Only one way to cure a bad
back.
Liniment and plasters may re
lieve it;
They won't cure it.
Backache means sick kidneys.
Doan’s Kidney Pills are for
bad kidneys.
Burlington people back them
up.
Read a case of it:
Mrs. R. L. Wheeler, Lakeside
Ave., Burlington, N. C., says:
“I am a strong believer in l>oa«’s
Kidney Pills as they cured me of
backache and other annoying
symptoms of kidney complaint
after other had failed. My back
was certainly in a wretched con
dition. I could hardly climb a
flight of stairs and it was impos
sible to stoop. I was also both
ered by dizzy spells and head
aches. A relative finally advised
me to try Doan’s Kidney Pills
and I did so with satisfactory re
suits. My health began to mend
at once and I now feel like a dif
ferent woman.” *
For sale by all dealers. Price
50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co.,
