WOMEN'S WOES. ALBANY WO
MEN ARE FINDING RELIEF
, AT LAST.
It does seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches and
pains that afflict humanity; they must
"keep up," must attend to duties in
spite of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down !
pains; they must stoop over, when to '
stoop-means torture. 1 hey must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many aches from kidney ills. Kid
neys cause more suffering than any
other organ of the body. Keep the
kidneys well and health is easily main
tained. Read of a remedy for kidneys
only that helps and cures the kidneys
and is endorsed by people you know.
Mrs. M. Custer, of 138 W. Ninth
St., Albany, Ore., says: "I have had
no occasion to use Doan's Kidney
Pills- for nearly three years and think
that fact alone is proof of their value.
At the time I procured this remedy at
Foshay & Mason's drUg store I was
suffering from an acute attack of kid
ney complaint; the result of a cold that
had settied in my kidneys. I was so
weak and lame that I could scarcely
move from one place to another and
the kidney secretions were too fre
quent. . I used Doan's Kidney Fills
until cured, and in March, 1903, I told
of my experience in our local papers.
Now that, the cure hasproved perma
nent I am firmly convinced of the val
ue of Doan's Kidney Pills.". '

adjust the loss. Tomorrow morning
