TIME IS THE TEST. ' THE TESTIMONY OF WELLINGTON PEOPLE3TANDS THE TEST. - "The. test of time is what tells the tale. “ A new broom sweeps clean,” but will it v “wear well ”is what interests most. The public soon find out when misrepresentations are made, and merit alone will stand the test of time. Wellington people appreciate • merit and many months ago local citizens publicly endorsed uoans vßaGKaehetuciiieif truss They do so still. /Would a citizen make the statement which follows unless convinced that the article is just as represented ? A cure that lasts is the kind that every sufferer from kidney ills is looking for. FROM PETONE MBS. S. R, LEONARD. Beach street. Petone, this city, states: —“Five years ago I fell down a culvert and my kidneys were hurt, and a long, bad time of Kidney Disease set in. Even before I fell J had suffered more or less with pains in the small of my back and giddiness and headache, but afterwards the symptoms were so alarming that I never expected to recover, nor dit my friends expect that I could recover. The bladder gave me the most-trouJJe; the secretions were thick and most painful, besides being discoloured with blood. Sometimes the blood seemed to leave the kidneys very plentifully, thus showing what a terrible state those organs were in. My back always ached across the loins but at times the agony was something frightful, especially when I caught cold; and I always seemed to be talcing cold. No 'precautions seemed to protect me and at those times I would be a perfect cripple, as inflammation of the kidneys would set in. I was wearing out fast and used to look thirty years older thain I was, being so haggard and drawn and I fell away to a mere shadow. I was quite hopeless of ever getting well. Indeed my sufferings were so terrible that I used to look more to Heath as an end to my agony.” "I was created by a number of doctors, one after another, and I also had hospital treatment and was operated on a number of times. One doctor told me that I should never got well and the most hopeful doctor said I should not be right for years. This was the best news I heard so you can guess what sort of an outlook I had! before me. I had my photo taken at the ©nd of the year 1900. som* of my friends wishing to have one before I went under an operation which I wag to undergo at one of the hospitals.” ‘Tt was just at the time I had this photo taken (which photo looked like a womjan of about sixty) that a friend of mine brought me a box of Doan's Backache Kidney Pills which had been obtained at Chas. A. Fletcher’s Pharmacy. I was not taking any medicine at the time, the doctor evidently thinking it was not necessary on account of the immediate operation, so I started using these pills right away. You will scarcely credit it' but I felt that the pills were doing me good before I had taken a box. . Every dose did me good service and every dav 1 felt better and better. When I had taken the fourth box your representative called to see'how I was getting along and I felt better that I allowed him to take down the facts for publication. But I was not cured'. “At the same time you see the change in my health was so great that it almost seemed like a cure. My secretioos were clear and the bleeding of th 9 kidneys had stopped and at times my back was quite free of pain. I kept on using the pills after this and at least I felt I was* quite cured. T had taken about fifteen boxes of the remedy. Two years have now passed since I gave up using the pills and lam still well. It was a marvellous cure in my case. Peope who came to see me since my illness scarcely knew me; I had gained flesh and looked my proper age. In fact I feel that Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills saved my life. My kidneys are in a thoroughly healthy condition now. All my. friendu know hew great a cure this remedy made in my case and I am glad to spealt in favour of this medicine so that all sufferers may know I how is for Kidnev complaint/ 5 Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills are sold by all Chemists and Storeheepers at 3/- per box (six boxes 16/6), or will be posted on receipt of price by Foster-McClellan Co., 76, Pitt street, Sydney, N.S.W.
