Can't be happy with continual backache. The aches and pains of a bad back. Are frequently due to weak kid- neys. ’ Doan’s Pills are recommended for weak kidneys, So Bismarck citizens testify. Ask your neighbor. John Wray, 1015 9th St., N., Bis- marek, says: “My kidneys were sluggish in action and I had a dull, steady pain in my back. I had to get up several times during the night to pas$ the kidney secretions. Doan’s Pills wére recommended to me and I got three boxes at Bres- low’s Drug Store and after using them the trouble appeared.
