Good news bears repeating, and
when it is confirmed after long
lapse of time, even if we hesitated to
believe it at first hearing, we feel
secure in accepting it's truth now. The
following experience OF a Wausau
woman rs confirmed after five years .
Mrs. Mary Sommerfeldt, 329 Fifth
Ave-, ~, Wausau, says: loft and on /
have used Doan's Kidney Pills and
they have always been of great help
to me. My back was so lame, l could
hardly bend and my kidneys were
weak and | felt badly in every way,
but Doan'S soon fixed me up. They
relieved me from the start and have
used them since with good results. !"

Sommerfeldt said: 81 always use

Why "Sninstar?u

The term "spinster" applied to an
unmarried woman is an actual refer
ence to the spinning, wheel. In oldep
times women We're prohibited from
marrying until they had spun a full
set Of bed furnishings, thus, before
their marriage they spent much time
ut the spinning wheel. ana were,
therefore, known as "spinsters.'
