Good news bears repeating, and when it is confirmed after a long lapse of time, even i1 we hesitated to believe it at first bearing, we ferl secure in ac cepting its truth now. The following experience of a Manning man is con firmed after six years. W. R. White, .prop. of grocery, S. Boundary St.. Manning, says: "I suf fered from kidney trouble for years I had to get up very often during the night to pass the kidney socrations and they were highly colored and contain ed sediment. like brick-dust. I suffer ed constantly from backache and sharp pains across my loins. I could hardly iurn over in bed and mornings thy back was so iame.and sore that it was diffi, cult for me to dress myself. Nothing helped me until I got Doan's Kidney Pills. After using one box, my back didn't ache any more and the lameness and soreness had all disappeared. I don't qave to get up now to pass the kidney secretions and am feeling twenty- years younger." (Statement given March 19th. 1908 ) . OVER SIX YEARS LATER, Mr. White said: "I always use.
