People with kidney ills wamt to be

lures of an aching back, relief is
eagerly sought for. There are many
remedies today that relieve, but do
not cure. Doan’s Kidney Pills have
brought lasting results to thousands.
Here is Covington evidence of their
merit
Mrs. W. H. Barnett, Odum St.,
says; “Some time ago a pain start¬
ed in the small of my back and gave
me a lot of trouble. I had headaches
and nervous spells and my head
seemed as if it were going around all
the time. Dizzy spells would over
take me and my kidneys didn’t act
properly. When I heard about Doan’s
Kidney Pills 1 bought a box at
Smith’s Drug Store. They not only
cured me, but put my whole systen
in fine condition.”
