People Are Doing AH They Can For Fellow Sufferers. O’Neill testimony has been publish ed to prove the merit of Doan’s Kid ney Pills to others in O’Neill who suf fer from bad backs and kidney ills. Lest any sufferer doubt this evidence of merit, we produce confirmed proof —statements from O’Neill people who. again endorse Doan’s Kidney Pills— confirm their former testimony. Here’s an O’Neill case: Mrs. E. B. Jones, says: “I suffered with backache. While sitting still the trouble wasn’t so bad but when I went to get up I could hardly stand the sharp knife-like pains. When I bent or walked around the misery was ter rible. My kidneys were in a disor dered condition. I got Doan’s Kidney Pills and after using a couple boxes the trouble was all gone.” FOUR YEARS LATER, Mrs. Jones said: “I think Doan’s Kidney Pills are a wonderful remedy. I gladly confirm my former statement in which I told what Dban’s had done for me.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simlply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—rthe same that Mrs. Jones had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.
