To have the pains and aches of a
bad back removed-to be entirely free
from annoying, dangerous urinary dis
orders, is enough to make any kidney
sufferer grateful The following ad-
vice of one who has suffered will
prove helpful to hundreds of Westmin-
ster readers.
Mrs. Charles Helderbridle, Carroll
St, Westminster, says: About two
years ago I had a very bad case of
backache. The sharp pains that shot
through the small of my back felt like
the thrust of a knife. I was bothered
very much during the night. The
kidney secretions were unnatural and
L was in terrible shape. At last a
friend told me of Doan's Kidney Pills
and | got box at Moore's Drug Store.
After using them I found great relief.

medicine and should be used by all
