Tr.crc can he no just rea.scn why any

tho tortures of an aching back, the an
noyance of urinary disorders, the (lin

when relief is so near at hand and the
most positive proof given that they can
bo cured. Road what a Laurens citizen
Bays:
Lee Blthop, proprietor of general
storo on Mills street, Factory Hill,
says: ''lean from oxperieneo recom
mend Doan's Kidney Pills, My back
and kidneys have given mo great trou
ble for a long time, not only causing
me untold misery, but costing mo a
great many dollar?. Thcro was a dull
tcothacho like pain constantly across
the small of my back and iftcr titling
for a bit I could scarcely get up. Sharp
shooting pains sometimes ran down to
lirst ono knee and then anot'ic r, and I
never knew when it was going to
strike mo. The secretions from the
kidneys were too frequent in action and
disturbed my ?est at n'ght so that I
would ariso in tho morning feeling
worse than I did tho night bofore. i
tri.d numerous remedies bit did not
get any positive relief from anything
until I learned about Doon's Kidney
I'ills and procured them at the Pal
metto Drug Co's store. Th.-: next day
after using them 1 felt bette-., and con
tinued taking them until tho kidnoy
secretions becamo regular and nor
mal, I could go to bed and get a good
night's rest, and tho aching In my
back disappeared."
