WHAT'S THE REASON
Many Opelousas People in Poor Health
Without Knowing the Cause.

The are scores of people who drag
out a miserable existence without
realizing the cause of their suffering.
Day after day they are racked with
backache and headache; suffer from
nervousness, dizziness, weakness, Ian
gnor and depression. Likely the kid
neys have fallen behind in their work
of flttering the blood and that Is the
root of the trouble. Look to your
kidneys, assist them in their work
give them the help they need. You
can use no better remedy than Doan's
Kidney Pills-endorsed by over on
hundred thousand people, and by your
neighbors in Opelousas.
Mrs. 7. Compton Chachere, Landry
St., 0pelousas, La. says. "A member
Of my family received splendid re-
suits from the use of Doan's Kidney
Pills, procured from Shute's Drug
Store. He was troubled for sone
time by irregular passages Of the
kidney secretions, accompanied by
pain IN his back. These troubles, |
believe, were brought on by hard
work and heavy lifting. The nse of
three boxes was so effective that he
was given a very high opinion Of this
remedy. He was relieved of the
pains in his back and the kidney Sc
cretions were restored to their nor
NAL condition"
