WOMEN’S WOES.
Griffin Women are Find
ing Relief at Last.
It does seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches and pains
that afflict humanity: they must "keep
up,” must Attend to duties In spite of
constantly aching backs, or headaches,
drer.y spells, bearing down pain*; they
must stoop over, when to stoop mean*
torture. They must walk and bend and
work with racking pains and anny
aches from kidney ills. Kidneys eeua*
more suffering than any other organ of
the body. Keep the kidneys well and
health is easily maintained.
Mrs. Fannie Smith,of .2061 Third
Ave., Maeoa, Ga., says: “My back
gave me so much trouble for a long
time, particularly at night, that every
morning I felt tired and worn out.
The backache was always with me I
and the kidneys were out of order, the I
secretions being dark, full <rf sediment |
and hard to retain. I used * num-1
ber of linimenta and ftmedles but alii
with no tefect until I tried Doon’s Kid-1
ney i hadtevwttosd
and wellßpoaen at and which 1 pro-1
cured. Soon after I began taking them, I
1 noticed a wonderful change for th*
better. All the pain* were driven from
