These physicians, too, approve every word of advertising you read, the objective of whtch is only to recommend Doan's Pills as a good diuretic treatment for disorder of the kidney function and for relief of the pain and worry it causes. _ If more people were aware of how the kidneys must constantly remove waste that cannot stay in the blood without in jury to health, there would be better un derstanding of why the whole body suffers when kidneys lag, and diuretic medica tion would be more often employed. Burning, scanty or too frequent urina tion sometimes warn of disturbed kidney function. You may suffer nagging back ache, persistent headache, attacks of diz ziness, getting up nights, swelling, puffi ness under the eyes—feel weak, nervous, all played out. Use Doan’s Pills. It is better to rely on a medicine that has won world-wide ac claim than on something less favorably known. Ask your neighbor!
