Service for People Who Work

Many Madison people work every
day in some strained. unnatural posi-
tion-bending constantly over a desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars
doing laborious housework; lifting,
reaching or pulling, or trying the
back in a hundred and one other
ways. All these strains tend to wear
weaken and injure the kidneys until
they fall behind in their work of fill
tering the poisons from the blood.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak kid
neys and bad backs. Their effective
work in Madison is convincing proof
of merit.
Mrs. Chas. Martin, COL Third
street, says: Il have used Doan's
Kidney Pills with very good results
and / am glad to endorse them. My
kidneys were in bad shape and / had
dull, firing backaches. My work
wore me all out and l had no energy.
My kidneys acted ~irregularly, too.

Kidney Pills and l found they were
just the thing for me. Doan's helped
