Hammond, Ind., says: "Why will women suffer from kidney disease and other allied troubles when they have such a grand remedy right at hand, in Doan's Kidney Pills. Perhaps they were like myself. 1 felt weak and miserable for a long time but never stopped to ask myself the question, 'Are my kidneys the cause of all my trouble?" I went right on suffering until at last I had to seek relief. I gave every remedy I thought would help me, a trial, but without being helped in the least. My back was Just as weak and I ached just as much as before I tried them. Finally I heard about Doan's Kidney Pills and how many cases of kidney disease they had cured, even after doctors had failed. I decided to try them even though I was not sure that my kidneys were the cause of my trouble. I procured them at Bicknell & Co.'s drug store and I commenced to feel better soon after I began taking them, and before I had used the contents of one box the benefit I had received was unmistakable. I used in all three boxes and by that time I was cured. My back became strong and the pains and nervousness were tilings 'of the past. 1 advise all suffering women to try Doan's Kidney Pills." - For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
