This last summer | 'de. cided to give them a better and more thorough trial and procured a box at N. D. Sevin & Sons drug store They removed the pain and lameness in my back, corrected the disordered action of the kidney secretions and benefitod me. in a general way. I have on occa- sfons since, during indictment weather, felt slight return of pain in my back, but at such times I have always ap- pealed to Doan's Kidney Pills and they have quickly eradicated ths trouble. I have advised the use of this remedy to many of my friends s.nd always hear it endorsed highly"
