The most superficial investigation will prove that the following statement from a resident of Rensselaer is true. Read it and compare evidence from Rensselaer people with testimony of strangers living so far away you cannot investigate the facts of the case. Many more citizens of Rensselaer endorse Doan’s Kidney Pills. Nelson Randle, N. Main St., Rensselaer, Ind., says; “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills at different times when suffering from a lame and acking back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. I was led to procure this remedy at Fendig’s Drug Store, by reading about its good work in similar cases. Relief soon followed its use and the backache and kidney difficulties were finally disposed of. Whenever I have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills since then they have lived up to representations. I do not know of a case where this remedy failed to prove of benefit.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents, Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo; New York, sole agents for the United States.
