worse and worse till at last it becamn
very bad and made it very difficult for
him to get about at all.
After time he heard of new rem.
edy for backache which some Of Ma
friends and neighoors said had cured
them and he determined to try it. Tb,
name of the remedy is Dodd's Kidna,,
Pills and Mr.. Getchell has proven thar
it is sure cure. He says:
Il used two boxes of Dodd's Kidney
Pills according to directions and nv
lame back was entirely cured and am
all o. X. again. Dodd's Kidney PIN,

This remedy is very popular here
and has worked some remarkable cures
