DEEDS, NOT WORDS. Decatur People Have Absolute Proof of Deeds at Home. It's not words, but deeds that prove true merit. The deeds of Doan's Kidney Pills. For Decatur kidney sufferers. Have made their local reputation. Proof lies in the testimony of Decatur people who have been cured to stay cured. Mrs. Catherine Contor, of 227 First street, Decatur. Ind., says: “I have used Doan's Kidney Pills with very beneficial results and can recommend them highly. In 1902 I gave a statement telling what Doan’s Kidney Pills had done for me and how they cured me of kidney complaint and backache. I had suffered some time and everything I tried failed to help me. I got a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills at the Holthouse Drug Co.’s store and they benefited me almost immediately and in a short time cured me, and I am able to state now that the cure has remained permanent.” For sale by all dealers.
