Again and again we have read of strangers in distant towns who have been cored by this or this or that medicine. Bat Lexington's pertinent question has alw) ys been "Has anyone here in Lexington been cured?" The word of a stanger living a hundred miles away may be true, but it cannot . have the same weight with us as the word of our own citizens, whom we know and respect, and whose evidence we can so easily prove. Mrs, Myrtle Harling, Factory Hill, Lexington, S. C., says; 4T can highly recommend Dean's Kidney Pills, for I have observed the good results that have followed their use. A member of my family had kidney and bladder trouble and his back ached intensely. He used Doanv3 Kidney Pills and they gave him immediate relief. We do not think there is a better kidney medicine to be had." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.
