REGARDLESS OF AGE
Th * kidce.s are responsible for more
j •Ickuess, suffering, anil deaths than any
. <>tl. r organs of the body.
A m ajority of the ills i.fflicting people
■ today is traceable to kidney trouble. It
| pervades all clawes of society, in all cli
ma <’S regardless of age, sex or condition.
Tn mptoins of kidney trouble are un
mistak.such as rheumatism,neuralgia
sleeplessness, pain or dull ache in the back
a desire to urinate often day or n.ght, pro
fuse or scanty supply.
Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine
are signs of clogged kidneys, causing pois
oned an :l germ-tilled blood. Sometimes
the heart ac’s badly, and tube casts (wast
ing of the kidneys) are found in the urine,
which if neglected will result in Bright’s
Disease, the most dangerous form of kid
ney trouble.
All these symptoms and conditions are
promptly removed under the influence of
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. It has a world
wide reputation for its wonderful cures of
the most distressing cases.
No one need be long without it as it is
?•> easy to get at any drug store at flfty
cents or one dollar. You can have a sam
ple bottle of this wonderful discovery,
Swamp-Root, and a book telling all about
it, both sent to you absolutely free by mail
