May Warn of Disordered
Kidney Action
Modern life with Its hurry and worry.
Irregular habits, Improper eating and
drinking—its risk of exposure and Infec

and other impurities from the life-giving
blood.
You may suffer nagging backache,
headache, disxinesa, getting up nights,
leg pains, swelling—feel constantly
tired, nervous, all worn out. Other signs
of kidney or bladder disorder are some
times burning, scanty or too frequent
urination.
Try Doan’t Pills. Doan’t help ths
kidneys to pass off harmful excess body
waste. They have had more than half a
century of public approval. Are recom
