share of evidence that no cas- is toe

after nearly a quarter of a century's
suffering. Mr.. Garlic says:

kidneys ever made.
II had Kidney Trouble for % years
and never found anything that did me
SO much good as Dodd's Kidney Pills.

There is no uncertain sound about
Mr.. Carlile's statement. He knows
hat Dodd's Kidney Pills rescued him
from a life of suffering and he wants
the public to know it. Dodd's Kidney
Pills cure all Kidney ills from Back
