AVOID MISTAKES
No Need For Newark People
to Experiment With Such
Convincing Evidence
AT Hand
There are many well-adver
i tised kidney remedies on the
market today,but none so well
recomended in this vicinity as
j Doan’s Kidney Pills. Read the
statement of a resident of New
port.
J. A. Baird, 214 Main St.,
Newport, Ark., says: “Some
times my back was in such bad
shape that I could hardly
straighten up after stooping. I
had dizzy spells and headaches
and suffered from rheumtic
j pains in my limbs. Doan’s Kid
ney Pills relieved me wonder
fully. During the past year, 1
haven’t noticed any backache
or other symptoms of kidney
trouble.”
Price 50c, at all dealers.

remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pill—the same that Mr. Baird
had. Foster-Milburn,Co..Props.
