I came West on account of the trouble, thinking the change of climate would help me but such was not the case. Nothing I did or took gave me relief and I was about dis couraged. On procuring Doan's Kid ney Pills I found them the best medi cine I had ever used. At the time I procured them I was suffering from an Intense burning sensation as if two live coals were p!aced directly over my kidneys.
