Doan's Kidney Vilis have given peace and comfort to many La Grande people. Profit by this La Grande resident's experience. Mrs. E. I. Shepherd, 104 Spruce St., La Grande, says: "I couldn't begin to speak too highly of Doan's Kidney Pills, for I have never found any thing their equal whenever I have had occasion to take a kidney medicine. Just as soon as I notice my kidney are not acting as they should and my back feel weak, I take a few doses of Donn's Kidney Pills and they re lieve the trouble." Price 50c at all dealers.
