DOAN’S REPORTS INVESTIGATED. No return of illness for three years. We are answering a very important question to-day, viz. “Do the people who say they have been cured by Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills stay cured?” A medicine which cures merely for a day or week is worthless; is is only a tonic or a pugrative. But a medicine which drives the illness away so that it stays away, that medicine does all medicine can do. We have been verifying our earlier published cases and we are pleased to say that the result of our investigations has been most gratifying. The cures by Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills a re permanent cures. Here’s proof of this statement:— Mr. W. Pascoe, Revell Street, Hokitika, says:—“For a good while I suffered terribly with backache and rheumatic pains and at times could hardly move without enduring positive torture. I was also troubled w'ith dizzy turns and felt ti'red and languid, having no energy for anything.
