I have proved this, and am sure, from my experience, that they are quite as good as they are claimed to be. I suffered from rheuwho had heard oi a cure by Don;? matism for years, and one day a friend Backache Kidney Pills, advised me to try this remedy. 1 got some without delay, and used them with very satisfactory results. 1 can faithfully recommend Doan's Backache Kidney Pill.to any other sufferers."
