The reason is plain—the article did not fulfil the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. ! A medicinal preparation that has real 'curative value almost wells itself, as like ‘an endless chain system the remedy is i recommended by those who have been I cured, to those who are m need of It. In an interview on the subject a prom inent local druggist says: “Take for ex j ample Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a pre | paration I have sold for many years land never hesitate to recommend, for ' In almost every case it shows Immediate ! results.as many of my customers testify. [No other kidney remedy that I know of I has so large a sale.’’ The success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- I Root is due to the fact that it fulfils l every wish in overcoming kidney. liver 'and bladder diseases, corrects urinary j troubles and neutralizes the uric acid i which causes rheumatism. A free trial bottle will ba sent by I mail, absolutely free. Address Dr. I Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.» and i mention this paper.
