Some Astoria People Have Learned How to Get Rid of Both. Backache and kidney ache are twin brothers. You can't separate them. And you can't get rid of the backache until you our the kidney ache. If the kidneys are well and strong, the rest of the system i pretty sure to be in vigorous health. Doan'a Kidney Pills make strong, healthy kidneys. Jacob Moreloct, farmer, living on Rural avenue, between Hazel and Laurel street, Salem, Oregon, say: "What I said about Doan'a Kidney Pills three years ago after having used them for kidney complaint and backache which had troubled me for some time, was only th plain truth. I procured them and they acted up to the representation made for them and before I had used a whole box I found great relief. In a short time the action of the kidney se cretions was corrected and the pain and aching was removed from my back. I cheerfully recommended Doan'a Pills to anyone troubled with backache of kidney complaint" Plenty more proof like this from As toria, people.
