Backache Quickly Cured by Dodd'e
Kidney Pills. Mrs. W; H. Ambrose
tells how her pains vanisned never

- American Kidney Remedy.
Dover, Ky., Feb. 13th.—(Bpecial)— \
So long has Backache be^n" the terror
of the women of America that the
numerous reports of the complete and
permanent cures of this ailment now
being made by Dodd’s Kidney Pills
are causing wide satisfaction and not
the least remarkable of these cures
is that of Mrs. W. H. Ambrose of this
place. Mrs. Ambrose says:
T had such pains in my back at
times I could hardly move and other
symptoms showed that my kidneys
were affected. One box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills drove away all the pains
and I have never been troubled since.”
Backache is the kidneys’ first notice
that they are out of order and weed
help. If they get that help in the
form of Dodd's Kidney Pills all will be
well. If they are neglected the dis-
ease may. develop into Diabetes,
Bright’s Disease or Rheumatism.

the basis for the delicious menus
which are dally served in the great
Sanitarium dining room, at which sit
down hundreds of intelligent men and
women from all parts of the United
States and even from foreign coun-
tries. Milk, eggs and other dairy prod-
ucts are also freely used. Great care
taken to provide the very best and
choicest of everything edible, of which
the physicians approve.
During the year which has just
closed a vast amount of these things
were required to provide for the army
of patients who visited the sanitarium,
for several thousand sufferers housed
there during the twelve months of
1904. As to the expense for the past
year it was considerable, amounting to
a total of 8327.189.99, divided as fol-
lows: Nut foods, 50 tons. 326.768.80;
cereal foods, 101.994 pounds, 39.621.19;
bread, 65,026 pounds, 32,657.43; canned
goods, 3.699 cases, 810.506.65; fruit

total, 8327,189.99. •
The amount of charity dispensed
during the past ten years at this
sanitarium amounted to 3^85,610.
To care fcr thfe patients an average of
725 men and women were employed
during each year, and an average of
560 patients are under treatment at
this sanitarium every day in the year.

True, it is “llaTHe Creek" to-day, just

begun, and the following yCAr. Niay 31,
1903, the prevent fireproof main build-

3600.000, was dedicated. The cost of
the entire establishment, including
equipment, twenty dormitories, cot-
tages and other buildings has amount-
A.PdJto tnore than 81,200,000.
The Battle Creek Sanitarium as it
stands to-day is recognized the world
* ever as the most complete and thor-

Connected with the Sanitarium is a
Training School for Nurses, in which
from two to three hundred nurses are
constantly under training.

penetrated to the remotest parts of
the civilized world, and scores of men
and women who have been trained in
. these methods are devoting their lives
