A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with very severe cold that caused him
to be in most miserable condition. It
was undoubtedly bad case of la grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous he
took immediate steps to bring about a
speedy cure. From the advertisement
Of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and
the many good recommendations in
cluded therein, we concluded to make
a first trial of the medicine. To say
that it was satisfactory In its results, is
putting it very mildly, indeed. It act
ed like magic and the result was a
speedy and permanent cure. We have
no hesltancy in recommending this
excellent Cough Remedy to any one
afflicted with cough or cold in any
form.-The Banner of Liberty, Liberty

ONE Of TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pese, namely, a receptacle for the
urine, and as such it is not liable to
any form of disease except by one of
two ways. The first way is from inn
perfect action OF the kidneys. The sec
ond way is from careless local treat
ment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder trou-
bles. So the womb, like the bladder.
was created for one purpose, and it not
doctored too much is not liable to
weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. It is situated back OF and very
close to the bladder, therefore any pain
disease or Inconvenience manifested In
the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary
passage is often by mistake, attributed
to female weakness or womb trouble of
some sort. The error is easily made
and may be as easily avoided. To find
out correctly, set your urine for twenty
four hours sedement or settling in
dicates kidney or bladder trouble. The
mild and the extraordinary effect OF DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kid
ney and bladder remedy is soon applied
