EVIDENCE
FOR LANGDON PEOPLE
The Statements of Well Known iangdoa Resi-
dents Are Surely More Reliable Testimony
Than Those of Utter Strangers Elsewhere

Home testimony is real proof.
Public statements of Langdon people
carry real weight. What a friend or
neighbor says compels respect. The
word of one whose home is far away
invites your doubts. Here's a Lang.
don statement. And its for Langdon
peoples benefit. Such evidence is
convincing. That's the kind of proof
that backs Doan's Kidney Pills:
j. A. Balgaard, resid ng on the
south end of Fifth street in Langdon
says: "a few years ago I had occa-
sion to use a kidney remedy. My
back was weak and aching and l
knew it was from my kidneys, be-
cause the secretions passed Irregular
ly. Hearing about Doan's Kidney
Pills, l got some of them. One box
rid me of he disorder and the pains
in my back left me"
