the penalty of overwork. The heavy tax of overwork —the extra strain so necessary to many trades and occupation—is hard on the kidneys. The kidneys begin to fail in their work, and the poisonous matter collects in the. system. Tif your work seems hard for you ,if you have a lame, weak, or aching back,, if you seem tired and listless, if you notice sediment in the urine, unnatural colour or irregular passages and seem to be running down without apparent cause, begin at once with Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills, the remedy that has proved so beneficial to your neighbours. It has brought strength to the backs of thousands of working men and women. Read this proof. MR. J. FAKE SLOW, Marlborugh Street, Greymouth, says:—“For some time I had marked symptoms of kidney trouble. The secretions were disordered, being thick and cloudy and containing a rod sediment. There was also a constant nagging ache in my back which made every movement positive torture. - My feet swelled a goou deal, and there was puffiness under the eyes, and I always felt dull and tired. So much for my suffering, now for the medicine that cured mo. After trying all sorts of remedies without deriving my real benefit, I heard good reports of Doans’ Backache, Kidney Pills, so sent for a bottle at once. I took them reguhu'ly, carefully following the directions, and I soon noticed an improvement in my health, and a course of the Pills cured mo completely. Three years have elapsed since then, and I am still well, so my cure has been thoroughly tested.” Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills are sold by all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per bottle (six bottles 16s 6d) or will bo posted on receipt of price by Foster-McClellan Qo., 76 Pitt Street, Sydney.
