THE PLAIN TRUTH
What More Can Barre People Ask Than
the Plain Truth7


When well known residents and highly
respected people OF Barre make such
statements as the following, it must car.
ry convictions to every reader:
Alvin F. Smith, retired, living at
10 West street, Barre, VT, says: II
have never relapsed into the desperate
condition that Doans Kindney Pills res
cued me from eight years ago. told
in a public statement at that time what
Doan's Kidney Pills had done for me
and every word was true. When one is
well up in years and suffers terribly
from pains across the back which are
especially bad when STOPPING over, and
d remedy is found which brings posi-
tive relief, it Is no wonder that he
should recommend it to others. Doan's
Kidney Pills, sold at Il. A. browns drug
store, brought me prompt relief from my
trouble, and although during the years
which have elapsed have had other at
tacks, have always used Doan's Kid
ney Pills at such time and never in
vain. OF course, hardly expect an
absolute cure, but can certainly recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills to anyone in
need Of such a medicine

Women who Wear Well.

Ii is astonishing how great change
few years OF married life often make in
the appearance and disposition OF many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which Is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect TO deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
rlage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain Is robblng the check
Of Its freshness and the form OF its
fairness.
