ENDORSED AT HOME
Such Proof as This Should Convince
Any Emmett Citizen

The public endorsement of a local
citizen is the best proof that can be
produced. None better, more stronger
can be had When a man comes for
ward and testifies to his fellow-citi-
zens, addresses his friends and neigh
bors, you may be sure he is thorough
ly convinced or he would not do so.
Telling ones experience when it is for
the public good is an act of kindness
that should be appreciated. The fol-
lowing statement given by a resident
of Emmett adds one more to the many
cases of Home Endorsement which
are being published about Doan's Kid
ney Pills. Read it.
