Doing Great Work. Florlsant , Mo. , Dec. 19th-Speclal ( ) ! ' -That Dodd's Kidney Pills are doing a great work In curing the more tel" I rlbl forms of Kidney Disease , such as j Bright's Disease , Dropsy and Diabetes , I everybody knows. But It must also ue noted that they are doing n still greater work In wiping out thousands ot cases ot the earlier stages of Kidney . ney Disease. Take for Instance , Mrs. Peter Barteau ot this place. She : : : 1 : - says-- saysI " -I have been subject to pains In my back and knees for about three years , but since I have been taking Dodd's Kidney Pills I have been entirely I , or cured. " " / , Others here tell similar stories In fact , In this part ot Missouri there are scores at people who have cured the 1 early symptoms ot Kidney Disease with Dodd's Kidney Pills. The use of the Great American Kidney Remedy thus saved Dot only the lives of Kidney . ney Disease victims , but thousands of other Americans from years of suffer- ings.
