This Bemidji citizen testified long ago. Told of quick relief—of undoubted benefit. The facts are now confirmed. Such testimony is complete—the evidence conclusive. It forms convincing proof of merit. Mrs. Carl Golz, 623 Minnesota Ave., Bemidji, says: “I had a lame back and suffered from distressing head- aches and dizzy spells. My kidneys caused me great annoyance. After using two boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills, obtained at Barker’s Drug Store the lameness and aching left me and I felt better in every way.” (State- ment given March 20, 1914). ALWAYS KEEP DOAN’S ON HAND. TWO YEARS LATER Mrs. Golz _CHAS.

Charles Ray and Margery Wilson and Margaret Thompson have never done better nor had a better vehicle than the new Triangle-Kay Bee Play “The Honorable Algy.” said: “The statement I gave in favor of Doan’s Kidney Pills some time ago, . still holds good.
