WHAT TO DO.

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy, fulflls 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 in passing it, or bad effects
following use of liquor, wine or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during the
night to urinate. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its won
derful cures Of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have the
