IVJ OTHERS « ** • Keep the family free a from colds by using , ——-■ DON’T BLAME THE CHILD Don't scold your children for lack of control over the kidney secretions. It is not always tho children's fault—in many cases it means weak kidneys and can be readily righted. Rend this Decatur mother's advice. Mrs. Win. Murtaugh, 617 W. Winchester St., says: “One of my children was afflicted with weak kidneys from the time she was a baby. She was unable to control the kidney secretions at night, which was very annoying and caused much worry on my part. The first box of Doan’s Kidney Pills gave relief and three boxes made a cure which has been lasting. She is now entirely free from kidney trouble.’ Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills —the same that Mrs. Murtaugh had. Foster-Milburn ('., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. advt
