ALL OUT OF SORTS?
; So Was This Good Woman Who Tells
Her Experience .
All often women accept their pains
and aches as natural to their sex. They
fail to realize that weak kidneys are
often to blame for that backache,
those headaches, dizzy spells and that
tired, depressed feeling. Thour/.nds
have found new health and strength
by helping the weakened kidneys with
Doan’s Pills—a stimulant diuretic.
This case is one of many in this lo
cality.
Mrs. H. Moynagh, 1201 John Ad
ams St., Oregon City, Ore., says: “I
I used Doan’s pills when my kidneys
were out of order and I had severe
bachaches that made it hard for me
to do my housework. My kidneys act
ed irregularly, too. I read of Doan’s
Pills and used them. They soon rid me
of the backache and put my kidneys
in good working order.”

simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same that Mrs. Moy
' nagh had. Foster Milbum Co., Mfrs.
