Why Women Suffer
Many Skagivay Women "re Learn
ing tUe Cause
Women often suffer, not knowing
the cause.
Backaclie, headache, dizziness,
nervousness.
Irregular urinary passages, weak
ness. languor—
Each a torture of itself.
Together hint at weakened kid
neys.
Strike at the root—get to the
cause.
Quickly help the kidneys if they
need it
No other remedy more highly en
dorsed than Doan's Kidney Pills.
Here's convincing testimony.
Mrs. S. E. Ellsworth, D27 Rex
Ave., Portland, Ore., says: "I was
aii run down because of kidney
trouble and I can hardly describe
the pains in my back. Many times
I was so dizzy and nervous I could
hardly keep goiag. My sight was
often blurred and big black specks
c'UL'.e be ore my eyes. My sleep
didn't sgem to rest me and X al
ways felt tired and listless. My
kidneys were weak and my feet and
ankles became swollen. I used
Dean's Kidney Pills and was soon
completely cured."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same
that Mrs. Ellsworth had. Foster—
