Ooan’a Kidney Pills Have Done Great
8ervlce for People Who Work
In Atlanta.
Most Atlanta people work every day
in some strained, unnatural position—
bending constantly over a desk—rid
ing on jolting wagons or cars—doing
laborious housework; lifting, reaching
or pulling, or trying the back In a hun
dred and one other ways. All these
strains tend to wear, weaken and In
jure the kidneys until they fall behind

from the blood. Doan's Kidney Pills

In bad backs.
J. T. Ivey, tho well-known farmer,
of Loganavtlio Postoinco, Walton coun
ty, who has many acquaintances In At
lanta, aaya: "Though I am naturally
a very strong, healthy man, my back
has given mo a great deal of trouble.
There was a terrible pain In the small
of It. and often I was hardly able to
walk. Any over-exertion or a slight
cold always made it worse. I was con
vinced that the kidneys were at fault,
and tried many well-known prepara
tions, but none of them did me any
good until some montba ago, when In
Atlanta, I stopped at Brannen £ An
thony's drug store, at 102 Whitehall
afreet, also 30 Marietta street, and
asked their advice. Doan’s Kidney
Pills were recommended to me and I
got a box. Tho result of taking these
pills was fir beyond my expectation.
Before I used them the secretions were
In n badly disordered condition, being
dark colored and full of sediment and
bird to retain, especially at night, but
since taking the pills they have been
cleared i:p and restored to a normal
condition, and the retention Is also
perfect. My back Is strong and lound,
too. since taking the treatment."

Phlllppo had worked ceaeeleesly for
aix days and nights, with only a few
moments of sleep.
Just before the Csdrlc was due to salt
today, Phlllppo’* body could d< no more
work and he sank unconscious.
During the excitement the other
strike-breakers seized the opportunity
to escape and rushed for the great
doorways. There was a short, sharp
fight, In which the hired guards beat
back the weakened strike-breakers.
