PROFIT BY THIS
Don’t Waste Another Day.
When you are worried by backache;
By lameness and urinary dis¬
orders—
Don’t experiment with an untried
medicine.
Do as thousands of people are
doing.
Use Doan’s Pills.
Read this Forsyth is.idont’s expe¬
rience :
J. H. Stuart, retired farmer, Rail¬
road Ave., Forsyth, Ga., says: I
have used Doan’s Pills occasionally
during the last fifteen years and have
found them very reliable. When I
stooped, sharp twinges seized me
across my back and held me like a
.■ramp. I felt rur. down and was tired
out. My kidneys acted irregularly and
the secretions were unnatural. 1 used
Doan’s Pills and they gave me
immediate relief. I use Doan’s now
and then and they keep me free from
kidney disorders.”
