Graham Happenings Always Interest Our Readers^; After reading of so many people in our town who have beeii cured by Doan’s Kidney Pills, the question naturally arises: “Is thisj rnedicine equally successful in our neigliboring towns?” The generous statement of this Graham resident leaves no room for doubt on this point. . Mrs. Addie Bradshaw, Mil! Street, Graham> N. C., says: “I always had pains in my back and sides and my kidneys were irregular in action. I felt nervous and at night I couldn’t sleep well. In the morning I felt all tired out. Doan’s Kidney Pills made me feel better in every way. We have gven this remedy to our children and I can say that it briiigs highly satirfactory results.” F6# sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
