Mrs. Alice Coffman, living on the west side, Cottage Grove, Ore., says; " I was in a miserable condition caused by backache and I suffered for a long time, unable to shake off the disease. I was constantly weary and worn cut. My general health became undermined and I could not got re lief. I became discouraged nnd none of the remedies I used gave me any relief. I happened to learn of Doan’s Kidney pills nbout this time and de cided to try them although I did not hope for much relief. I procured a box at Benson's Pharmacy and took them carefully. Before I had finished all of the first box I could see that they were helping me. I continued with this remedy and by the time I Imd finished the third box the dis ease had completely left me. 1 am today without a sign of kidney dis ease ami am very grateful to Doan’s Kidney pills.” - These two publications Fin nish reading lor a ll the family- Order to-day from U ,c L E A D E R , C o t t a G r o v e -and PERFECT GENERAL FEED STORE PRINTING HAY.
