There can be no reason why any readér of this who suffers the tor- tures of an aching back, the annoy- ance of bladder disorders, the pains| and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor who has found relief. Read what this Nor- wich woman says: Mrs. C. E. Fowler, 581 E. Main St, says: “I am very seldom without Doan’s Kidney Pills in the house and I buy them at the Lee & Osgood Co. I have had attacks of backache which have come on from a cold. Some- times overwork has brought on those dull pains across my kidneys. I haven’'t used Doan’s Kidney Pills con.’ tinually but just when my back has ached and felt weak and then I have never failed to get relief. I recom- mend Doan’s highly because of my ex- perience with them.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Fowler uses.
