almost unbearable at time and | had
such acute attacks of rheumatism and
lumbago that | was unable to sleep

symptom pointed to disordered kidneys.
Nothing gave me relief until l COM
menced taking Doan's Kidney Pills.
Of course, at my age, | could scarcely
expect permanent cure, but it is gra-
tifying to know of remedy that can
be relied upon to bring relief. Doan's
