ERY CALL
Independence People Hava Found
That This Is True
A cold, a strain, a sudden wrench.
A little cause may hurt the kidneys.
Spells of backache often follow.
Of some irregularity of the urine.
A certain remedy for such attacks.
A medicine that answers every call.
Is Doan's Kidney Pills, a true spe
cific. Many Independence people rely on it.
Here is Independence proof:
Mrs. Sarah Burrlght, Independence,
Ore., says: "We have used Doan's
Kidney Pills and have found them
to be an excellent remedy for kidney
complaint. My husband suffered from
a lame back and received but little
relief from remedies he tried. My
son also had a weakness of the kid
neys' and In both instances Doan's
Kidney Pills cured the trouble. I was
bothered by a bearing-down pain in
my hips and a tired and languid feel
ing. I procured Doan's Kidney Pills
at P. M. Kirkland'g Drug Store, took
them as directed and they cured me
promptly. I am glad to recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills.
