An old testimonial from Mrs. M. A. Jenkins of Quanah Texas describes kidney illness leading to weakness swelling and dropsy and credits Doan's Kidney Pills with saving her life. The ad promotes the product at 50 cents a box from Foster Milburn Co Buffalo N Y.
The London Chronicle notes it is remarkable that Britain’s premiers have been Scots, Welsh, Dutch, or German by descent while England has not had a purely English sovereign for centuries.
