HIDDEN DANGERS
Nature Gives Timely Warnings
That No Jacksboro Citizen
Can Afford to Ignore.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 1 comes
from the kidney secretions. They
will warn you when the kidneys
are weak. Well kidneys excrete
a clear, amber fluid. Disordered
kidneys send out a thin, pale and
foamy, or a thick, red, ill-smelling
urine, full of sediment and irreg-
ular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Back pains, dull
and heavy, or sharp and acute,
suggest weak kidneys and in that
case warn you of the danger of
dropsy, gravel and Bright’s dis-
ease. Doan’s Pills are endorsed
by thousands. Here’s Jacksboro
proof:
Mrs. R. H. Austin says: “I have
had occasion to use Doan’s
Pills for different annoyanc-
es, caused from irregular action
of my kidneys and I think there
is nothing as good.”

Mrs. George S. Hunter, of
Columbus, Ga., says she suf-
fered severely with female
troubles.
“I had to go to bed and
stay sometimes two weeks e.t
a time,” says Mrs. Hunter.
“I could not work. My . . .
were irregular and I got very
thin. I went from 126 pounds
down to less than 100. My
mother had been a user of
CARDUI
The Woman’s Tonic
•
and she knew what a good
medicine it was for this troub-
le, so she told me to get
some and take it. I sent to
the store after it and before
I had taken the first bottle
up 1 began to improve. My
side hurt less and 1 began to
mend in health. I took four
bottles in all during the last
ten months. Cardui acted as
a fine tonic... 1 am well now.
I have gained ten pounds and
am stifl gaining. My sides
do not trouble me at all and
my . . . are quite regular. 1
know that Cardui will help
others suffering from the
same trouble.”
