KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL
Health is Worth Saving, and Some
Dallas People Know How to
Save It
Many Dallas people take their lives
in their hands by neglecting the kid
neys (when they know these organs
need help. Wak kidneys are respon
sible for a vast amount of suffering
ana 111 health, but there is no need
to suffer nor to remain in danger.
Use Doan's Kidney Pills a remedy
that has helped thousands of kidnev
sunerers.
The following statement leaves no
ground for doubt.
Mrs. F. W. Fairbanks, Airlie, Ore.,
says: "I recommend Doan's Kidney
nils just as highly today as I did
when 1 gave my first recommendation
in 1913 regarding the benefit one of
my family received from them. Since
then, I have taken Doan's Kidney
Pills myself for a tired, bearing-down
reeling across my kidneys and they
have never faded to stop that awful
misery and put my kidneys in good
working order."
