Snatched from Deaths Door After

couraged and did not care what hap
pened to me, as my FAMILY had given
me up to die. was in that condition
when I commenced using Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills.
81 was nervous and troubled with
acute pain in the back and loins and
had severe headaches and dizzy spells.
The kidney secretions became thick
and stringy, and the passages attended
with intense pain. 1 commenced suf-
fering from terrible dropsical swelling
in my whole body. At times my body
would be so bloated that I could not
get my waist bands to meet. I tired
easily and the slightest exertion made
my heart beat like a trip hammer. II
was in constant pain from my back up
to my neck and the base of the brain.
I had no appetite and gradually grew
weak until I was unable to get around.
Ny skin was hot and dry and I drank
large quantities of water.
81 was in this dreadful condition
when Doan's Backache Kidney Pills
were recommended to me. 1 bought a
box and at the end of a weeks treat
ment thought 1 could notice an i'm
provement in my condition. When I
had taken the contents of the second
box began TO sleep soundly at night,
the kidneys became more active, and
the bloating began to disappear. The
urine became clear, my general health
improved wonderfully, and by the time
had taken twelve boxes of Doan's
Backache Kidney Pills I felt better
than 1 had before in fifteen years. I
no longer had the pain in the back,
headache, dizzy spells, and am today
at the age of 65 years in perfect
health.'
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are for
sale by all chemists and storekeepers
at so cents per box, six boxes $3.50, or
they will be mailed on receipt Of price

horses were made to swim the entire
