A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE
It is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more atten
tion as they control the other organs
Ito a remarkable degree and do a tre
i mendous amount of work in removing
the poisons and waste matter from
the system bv filtering the blood.
During the* winter months especia -
lv, when we live an indoor life, tue
kidneys should receive some assistance
when needed, as we take less exercise
drink less water and often eat more
rich heavy food, thereby forcing the
1 kidneys to do more work than .Nature
! intended. Evidence of kidney trou
i ble such as lame back, annoying blad
' I der troubles, smarting or burning, |
brick-dust or sediment, sallow com
-1 plexionj rheumatism, may be weak oi
) irregular heart action, warns you that
your kidneys require help immediate
ly to avoid more serious trouble.
Many physicians claim that an herbal
- medicine containing no minerals or
r opiates has the most healing influence
j An ideal herbal compound that has
had most remarkable success as a kid
r ney and bladder remedy is Dr. Kilmer
\ Swamp-Root. * • . ,

SIIIEIICIII FOR OLD PEOPLE
Old people, to overcome the weak
ening, debilitating effects of increa -
imr old age, often make a very sad
rnisUke in using so-called "remedies"
that contain alcohol and dangerous or
habit-forming drugs. Often thisstufi
because it livens and brighter them
up a little just after taking a dose,
leads them to imagine tnat it is doinj?
them good, when it isn't. Remedies
that rely for their sale on such deceit,
do harm, because the false excitemeni
of the nerves and heart leaves them
worse than they were before.
Rexall Olive Oil Emulsion is a rea'
medicine —a splendid, body and
strength-builder, especially good for
old people, because it furnishes to the
system ingredients necessary to re
build wasted tissues, strengthen the
nerves, give new energy and a younger
and livelier felling to the body. 1
dosen't contain a drop of alcohol noi
any dangerous drug. It may not
make you feel belter after the first
dose, nor perhaps for several days
But if you don't feel much better and
stronger before you have taken a
quarter as much as you have of other
medicines tiiat didn't help you, we
will gladly give you back .\our.money.
That's certainly a square deal
The lour Hypophosphites it contain
are used by leading physicians every
where in debility, weakness and liabil
ity to disease, to tone and strengthen
the nerves. Purest Olive Oil, one of
the most nutritous, most-easily-di
gested foods known, being taken with
the hypophosphites, gives rich tissue
nourishment to the entire system.
You who are weak and. rundown,
and you who are apparently well nov
but are liable to suffer from various
cold weather ailments, use Rexall
Olive Oil Emulsion to get and keep
well and strong. For the tired-out
run-down, nervous, emaciated or de
bili ated—the convalescing—growing
children —aged people —it is a sensible
pleasant-tasting aid to renewed
strength, better spirits,glowing health
If it uoes not help you, your money
will be given bacfc to you without ar
gument. Sold in this community only
at our store—The Rexall Store—one
of more than 7,000 leading drug stores
in the United States, Canada and
