HOW To FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-four hours; sedi-
ment or settling indicates an unhealthy
condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen il is evidence of kidney troub-
lie. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain
in the back, is also convincing proof that
the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfls
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 I'M
pleasant necessity of being compelled to
get up many times during the night to
urinate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for its wonderful cures
of the most distressing cases. If you need
medicine you should have the best.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have a sample
bottle and pamphlet both sent free by
mail. Mention The RIvER Fails JouRN-
AL and send your address 70 DIR. Kilmer

tor of this paper guarantees the genuine
ness of this offer.
