FIRM FOUNDATION
Nothing Can Undermine 1t In
Mount Holly.

People are sometimes too slow to rec
ognize true merit, and they cannot be
blamed, for so many have been hum
plugged in the past. The experience Of
hundreds of Mount Holly residents, ex-
pressed publicly through newspapers
and other sources, places Doan's Kidney
Pills on firm foundation here.
Mrs. W. G. Mayer, Ridgway St, Mt.
Holly, N. J., says; ST suffered from
pains in my back, accompanied by head
aches and spells of dizziness. Although
l was constantly trying remedies, I
could not find one that would benefit
me until began using Doan's Kidney
Pills, procured at Jones' Pharmacy
They rid me of my trouble and it has
never returned"
Mrs. Mayer is only one of many Mt.
Holly people who have gratefully en-
dorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If your
back aches = if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for kidney rem
edy-ask distinctly for DOans kidney
Pills, the same that Mrs. Mayer had
the remedy backed by home testimony.
