EVERY HEADACHE HAS A MEANING If there is one practice more danger - ods than neglecting a headache alto- gether, it is taking drugs, simply to numb the pain. Headaches are nature's warnings and serve a useful purpose. They tell of a function overtaxed or deranged. and the wise man or woman takes steps accordingly. When the Kidneys are not performing their natural function the blood stream becomes clogged with impurities -a fruitful cause of headaches, constant headaches, and more serious complaints if nature's warning is not heeded. The sufferer feels sluggish, unwilling to work, the back aches and there is a dizzy sensation on stooping. If the cause of the trouble is unchecked, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Swollen Joints and Ankles follow, until Gin Pills are resorted to and the Kidney action restored to normal. The beauty of the Gi-, Pill treatment is that first it will in all probability remove both headaches and cause second, if there is no cure, the simple remedy can do absolutely no harm, and yon have only to write the manufac turers and your money will be refunded Gin Pills are sold at 50c. a box or 6 boxes for $2.50 on the money -back guarantee.
