Wfcat To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish In curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne-
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get nj> many
times during trie night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis-
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug-
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sires.
You may have a sample bottle and «
book that tells all
about it, both sent free
by mail. Address Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Bing- _
hamton, N. Y. When Uwaa«t swua^iMi.
writing mention this paper and don't
make any mistake, but remember the
name, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and
