two years and takes you off of crutch-

good to say about it, and that's what
Tanlac has done for me, and I certain

the truth and let everybody know
about it,"
This unusual statement was made
by Mrs. N. A. Bishop, of Roswell, Ga,
who is the mother of nine children
and has a great many friends and &C
quaintances in that section. Mrs Bish

remarkable case and driven five miles
out in the country to the Bishop home
to investigate the report.

eAcKAcHE is DISCOURAGED.
But Not So Bad If You Know How to
Reach the Cause.

Nothing more discouraging than
constant backache. Lame when you
awaken, pains pierce you when you
bend or lift. It's hard to work or to
rest. Backache often indicates bad
kidneys. Cordele people recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills. Read this case:
r. B. Gary, Jr., Fourth Ave, north
Seventh St, Cordele, says: " / had a
dull pain in my back and nearly all
the time if | bent over, the pain got
worse. One Of my neighbors told me
about Doan's Kidney Pills and after
taking them, | was greatly relieved. .
