Thousands who suffer from backache
and kidney complaint have tried one
remedy after another, finding only tenn
porary benefit. This is discouraging,
but there is one special kidney medicine
that cures permanently and there is
plenty of proof right here in Delta.
Here is the testimony of one who
used Doan's Kidney Pills years ago,
and now states that the cure was last
ing.
Fred Jacobs, between 1923 and 331
Main street, Delta. Colo, says: ..In
November 1906, while living in Lead
vile, l gave a public state nent in
favor of Doan's Kidney Pills and at the
present time, can say that my opinion
of this remedy is as high as ever.
was bothered by dull, heavy pain in
the small of my back, more severe when
l first arose in the morning. There
were other symptoms which showed
without doubt that my kidneys were
at fault. Upon using Doan's Kidney
Pills, procured at the Peoples Pharm-
acy, the pain in my back disappeared
and all trouble from my kidneys ceased.
l have had one slight attack of back
ache since. but this was quickly dis
posed of by few doses of Doan's
Kidney Pills.

The son, clean-limbed, clear-eyed,
leading California insurgents in q
whirlwind fight for the governor
ship, and a new order of things, is
demanding the attention and adj
miration of nation.
The father, ite-haired, bowed
down with years, is throwing the
last of his old time fire and stub
bornness into a desperate effort to
be chosen once more to serve the
old railroad political ring in the
legislature.
The son is Hiram w. Johnson,
