Mrs. Lolita Layton, residence 10 '

for recommending the use OF Doan's KID

For several months a dull pain in the
small of my back was often so pro-

mourning sharp twinges, and il | con-
traeted the slightest cold it was sure to
settle in the lOins, and morning after
morning was so lame and sore that
could hardly get up and attend to my
ordinary household duties. Every per-
son to whom spoke advised the use of
some remedy or some makeshift, and

but until | went to GOolfick's Mod

remedy acted directly upon the kidneys,

observatory has been subjected to al
verse comment. but on this occasion IT
is not believed to he blamable.
