Graham People Can Tell You The Reason Why It Is So. Doan's Kidney Pills cure the cause of disease, and that is why the cares are lasting. This remedy strengthens and tones up the kidneys, helping them to drive out of the body the liquid poisons that cause backache, headache and distressing kidney and uri nary complaints. Graham peo ple testify to permanent cures. Mrs. Bryan Phillips, Main St., Graham, N. C., says: "I have not had an ache or pain since Doan's Kidney Pills cared me three years ago and it gives me pleasure to say 80. For several years I suffered from a dull ache across the small of my back and I also had attacks of dizziness. My kidneys did not do their work as they should and gave me no end of annoyance. Finally I got a supply of Doan's Kidney r'ills from the Alamance Pharmacy and the contents of two or three boxes entirely removed my trouble." -, For sale by all dealers.
