How it was Made and Retained in

.L
a good reputation Is not wisely
earned, and It was only by hard,
consistent work among our citizens
that Doan's Kidney Pills won their
way to the proud distinction attained
in this locality. The public endorse
ment of scores Of Mexico residents has
rendered Invaluable service TO the
community. Read what this citizen
says:
o. II. Neal, mail carrier between
Mexico and Cant, says: Il had pain
in my back, just across my loins, at
times so bad that 1 could not get up
without taking hold Of something. IL
chung to me persistently for at
least three Yeas, and when the at
tacks were unduly severe the kidney
~secretions were highly colored and
contained a sediment. / went to
Buckner & Whitney's drug store for
Doan's Kidney Pills and took them
according to directions. After the
second dose could notice a change for
the better and when l had completed
the treatment the pains and aches left
me. l am feeling better than | was
