ONE or TWO WAYS

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, 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 imperfect action of the
kidneys. The second way is from care
less local treatment Of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder troubles.
So the womb, like the bladder, was Great
ed for one purpose, and if not doctored too
much is not liable to weakness or disease,
except in rare cases. 1t is situated back
of and very close tothe bladder, therefore
any pain, disease or inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage is often by mistake, at
tributed 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 aside for
twenty-four hours; sediment or settling
indicates kidney or bladder trouble.
The mild and extraordinary effect of DR..
kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney,
and bladder remedy is soon realized. If
you need a medicine you should have the
best. At druggists, fifty cents and one
dollar. You may have sample
bottle and pamphlet both sent free by
mail, upon receipt of three two-cent
stamps to cover cost Of postage on bot
tie. Mention THE RIVER FaLLs JoURN-
AL and send your address to DIR. Kilmer
& Co., Binghamton n. Y. The proprie-
tor of this paper guarantees the genuine.
