It is worth considerable to any citi

of paiuful, annoying and itching piles.
Kr:ow then that Doau's Ointment i* a
po itive remedy for itchiness of the
skin, for piles eczema, etc. One appli
cati n relieves ami .-oothes. Bead th's
testimony of its merit:
S. M. Alien, Seattle, editor of the
Green Lake News, re-idenee 5905 Kirk
wood Ave., ' Doan's Ointment is without
an/ exception the best preparation I
ever used from p.rsonal experience, the
best of all teachers. I prove that it d ei
all that is claimi d for it. I was troubled
f..r years with itching hemorrhoids
commonly called piles. I tried several
remedies and was treated by physicans,
'but relief was just as remotely in the
distance the d*y I went to the drug
store for Doan's Oinlment as it wa
when I first learned of the prepara'ion.
The first application gave immediate
relief an'd short continuation so con
tracted the area affected, that although
there have been symptoms of a recur
rance since a few applications of Doan's
O ntmeLt never fa'led to bring the de
sired rel ef. I keep it on band all the
time."
