Spells of headache, sideache, back

Sometimes rheumatic pai- s;
Often urinary disorders,
All tell vou plainly the kidneys are
sick.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney
ills.
Here Is Proof:
Mrs. E. Leinback, Widow, of 3o4
Jefferson street. Olympia, Was>., says:
"Last summer, headaches, dizzy spells,
backache and too frequent action of the
kidnevs together with a general run
down feeling made me aware that my
kidneys were not properly performing
their functions. When I called several
months ai>o for Doan's Kidney Pills I
was suffering the greatest misery and
could scarcely get about the house
This one box gave me so much relief
that I followed it up with a second and
I am happy to siy that the Pills effected
a complete cure, or at least, up to the
present time I have felt no symptoms of
a recurrence, an! have no reason to fear
ihat there will be any. They are the
finest medicine 1 have ever known."
