Doan Kidney Pill Co., Toronto.
Dear Sirs, -I spffered for sonie time
from kidney troubles. My back wao so
' bad that to stoop over or straighten up
after stooping caused terrible pain. .
I bad to get up several times during the
night to urinate. My urine was highly.
colored, contained a thick sediment, and
caused a burning sensation.
I tried numerous remedies, but none did
sue any good until I got Doan's Pills. I
• took four boxes, the pain in my back has
entirely disappeared, my urine is as clear
as water, does not burn, is without sedi-
ment, and I can recommend Doan's Pills
to all sufferers. .
