when healthy. Every woman
who is having backache, blue
and nervous spells, dizzy head
:ich« . kidney or bladder
trou . should be glad to heed
this liig Spring woman's exper-
ience:
Mrs. M, A. Wooster, 507 Main
St., Big Spring, Texas, says: "I
can certainly recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills, as I baveuted
them off and on for several
years. Sometimes after doing
a lit : sweep rg or other house
wors v .dneys seem to be
we. •* i i and I would have
U.-v .•■! . At such times, I
would be bothered with my kid-
neys aoting irregularly. I found
I could depend on Doan's Kid
ney Pills to give me quick relief
and J recommended them to alt
my friends."
Price 60c at all dealers, l ean's
simply ask for a kidney remede
—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the
