CORROBoRATION.

Or INTEREST TO UNION CRY READERS
For months Union City citizens have
seen in these columns enthusiastic
praise Of Doan's Kidney Pills, by resi-
dents Of this locality.
Would these prominent people recon-
mend remedy that had not proven re-
liable?
Would they confirm their statements
after years had elapsed if personal ex-
perience had not shown the remedy to
be worthy of endorsement?
The following statement should carry
conviction to the mind of every Union
City reader.
r. i. Gray, blacksmith, Hickman,
KY, says: For three years we have
had no further need OF Doan's Kidney
Pills in our family, for the cure they
made has been permanent. This RENEE
