Mrs. Charles Mason, says: "My back was lame and weak and it both ered me to be on my feet. My kid neys acted too freely at times and I felt miserable and had no ambition. I tried Doan's Tills which I got at Frkke & Co's. drug store and in a short time they made me feel like a different woman." (Statement giv en May 12. 1920.) On November 11, 1924, Mrs. Mason said: "My faith in Doan's. Pills is greater today for they have cured me of my past trouble." Mr?. Mason is only one of many Plattsmouth people who have grate fully endorsed Doan's Pills.
