The Prase that Comes from Thankful Decatur People, One kidney remedy never fails. Decatur people rely upon it. That remedy is Doan’s Kidney Pills. Decatur proves it always reliable. Sam Ruggles, living three miles south of Decatur, on the road to Willshire. says: "I suffered for several years with what I thought was rheumatism. At times, I thought that every bone in my body ached and it was with difficulty that 1 could get around. 1 was so sore right across the small of my back and so weak that I was in constant misery. At times it became so severe that I could not leave the house. Stooping caused agony and when I straightened again I suffered more. I consulted several doctors, used their medicine and applied liniment without benefit and I continued to get worse and worse. One day while in Decatur I was complaining to a friend and he advised me io get Doan’s Kidney Pills, saying that they had cured him of severe trouble. I got a box at the Holthouse Drug Co.’s store and before I had used all of them. I could get around without a support and I continued using the remedy until all the aching, weakness and soreness were removed and I felt well and strong again. I have not had any trouble with my kidneys since I used Doan's Kidney Pills, and I can go out and work as well as I ever could. I feel like a new man.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
