It's magnitude and the efficiency and
military precision that marked its

companies of the county were all
well represented, though we regret

I used Doan's Kidney Pills, and l will
always remember the help they gave
me-. l had suffered with attacks of
backache and my kidneys annoyed me
by acting ~irregularly. After that had
gone on for awhile began having
rheumatic pains like sciatica. The
best remedy that I could find for that
trouble was Doan's Kidney Pills.
Doan's gave me excellent results in
