Read what a Lexington citizen says: C. A. Geiger, living on Depot street, Lexington, S. C., say9: "For several months I had been suffering from dull pain9 across the small of my back and as they did not disappear, I came to the conclusion that my kidneys were affected. At night after lying down my back would pain me intensely, and I also noticed an irregularity in the action of the kidneys. The secretions were much too frequent and I was feeling miserable when I procured Doan'9 Kidney Pills at The Kaufmann Drug Co. I used them as directed and they proved to be the remedy I needed. They have helped me so much that I feel I will soon be entirely well. It gives me pleasure to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills to other sufferers." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
