HOW TO FIND OUT,

FiH bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-four hours; a Sedi-
ment or settling indicates an unhealthy
condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is positive evidence of kid
ney trouble. Too frequent desire TO
urinate or pain in the back, is also con-
vincinE proof that he kidneys and bladder
are out of order.

WHAT TO DO,

There is comfort in the knowledge SO
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy, fnlfills
every wish in relieving pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of
the urinary passages. 1t corrects inability
TO hold urine and scalding pain n passing
it, or bad effects following use of Iianor.
wine or beer, and oveTcomes that un-
pleasant necessity OF being compelled To
get up many times during the night to
urinare. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp Root is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for it's wonderful cures
of tie most distressing cases. If you need
q medicine you should have the best. Sold
by druggists, price fifty cents and one
dollar. You may have sample bottle and
pamphlet both sent free by mail. Mention
