Thorough Work = HOW A BELLEFONTE CITIZEN FOUND FREEDOM FROM KID- NEY TROUBLES. If you suffer from backache— From urinary disorders— Any curable disease of the kidneys, Use a tested kidney remedy. Doan’s Kidney Pills have been test- ed by thousands. Bellefonte people testify. Can you ask more convincing proof of merit? Wm. McClellan, 244 Lamb St. Bellefonte, says: “I suffered for a long time from pains and lameness across my back and some mornings I could hardly get out of bed. My back ached constantly and the kidney secretions were irregular in passage. Hearing a great deal about Doan’s Kidney Pills I decided to try them. They cured me and I am now enjoy- ing good health. My advice to any- one afflicted with kidney complaint is to take Doan’s Kidney Pills.” Price 60 cents at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that cured Mr. McClellan. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. 63-14 INSURANCE!
