urinary ills come, and there is an ever
increasing lendeocy towards diabetes

others of this wonderful* remedy be
cause for five years I have suffered from
Irregularities of the kl ineys which

caught cold. My back pained me severe
CJy aid my suffering was increased if I
aid any work about the bouse or strain
ed In any manner. I used plasters and
coosu'ted physicians but the benefit I
obtained was not permanent. I read
about Doan's Kidney Pilis and procured
a box. The first bos did me so much
good 1 procured a second, and it only
required three boxes to remove the
trouble. I have recommended th's re
