Many people never seem to get a good night’s rest They turn and toss—blame it on 'nerves’—when it may be their kidneys. Healthy kidneys filter poisons and excess acids from the blood. If they fail and impurities stay in the system—disturbed rest often follows. If you don’t rest well get and use Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Dodd’s help the kidneys so that you can rest better—and feel better. 134 Dodds Kidney Pills o & CQ (I’M PUZZLED, DOC. CAN you STRAI6HTENME OUT ON PELLET FEEDING? J 7 IT'S SIMPLE, FRED.
