CAN'T DISPUTE THIS
Because It Is a Local Transition and
the Citizen Is on the Spot
to Confirm It.
Tho reader of this must concede
two Important points: First, what
follows having taken place In Scran
ton can easily be Investigated and
proved to be true; second, there Is a
vast difference between opinions pub
licly expressed by a resident of Scran
ton In Seranton local papers and the
opinions dally mot with In the same
papei's columns which wcro orlglnnlly
drafted In Maine or Montnnn. Head
this caso and acknowledge both points:
Mis. Sarah Farrell, of 1919 Price
street, Hyde Park, says: "I honestly
bellcvo If It had not been for Doan'a
Kidney Pllln i would now be In my
grave. Six years ago my kidneys
commenced to trouble me. At first, I
did not pay much nttentloit to It, but
It kept getting worse and other symp
toms nppeared. I tried many medi
cines, but without obtaining perman
ent relief. I was so bad that blood
passed from me: my back ached so
I could not-got up or down. I was short
of breath and finally I had to tako to
my bed. I was gi owing weaker and
my suffering became more Intense,
and the doctor said he was doing all
ho could for me. I often wished and
prayed for death for I had given up
hopo of getting relief. My mother had
Doan's Kidney Pills bi ought to her
notice, and got a box fiom Matthews
Pros.' drug store. 1 took them and
the first box did me so much good, I
got more. After tho fourth box, 1
thanked God that 1 had found a rem
edy which had given mo a new lease
of life."
