No stiff joints or aching back
when you were young.
Yet now you are at middle age, or perhaps a little older. your back aches "fit to break". There are sharp twinges of rheumatism in your
muscles and joints. And you do not feel as well as thirty years ago, when you could romp with the youngsters and feel that life was really worth living. Why this great change?
Age is not wholly to secount for it, for we read in the newspapere every day, how people live to a hundred years of ago in strong, vigorous health. And so can roa, if you do as many thousands of others are careful to do, that is 10 keep your body in good health, eat with moderation, work reasonably, and take a reasonable amount of sleep.
Yet aran with cars socis people sufer from aches and pains of some kind, at one time or another. And thoro aches and pains often wapan kidney trouble. Such symptoms as constipation, hacksche, pains in muscles and joints, scauty urine, and such miserable afflictions sa rheumatism, lumbago, sciatics, burning inlammation of the bladder, gravel and gout. are all symptoms of kidney trouble, i the kidneys are strong and healthy, these affctions will nos-cannot come to you, but if the kidneys are weak they are able to do their proper work, and so the joints gel atid, and the back chica.
Get rid of those symptoms by getting the kidneys back to health and strength, and you will be able to ajor life to-day as you did thirty years ago. De Witt's Kidnoy and Bladder Pills will help you to do this for a certainty.
Thousands of people, many of them over soverty and eighty years of ag hars testified to the marvellous benefit received from De Will's Pills, which are made capressly for the kidneys and the bladder. And so thay girs immed-- iate relief to old and young alike, for they are so auto yel so geilio in action that they can be taken with advantage oron by the most delicato person.
Why is that Do Witt's Pills have cured so many thousands of so-called "hopelses" cases even when everything else has failed. There is a secret nad it is this. De Witta Pilla are scientifically compounded expressly to act on the kidneys and the bladder, what is more they get there, ---
When you take ordinary medicine, or so-called backacha" plis Fout often get poor results, for they never go near the kidinys.
.::
Now when you like Do Wit's Pills, you will notice, within a few hours, that the urine has turned a muddy binish colour. You know by tal positive proof that these wonderful little falls have passed through the kidonga and tho Bladder. You have the proof before your era.
From that moment Un cleansing of the kidneys and bladder commences and when the kidneys are thoroughly cleansed and healed of all impurities, the pains in your bark and joins will disappear just as surely as the sun will rise to:: morrow morning.
When you see the urine change to a muddy, bluish colour, a fexture which distinguishes Do Witt's Pills from all others; you know beyond all doubt that they have put their healing touch on the right spot-the kidneys and the bladder.
