There Is a Heap Of SoIace In Being
Adle to Depend Upon a Well
Earned Reputation.

For monts Owosso readers have seen
the constant expression of praise for
Doan's Kidney Pills, and read about the
great work they have done in this local
ity. Not another remedy ever pro-
duced such convincing proof of merit.
Mrs VIM. Fuller formerly living on
Rowley street, Owosso, Mich, says:
my back caused me a great deal of
suffering and at times the pains ex.
tended to the shoulders, and were So
severe at times that | was unable, to
rest. l suffered many accompanying
symptoms of kidney trouble and my
physicians told me that my condition
was very poor l procured Doan's
Cidney Pills and the backache soon left
me and feel like different person. "
From statement given in 1899
Confirmed Proof.
On Nov g. 1906, Mrs. Fuller con-
irmed above saying: II am glad to
again recommend Doan's Kidney Pills
as l have never suffered from severe
attacks of kidney trouble since taking
them. Some symptoms I have since
but they were quickly banished by a
few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills"
