Norwich prool Is what you want and the statement of this highly respected resident will banish all doubt: Eugene Sweet, Norwich, says: *“I was confined to my bed as the result of mn attach of lumbago. I suffered from sharp pains across my loins and was sreatly annoyed by too frequent pas- wages of the kidney secretions. I con- rulted the best doctors in Providence, »ut their treatment failed to help me n the least. I finally read about Doan’s Kidney Pills and as I was bad- y in need of something that would elp me, I began using them. Im- )révement was soon noticeable and I iontinued using this remedy until the rouble disappeared. Others of my emily have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills or kidney complaint and have been ured. I confirm all I have ever said n praise of Doan's Kidney Pills.” Price 50c, at -all dealers. Don't imply ask for a kidney remedy—get Yoan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Ir. Sweet had.
