Wideview, Sask., May 10 (Special).- "D:xdd's Kidney Pills not only helped me, they made a new woman of me." This is the enthusiastic statement of Mrs. Charles Porter. a well-known resident of this place Asked why she was so sure it was Dodd's Kidney Pills that helped her, Mrs. Porter replied: •'1 was sick for over two years. One doctor said i had gall stones. Another said i had stomach and kidney trouble. i bought ax hoses of Dodd's Kidney Pills, they did the work." Mrs. Porter's troubles were caused by the kidneys. That's why she got such p1 and complete relief from Dodd's }dray Pills. for they act only on the &idneys. The reason Dodd's Kidney Pills area saw health to so many suffering allows is because the kidneys are the MOM d njo-tentbs of all the ills which HtiOraeRer. that even the vegetable shops in Canada have big windows !
