Citizens Say.

To cure an aching back,
The pains of rheumatism,

You must reach the spot-get at the

In most cases it's the kidneys.
Doans Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys.
Mrs. Hiram L. Nef. living at 465
Main Street Norwich. Conn. says
Mr.. Neff speaks highly of Doans Kid
ney Pills and has been an advocate of
this remedy for a long time. For
good many years he was subject to
attacks Of rheumatism. This complaint
was confined to the region of his kid
neys and at times the pains were SO
severe that he could scarcely get
around. The stiffness and lameness in
his back made it almost impossible for
him to stoOp or straighten after stoop-
ing. The kidney secretions were veru
irregular in action, unnatural in ap-
pearance and caused him great an
noyance. Doan's Kidney Pills We're
recommended to him; he procured a
box from ". d. SEWN &, Sons drug
store and they gave him gratifying
results from the first. The pain in
his back was banished. ana the score
tions from his kidneys restored to a
