No better proof of merit can be had than the experience of friends and neighbors. Bead this case: Mrs. W. Cates, of Graham, N. C., says: "I was afflicted with kidney disease in a very painful form for a long time and often the pains in mj back almost prostrated me. I could not make any sudden movement without suffering intensely and I also had pains and dizzy spells. The kidney secretions bothered me and the doctor's medicine did not help me to any extent. When I heard of Doan's Kidney Pills, I got a supply and the results of their use were ex cellent. My kidnnys were regulated and I was restored to better health than I had enjoyed for years."
