WHY SUFFER SO?
Get Back Your Health as Other
Griffin Folks Have Done.
Too many people suffer lame,
aching backs, distressing kidney
disorders and rheumatic aches and
pains. Often this is due to faulty
kidney action and there’s danger
of hardened arteries, dropsy,
gravel or Bright’s disease. Don’t
let weak kidneys wear you out.
Use Doan’s Pills before it is too
late! Doan’s are a stimulant
diuretic to the kidneys, Doan’s
have should helped thousands. They
Griffin help you. Here is one of
many cases:
Mrs. Rupert Epps, 346 Meri
wether street, Griffin, says: “I
felt tired and didn’t care about
doing anything. There were pains
through my, back and when I
stopped I was subject to dizzy
spells and headaches. Black ob
jects floated. before my eyes. My
kidneys acted irregularly and as
other members of the family had
used Doan’s Pills I procured some
and in a short time I was cured.
I haven’t been troubled since. »

a good time to remind you that a

vacant lot, would be a very fine
gift for many wives and mothers.
