come to this conclusion. A remedy

with the kidneys, can naturally be
expected to perform the same work in
similar cases. Read this:
Mrs. James Anderson, $40 Clay ST.,
Clarksburg, w. Va, says: ~ suffered
from pains across my back four or
five years. 1t was hard for me to do
my work on account Of the weakness
across my back. When i stopped to
lift up anything, the trouble was

me at Wells G Haymaker's Drug
Store. had taken only few doses,
when I could see that they were help
ing me. They soon drove the pain
away and relieved the kidney weak

recommended them before holds
