ARE YOU NERVOUS? Maybe There is a Cause 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 or the nerves," but bad kidneys fail to eliminate all the uric acid from the sys- , tern, and uric acid irritates the aeives, keeping one "on edge," and causing rheumatic, nehralgie pains. When suffering so, try Doan's Kidney Pills, the medicine so well-recommended by Conway people. Read this Conway resident's statement: Mrs. It. W. I.ane, Conway, says: "My kidneys were out of order. I had pains in my back and was sore and lame at times. I had ne;-v?us headaches and dizzy spells. Doan's Kidney Pills relieved me of all signs of kidney trouble." Price 60c, at all dealers.
