When there Is added to the many cares
inseparsble from the rearing Of children
that affection OF weakness of the kidneys
and auxiliary organs, the mothers lot is
far from happy one. This condition can
be quickly changed aud absolutely cured
by the use OF Doan's Kidney Pills. When
this is known the mothers burden will be
lighter and her home happier.
Mrs. Philina. Moon, surry road, three
miles from Ellsworth, says: sin Janu-
airy, 1897, after reading several accounts Of
mothers recommending Doan's Kidney
Pills as being excellent for children, got
box and commenced using them in my
amily. In one case in particular where
backache was very pronounced and kid
ney trouble uudou btedly existed it ceased
after the use of four boxes. During the
