Unwise livinZoD i indigestible, ''foods, .overwork, late hours and the like are to blame. They create more uric acid than the kidneys can grapple with. For the kidneys act a-s blood- niters; when healthy they filter impurities from the blood, but they weaken if overstrained. Weak kidneys mean weak filtering which lets the'harmful uric acid back into the system. Wise living, reduces uric acid and will ease the kidney strain. But Doan's Backache Kidney Pills do the repair work. They strengthen weak kidneys en- a-blmg these organs to rid the body of the excess uric' acid. Swansea Case Oii-Dmemb-er O, ih-, I Mr. J. Hopes, of 680, Neatn-road, Llansamlet, Swansea.. sa-id:— "I was troubled with backache, pains were like knives run- ning through me, and were particularly bad when I came to get upright. There were urinary troubles also, and the kidney excretions contained a se diment. I started with Dean's Backache Kidney Pills, and found them splendid. The water became clear and natural after only a few doses, and I continued until my back was free of pain. I was soon quite cured. I hope this testimony will be the means of bringing relief to other sufferers." 17 Years Evidence On November 21st, 1918— seventeen years !ater—Mr. Hopes said I am glad to say Doan's Pills cured me effectively.
