It's a common error To plaster the aching back, To rub with liniments rheumat'c joints, Whon the trouble comes from the kid neys. Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney ills, And are endorsed by Laurens citizens. Robert Sexton, wheolwrlght and blacksmith, of 202 Laurens Street, says: "I can recommend Doan's Kid ney Pills for what they did for me. They cured mo of a very severe case of backache from which I bad suffered greatly and could find no relief. A nasty dull aching tcross U <?, loins bothered me day and night, and when through with the business cares of the day to go to bed and get a good night's sleep was something I bod not been able to do for a long time. The secre tions from the kidneys gave me trou ble, were dark colored, strong and full of sediment and disturbed my rest at nights on account of their too frequent action. I used numerous medicines and wore plas'ers without beneficial re suits. Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills ad vertised I went to the Palmetto Drug Co.'s s'ore and gDt a box. The ehange for the better was noticeable almost at once, and since using two boxes of them according to directions mv back has not aohed, the secretions have be come normal and I do not have to get np at nights at all.
