To Ailling Women
A little sound advice vill Lelp
many a suflerer in Fitzgerald.
No woman should consider her
self healthy and well ifthe kidoevs
are weak, Poisons that pass off
in the secretions when thie kidneys
are well, are retained in the body
wher. the kulneys are disordered.
If the kidneys and bladder beconie
inflamed and swollen worse troubles
may quickly follow. This is often
the cause of bearing-down pains,
lamenesss, backache, etc. Uric
poisoning is also frequent cause of
headaches, dizzy spells languor,
nervousness and rheumatic pain.
When suffering so, try Doan’s
Kidney Pills, a remedy that has
proven effective in thousands of
such cases. Let a Fitzgerald wo
man tell of her experience.
Mrs. Jane Hilt, 610 W. Oconee
Ave,, Fitzgerald, Ga, says: I
still think highty of Doan’s Kidr ey
Pills. They did me a world of
good and I will uever go back on

nearly three years ago and for
that reason, I willingly give per
mission for the continued use ot
my name.
