KNOW IT WELL.
Familiar Features Well Known to
Hundreds of Mangum Citizens.
A familiar burden in Many homes.
The burden of a "bad back."
A lame, a weak, or aching Wk.
Often tells you of kidney ills.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak
kidneys.
Here is Mangum testimony:
Mrs. M. L. Trice, 603 N. Oklahoma
Avenue says: "I had much trouble
with my kidneys brought on by the
hard lime and gypsum water in this
country. My back pained me right
smart and my limbs became numb.
My kidneys showed signs of weakness
also. I found good benefit from the
first box of Doan's Kidney Pills and I
continued taking them until I was en-
tirely rid of every sign of kidney
trouble." 1
Price 60 cents at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that
cured Mrs. Trice. Foster Milburne Co.,
