When Plattsmouth Citizens Show
a Way.
There can be no reason why
any reader of this, who suffers the
tortures of an aching back, the
annoyance of urinary disorders,
the pains and dangers of kidney
ills will fail to heed the words of
a neighbor who has found relief.
Head what a Plattsmouth citizen
says :
Charles L. Bates, farmer, Ninth
and Walnut streets, Plattsmouth,.
Neb., says: "Kidney complaint
seemed to come upon me all of a
sudden. I attributed it to a heavy
cold, which settled on my kidneys
and made them weak, causing the
kidney secretions to pass too fre
quently. I often had pains across
the small of my back. When I
stopped sharp twings darted
through me. I felt languid and
had little ambition. When some
one advised me to try Doan's Kid
ney Pills, I got a supply from
Rynotl's Drug Store. They soon
benefited me and two boxes made
a permanent cure. I can certain
ly recommend this remedy to any
once who has kidney complaint."
