It Is hard for mo to ilosdrlbe how I suffered, Tlio pain would commence in my bead, after which it would seem to pass down tny hotly nnd settle In my back, my sides nehed, my back nebed, nnd I had a feollng uf groat distress in tho liowels. Tho increased pain which seemed to come from lying down, would bo almost unbearable, my face and stomach would bloat up and 1 could hardly stand on my feet, dizziness made it almost Impossible ; this feeling was always with me even after tho violcnce'of the attack passed over. Tho last attack I had was the worst, nnd was so bad I would not havo liecn tiblo to tell this story but for Doau's Kidpcy Pills. As soon as I commenced their use I found immcdiato relief. The pain in my back and sides left me and the dizziness went with it; tho bloating in my faco and body disappeared and nil distress in my bowels was gono. I havo great faith in Doan's Kidney Pills; in a short timo they did n great deal more for mo than nil tho plasters and medicines which I had resorted to in seeking relief nnd cure. I hopo always to bo able to pro cure them." For sale by all dealers price, CO cents. Mailed by Foster-Mllburn Co., Buffalo N. y., sole agents for the U. S.
