Chas. B. Crayger, living on Rail

I used Doan’s Kidney Pills, my back
has not bothered me in the least.
For some time prior to using this
remedy it was very lanfe and sore,
s brought on
usually the trouble was
by heavy lifting. After trying sev
eral remedies without receiving re
lief, I used Doan’s Kidney Pills, pro
cured from the Mills Drug Co. and
they cured me. A short while ago
my-wife was complaining of back
ache and severe pains in the region
other kidneys. I knew that Doan’s
Kidney Pills would help her, so I
procured a box and she began using
them. They quickly banished the
backaches, and corrected the annoy-
sn e from the kidneys. I think
more highly of Doan’s Kidney Pills

from the estate of Mr. Bulloch’s I °n the market.”
