If You’re TIRED
ALL THE TIME
Everybody gets a bit run-down now and
then, tired-out, heavy-headed, and maybe
bothered by backaches. Perhaps nothing
seriously wrong, just a temporary toxic
condition caused by excess acids and
wastes. That’s the time to take Dodd’s
Kidney Pills. Dodd’s stimulate the kidneys,
and so help restore their normal action of
removing excess acids and wastes. Then
you feel better, sleep better, work better.
Get Dodd’s Kidney Pills now. Look for
the blue box with the red band at all
druggists. You can depend on Dodd’s. 52
