ITS A MANLY ACT
[A WELLINGTON CITIZEN SPEAKS FOE, THE BENEFIT OF HIS FELLOW CITIZENS. A plain, straightforward statement. A grateful acknowledgment of help. Telling a personal experience. Making it public f- _• the public good. It's a manLy act. It’s manly because it helps others. So many people have been misled. So many claims made that were not true. A Wellington man speaks here. Speaks in the interest of humanity. Eemoves the stumbling block of doubt. No better proof can be had. Mr J. B. Thompson, 12, Vivian street, this city, says:—“When I used to bend my back I had a terrible hard job to get straight again. When I laid down at night I would be in so much pain I could hardly turn. I was not always so, but it occurred pretty frequently, and I knew that something must be very much wrong with me. In fact, my tortures at these times were so great that I don’t think they could have been much worse unde?’ any circumstances. I told myself it must be lumbago. I went to a doctor, who told me I was right when I thought I suffered from lumbago. But then my secretions were very much disordered, and all the medicines I used for lumbago did me no good. Then I used other remedies, but eacn one failed, until I doubted if I could get a cure at all. Three months ago I got a lox of Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills at Fitzgerald’s Pharmacy. These pills cured me after years of suffering. lam quite cured, and though it is a long time now since I used the pills or any other medicine, I’ve never had a sign of th© old trouble come back. They are grand pills for pains in the hack. Doan’s Backache Kidnev Pills are sold by all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per box (six boxes 16s 6d,) or will be posted on receipt of price by the proprietors, Foster-McClellan Co., v 6, Pitt street, Sydney, N.S.W. But be sure they ARE Doan’s.
