Not one so important to health. The kidneys are the filters of the blood. When they fail the blood becomes foul and poisonous. There can be no health where there is pi honed blood. Backache is one of the first indica tions of kidney trouble. It is the kidney’s cry for help. Heed it. Doan’s Kidney Pills are what is want ed. Are just what overworked kidneys need. They strengthen and invigorate the kidney»; help them to do their work; never fail to cure any case of kidney disease. Read the proof from a Jacksonville citizen. A. D. Houston. Merchant, formerly living in the North, part of Jackson ville, Ore., says: “About a year ago I suffered severely from backache and kidney disease. The action of the kid ney secretions was very irregular and I was otherwise run down. I procured Doan’s Kidney Pills at the City Drug Store and since using this remedy I have not had the slightest symptom of kidney trouble and have felt better in every way. I am glad to endorse a remedy of such great merit as Doan’s Kidney Pills. ’’ Plenty more proof like this from Jacksonville people. Call at The City drug store and ask what customers re port.
