Rubbing the back won't cure back
ache
A llnament may relieve, but won't
cure.
Backache comes from the inside
from the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills getinslde-
They cure sick kidneys.
Here is proof that this is so.
r. Z. Ferrell. the Albany veterinary
surgeon living at 81 State street says:
although | have never been laid up
by kidney complaint [ have suffered
a great deal with lame and aching
back and haye felt like going TO bed on
that account often enough. This dull,
heavy pain was with me for several
years. The urine was also very dark
and sluggish and contained thick
sediment. tried all kinds of reme-
diee, and used prescriptions of my own
but without success Nothing seemed
to take hold until [ procured Doan's
Kidney Pills. They were exactly suit
ed to my case. Since using the pills /
have not been bothered with those
pains and the kidney secretions haye
been restored to a normal color and
consistency"
Just such emphatic end orsement can
be had right here in Americus. Call
