If TESTED AND PROVEN i There Is a Heap of solace 10 being Able to Depend Upon a Well Earned Reputation. For months Kingstree readers have seen the constant expression of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have ' done in this locality. Not another remedv ever produced such convincing proof of merit. W R White, S Boundery St, ManMi ning. S C, says: "I can confirm the H| statement I gave regarding Doan's Kidney Pills in March, 1908, and B again say that this remedy acts just as represented. I use Doan's Kidney 9^9 Pills, occasionally when in need of them and they always help me. At ^^^9~one time my kidneys were so weak that I had but,little control over the kidney secretions. I suffered con9 stantly from backache and pains across my loins and mornings I was f so lame and sore that it was hard for I me to dress. If I sat down for a litr tie while, I had to lift myself up by ' main force. Nothing ever helped me until I used Doan's Kidney Pills. I They restored my kidneys to a nort mal condition and corrected all the other symptoms of my complaint." k For sale by all dealers. Price 50 ^ cents.
