People with kidney ills want to be
cured. When one suffers the tortures
of an aching back, relief is eagerly
sought for. There are many remedies
today that relieve, but not permanently.
Doan' Kidney Pills have brought last
ing results to thousands. Here is proof
of merit from this vicinity.
Mrs. James H. Jester, Glendale. Del, g.,
says For long time l underwent
much suffering from a painful back,
caused by disordered kidneys, Two boxes
of Doan's Kidney Pills made a positive
cure which has lasted. l have never
heard anyone complaining of similar
troubles without advising a trial of
Doan's Kidney Pills.
Price SOC. at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Jes-
ter had. Foster-Milburn Co.. Props,
