CHEERFUL WORDS
For Many Durango Household


To have the pains and aches of a
bad back removed-to be entirely free
from annoying, dangerous kidney and
bladder disorders, is enough to make
any sufferer grateful. The following
advice of one who has suffered will
prove helpful to hundreds of Duran
go readers.
Mrs. L. B. Lauderdale, 352 Fifth
Ave., Durango, says: "Sharp pains
darted across my kidneys, causing me
not little misery My back was so
weak that I could hardly lift. had
nervous headaches constantly and Of
ten felt languid for hours. l learned
Of Doan's Kidney Pills and. bought
some at G. E. Tiffany's Drug Store. I
was more than pleased by the relief
they gave me. / continued taking
Doan's until l was cured of the pains
in my back and was strengthened
wonderfully"
Price Soc, at all dealers. Don't simp---
ly ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
cured Mrs. Lauderdale. FosterMil-

STOPPED HIS BACKACHE

George Lawrence, railroad fireman,
hittrell, Miss, writes: 81 used three

Pills when / was so sick l hardly
could stay on my engine. My back
lched all the time; my kidneys acted
sluggish; dull headache; felt sleepy
all the time; nervous; had to rise six
% eight times each night. Foley Kid
icy Pills cured me-" They strengthen
The kidneys SO they can filter out of
The blood the uric acid and other pois-
ms that cause rheumatic pains, back
lche, stiff joints and sore muscles. -
