** Gin Pills fo r th e Kidneys ” contain no gin. They contain no alcohol nor any harmful or habit-forming ingredient.. But they do contain Oil of Juniper (or ‘Genever'), from which gin derives its name. It Is this Oil of Juniper that gives to gin its diuretic properties. ^ By combining in ** Gin Pills fo r th e K id n ey s” th is Oil of Ju n ip e r , w ith seven o th e r well- Imown nnd t r ie d m ed ic in a l agents, we have p ro d u c ed th e m ost ef fic ac ious spe c if ic so f a r discovered in the treatment of all Kidney, Bladder and allied disorders that manifest them­ selves in the general symptom of ” backache.”


‘‘Gin Pills” arc not new. For 25 years past they have been amazingly successful in Canada in relieving severe cases where all else had failed. In Canada alone over half-a-million boxes of ” Gin Pills for the Kidneys ” arc sold every year ! ** Gin P ills fo r th e Kidneys ” will b r in g th e sam e re l ie f to you.
