But with backache and other distress- ing kidney ills life indeed becomes a burden. Doan’s Kidney Pills have made life brighter for many Belle- fonte women. Read what Mrs. J. T. Gordon, 130 E. Beaver St., Bellefonte, says: “I and another member of my family, have found great benefit from the use of Doan’s Kidney Pills which were procured at Parrish’s Drug Store. My trouble was a dull, con- stant backache which kept me in mis- ery at times. Mornings I was so sore and lame 1 dreaded to begin my housework, for it was a burden. Doan’s Kidney Pills, taken according to directions restored my kidneys to a normal condition. I have had no re- turn of the backache or kidney disor- ders. Doan’s surely have my grati- tude for the lasting benefit they brought me.” (Statement given April 12, 1914). On October 19, 1918, Mrs. Gordon said: “I gladly confirm my previous statement for Doan’s Kidney Pills, as 1 certainly have found them to be all that is claimed for them.
