KIDNEY AND Chronic Sufferers Find Relief After Few Doses Are Taken If you are bothered with backache —or rehumatism, have disagreeable, annoying bladder or urinary disorders to contend with—or suffer with any other of the many miseries that come from weak kidneys, here is a guaran- teed remedy you can depend upoz‘x, no matter what else may have failed to cure you, It is a positive fact that the new discovery, Croxone, permanently over- comes such diseases. It is the most wonderful remedy ever made for rid- ding the system of uric acid. Pills, tablets, and other remedies at the best merely stimulate the kidneys, giving temporary relief. Croxcne removes tha cause and cures the troubles. It soaks right in and cleans out the e e ——————— T e e e DISCOVERY QUICKLY LURES BLADDER TROUBLES stopped up kidneys and makes them | filter and sift out all the poisonous waste matter from the blood. It neu- tralizes and dissolves the uric acid that lodges in the joints and musclss, caus- | ing rheumatism; soothes and heals the | delicate linings of the bladder, and | puts the kidneys and urinary organs in a clean, strong, healthy condition. More than a few doses of Croxone are seldom required to relieve even the | obstinate long standing cases, while "t cures the most severe forms of kidney bladdef trouble, and rheumatism in a surprisingly short time.
