BACKACHE DOES NOT MEAN KIDNEY DISEASE

People who ara attacked with pains in i the lower part of tho back too often conclude that there is something wrong with the kidneys. As a matter of fact backache seldom or never means kidney trouble. Ileal organic kidney trouble does not develop a pain in the back. Doctors detect kidney disease by the excretions of the kidneys. Thin blood causes backache; also rheumatism, which is called lumbago, when the pain is in the loins. Every muscle of tlie body needs a supply of rich, red blood in proportion to the work it does. The muscles of the back a.r 0 under heavy strain and have but little rest. When the blood is thin they lack nourishment and rebel. The result is a sensation of pain in those muscles. Pains in tho back should always lead the sufferer to look to the condition oI the blood. It will be found in most cases . that the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to build up the blood will stop tho grumbling of the ill-nourished muscles of the back. How much better it is to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for the blooa than to give way to unreasonable alarm about your kidneys.
