My back ached and pained me all the time and mornings was so lame I could hardly dress myself. 1 used several remedies but il was Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at the Green & Horsey Drug Co. that gave me the most benefit. Since taking them I do not have to get up at nighl to pass the kidney secretions, my back is stronger and I can rest well.
