HELP FOR OLD BACKS THAT ACHE GIN PILLS Cure Them Age is no barrier to the wonderful soothing, healing properties of GIN PILLS, the great Canadian Kidney Cure. We have’on record many letters from men and women of 60, 65, 70, 75, 80 and over testifying to the great relief they received from taking GIN PILLS: Mr. Samuel Martin, of Strathroy, Ont., suffered for twenty years with misery in his back. Some months ago, he tried GIN PILLS and after taking only three boxes, was entirely cured. Mr. Martin is now 85 years of age and enjoys the robust health of a vigorous man of sixty, thanks to GIN PILLS.

All elderly people are troubled, more or less, with Kidney and Bladder trouble, and pain ‘and weakness in the back. GIN PILLS are a guaranteed cure for all these misfortunes. Money promptly refunded if they fail to give complete satisfaction.
