Help Th a t Bad Back!
It a bad back wearing you out? Are
you lame, achy, nervouH and depressed?
Suffer headache»; dizzinesa and dis­

too dangerous to neglect. Your kidneys
keep the blood stream pure. Once they
slow up, poisons accumulate and upset

If you suspect your kidneys, give Doan's
P ills a trial. D o a n 's have been used
successfully oyer th irty tive years. Are
recommended by thousands. A s k your
