Aching Kidneys Cured in Thomasville
"Entry Picture
Telit a Story."
If Your Back Aches and Your Kidneys are Weak,
Get the Kidney Remedy That Has Been Proved GOOD
Again and Again Right Here in Thomasville.
Thomasville People Tell

Are YOUR Kidneys Weak?
HOW TO TELL—Firs*, read the testimony and learn what
Down's Kidney Pills have do ne for others.
Then if your back aches. If sharp pains strike you when
stooping or lifting: if you are lame In the morning, tire too eaily;
If you have dizzy spells and are nervous, despondent and in
clined to worry over trifles; If the kidney secretions are highly
colored and full of sediment, if passages are too frequent, scanty,
paniful or scalding. It is likely that your kidneys need quick
attention. N
Take a sample of the urine and let it stand for 24 hours.
If a sandy, brick-dust like sediment settles to the bottom of the
receptacle, there Is evidence enough to suspect the kidneys.
