The facts below are worth a perusal by all who arc anxious about their physical condition or are similarly situated to this Resident of Union. It is a local occurrence and can be thoroughly investigated. John K. Petty, of Excelsior knitting mills, says: "I suffered an attack of measles twenty years ago, and it left me with a case of kidney complaint. The result was a lame, weak and aching back and I have endured agony from it. Doan's Kidney Pills which I ftrocured at Holmes Pharmacy have >een a blessing to me. They brought me the first relief I have experienced in all these twenty years. My wife also suffered severely from backache and there were other evidences of kidney disorders. The secretions were irregular and contained a sediment. Since taking Doan's Kidney Pills the kidney action has become normal and the backache disappeared. She feels like another woman and work is a pleasure to her." For sale by all dealers. Price 50c per box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y., sole agents for the United States.
