Cures that last are cures that tell.
To thoroughly know the virtues of a
medicine you must Investigate the
cures and see if they prove perma
nent. Doan's Kidney Pills stand this
test, and plenty of proof exists right
here in this locality. People who test
ified years ago to relief from backache
kidney an<l urinary disorders, now de
clare that relief was permanent and
the cure perfect. Can any Alaskan
sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
J. Prenatt, 311 Third Are., N., Se
attle, Wash., says: "The relief I re
ceived from. Doan's Kidney Pills over
three years ago, has been permanent
and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm
the public statement I gave in favor
of the remedy at that time. For two
years I had attacks of backache and
my kidneys were so weak that the
least cold I contracted settled in them
making my condition worse. Doan's
Kidney Pills promptly disposed of the
pains In my back and regulated the
passages of the kidney secretions. A
the present time there is not a symp
tom of my former trouble remaining.
I advise anyone afflicted with kidney
complaint to give Doan's Kidney Pills
a trial"
