Tells His Friends and Neighbors Of
 His Experience.

 Every Prescott resident should read what Mir. Miller says, and follow his example. He has used Doan's Kidney Pills and speaks from experience. Is there any need to experiment with limitations or untried kidney medi- cines?
 c. c. Miller, E. F. D. Star Route Prescott, says: "Last year I was in awfully bad shape with my back and kidneys. When in bed I could not turn over without catching hold of something for support. My kidneys acted irregularly and the secretions contained brick-dust-l like sediment. I used different remedies, but nothing did me any good until I used Doan's Kidney Pills. Two boxes of this medicine cleared up the kidney secre- tions and entirely removed the back aches."
