WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK BODIES. Kidney Diseases Cause Half The Com. mon Aches And ills Of Wing. ham People. As one weak link weakens a chain, so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten the final breaking - down. Overwork, strains, colds and other Causes injure the kidneys, and when their activity y i is lessenedthe whole body suffers front the excess of uric poison circulated in the blood, Aches and pains and languor and nrinary ills come, and there is a aver- inereasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Bright's diseat#e. There is no real help for the sufferer except kidney help. Booth's Kidney Pills act directly on the kidneys and cure every kidney i11. Wingham cures are the proof. T. Dewitt Holmes of Victoria Ave., Wingham, Ont., says:—"I had felt Miserable for some time with lumbago. It had settled across the small part of my back and' in the region of the kids neys. I could not stoop. over at times and when 1 would for wsitanylength of bine I mild scareel et up, The yg p urine plainly told the disordered state of the kidneys and although I had tried several kidney remedies I found nothing to give the desired results un- til on recommendation of out- drn gist, Mr.clGibbon I used teeth's Kidney Pills, The one box airetee uckl and entirely.

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK BODIES. Kidney Diseases Cause Half The Com. mon Aches And ills Of Wing. ham People. As one weak link weakens a chain, so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten the final breaking - down. Overwork, strains, colds and other Causes injure the kidneys, and when their activity y i is lessenedthe whole body suffers front the excess of uric poison circulated in the blood, Aches and pains and languor and nrinary ills come, and there is a aver- inereasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Bright's diseat#e. There is no real help for the sufferer except kidney help. Booth's Kidney Pills act directly on the kidneys and cure every kidney i11. Wingham cures are the proof. T. Dewitt Holmes of Victoria Ave., Wingham, Ont., says:—"I had felt Miserable for some time with lumbago. It had settled across the small part of my back and' in the region of the kids neys. I could not stoop. over at times and when 1 would for wsitanylength of bine I mild scareel et up, The yg p urine plainly told the disordered state of the kidneys and although I had tried several kidney remedies I found nothing to give the desired results un- til on recommendation of out- drn gist, Mr.clGibbon I used teeth's Kidney Pills, The one box airetee uckl and entirely. The lutimba o soon went ant of Pity' back and here has not been it, sign of it since. Booth's Kidney Pills ars Certainly a grand remedy and I feel grateful in mem- ding thein."
