ARE YOU NERVOUS? Ma be There is Cauae for It That You Can Correct Many who suffer from backache and weak kidneys are unnaturally Irritable, fretful and nervous. Not only does constant backache "get on the nerves." but bad kidneys fall to eliminate all the uric acid from the system, and uric acid Irritates the nerves, keeping one "on edge," and causing rheumatic, neuralgic pains. When suffering so, try Doan's Kid ney Pills, the medicine so well rec ommended by Alliance people. Read this Alliance resident's statement: Mrs. J. M. Scott, 714 Missouri Ave., says: "Though it has been some time since I have used Doan's Kidney Pills, I gladly recommend them. I have known of many peo ple who like myself have found them good. I suffered from kidney dlsor ders for quite a while. I had back ache, felt tired and languid and of ten was very nervous. Then, too my kidneys acted irregularly. Doan Kidney Pills gave me relief from these ailments." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Scott had. Foster-Milburn Co.
