Burning, scanty or too frequent uri­
nation may be a warning of some kidney
or bladder disturbance.
You may suffer nagging backache,
persistent headache, attacks of dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, puffiness
under the eyes—feel weak, nervous,- all
played out.
In such cases it is better to rely on a
medicine that has won country-wida
acclaim than on something less favor­
ably known. Use Doan's Pill». A multi­
tude of grateful people recommend
