fault--the difficulty lies with the kidneys,
and can be readily righted if taken in
the proper way. A Raleigh mother
shows you how:
Mrs. A. c. Howell of 215 L. Davie
street, says: MY little boy suffered from
a kidney weakness. The secretions from
those organs were thick and he always
complained of being unable to retain it,
and often wet the bed. He had sallow
look and his back ached a great deal and
he also had much headache. / had doc

worse instead of better. / noticed Doan's
Kidney Pills highly recommended in our
papers and I got box of them from
Bobbitt-Wynne Drug Company's store.
Before the boy had taken half of them
there was a decided change for the bet
ter. The secretions from the kidneys
became natural, he did not complain of
backache or headache, and there was a
wonderful change for the better in his
complexion. Doan's Kidney Pills are all
that is claimed for them and I will only
