Getchcll of this place relates a happy
experience which will be read with in
tcrest 10y all those who have n similar
trouble.
1t appears that last winter Mr..

and soreness in his back which grew
worse and worse till at last 1t became
very bad and made 1t very difficult for
him to get about at all.
After a time he heard of n new rem

friends and neighhors said had cured
them and he determined to try it. The
name of the remedy is Dodd's Kidney
Pills and Mr., Getchell has proven that
Il is sure cure. He says:
IL used two boxes of Dodd's Kidney
Pills according to directions and my
lame back was entirely cured and am
all O. X. again. Dodd's Kidney pills
are as good as represented"
This remedy is very popular here
and has worked some remarkable cures
