HOW FAR IS WARSAW? Not So Far That the Statements Os Its Residents Cannot Be Verified. Rather an interesting case has been developed in Warsaw. Being so near by, it is well worth publishing here. The statement is sincere—the proof convincing: Mrs. F. M. Sellers, 514 W. Perry St., Warsaw, Ind., says: “For many years I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills when suf= ering from kidney trouble, in fact, I would use no other remedy. Whenever my back begins to ache or my kidneys shou signs of disorder, I resort to Doan’s and it doesn’t take them long to relieve my trouble. The backache I have sometimes, almost puts me past going, making it hard for me to do my housework. I don’t have to take many of Doan’s, before I get all right again. I am always recommending them whenever an opportunity occurs.” 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Mil-burn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. (Advertisement)
