The Praise 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. I 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 ev- | ery bone in my body ached and it was with difficulty that I could get around. I I 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, i used their medicine and applied lini1 ment without benefit and I continued to get worse and worse. One day I while in Decatur I was complaining ito a friend and he advised me to 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.
