Again and again we have read of strangers in distant towns who have been cured by this'or that medicine. But Bemidji’s pertinent question’has always been ‘‘Has anyone here in’ Be- midji been cured?”’ The word of a stranger living a hundred miles away may be true, but it -cannot have the same weight with us 'as the word of our own citizens, whom we know and respect, and whose evidence we can so easily prove. 0. E. Erickson, prop. of grocery, 1223 Minnesota Ave., Bemidji, says: “Several years ago when working on the street railway I had a bad at- tack of kidney complaint, caused by so much jolting and shaking. It finally settled in my back and made it hard for me to keep going. My kidneys acted irregularly. Two box- es of Doan's Kidney Pills' cured me and since then I'have been free from kidney trouble.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Erickson had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y.—Adv.'
