.‘BAILY - NORWALK - GAZETTE. Backache .and Kidney Trouble While'Backache in itself is'not a disease, it indicates a derange- ment of the vital organs—it’s a symptom of disease. Kidney trouble, at any stage, is serious and neglect of the symptom means neglecting the disease. Curing a Backache means cur- ing diseased Kidneys and reliev-‘ ing them of congestion; This can be done in the early stages. Buker’s Kidney Pills are specific for the cure of Backache and Kidney trouble, if taken in time. It’s a vegetable remedy. Drug- gists sell them for 50 cents. Book about Backache for the asking.
