Gratnful for thia informat on
When your back gives out;
Becomes lame, weak or aching;
When urinary troubles set in,
Your kidneys are "in a bad way."
Doan's kidney Pills will cure vou. ,
Here is local evidence to prove it: (
Mrs. Martha Currington, of I7I8 (
South K st.,Tacoma, Wash., says: I can 1
cheerfully recommend Doan's Kidney j
Pills as a remedy which does just what
is claimed for it. Backache and dis- ,
order of the kidneys troubled me for a ,
number of years. There were other ,
symptoms which also showed that the ,
kidneys were not acting properly. I ,
used different remedies which were rec- ,
ommended to me by friends but I never
used anythine that went right to the
root of the trouble like Doan's Kidney
Pillls did. They can certainly be
relied upon and will bring satisfactory
results in every case where they are
given a fair trial."
