St., Pendleton, Ore., says: Doan's Kidney Pills are by far the best kid ney medicine I ever used. I was trou bled from childhood, by kidney 'coui plalut. My hands and feet swelled, in fact, my whole body bloated and I had a great deal of trouble from the kid ney secretions. There was a dull pain in my back and sides and often after stooping I found It difficult to straight en. Dizzy spells and headaches were frequent and my nerves were all un strung. I rested poorly and on aris ing in the morning was tired and de void of ambition. As time passed, my condition became worse and it would be hard to fully describe the misery I endured. , I spent many dollars for doctors' , treatment and I also tried remedies of every kind but to no avail until I procured Down's Kidney Pills. This preparation restored me to good health, after visits to hot springs and treatment of every other kind had fail ed. I do not hesitate to tell of my experience and I trust that my state ment will be the means of helping other kidney sufferers." . For sale by all dealers. Price 61 cents.
