Don't Blame the Child.
Don't scold your children for
lack of control over ' the kidney
secretions. It is not always the
children's fault in many cases it
means weak kidneys and can
be readily righted. Read this
Salisbury parent's advice.
D W Morris, 801 N. Fulton St,
says: When my child was about
two years old it had an attack of
kidney trouble. The child's
kidneys were weak and the secre
tions were scanty. The trouble
became worse as time passed.
Finally I gave the child Doan's
Kidney Pills and it certainly was
wonderful how Doan's helped it
and in a few days had the kid
neys regulated and the child felt
and acted like itself again.''

remedy get Doan's Kidney
Pills the;same that Mr Morris
