first way is from imperfect action of the

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause Of bladder troubles.
1t is comforting to know that Dir. Kill
mer's swamp Root fulhIls every wish in
quickly curing bladder and urinary
troubles II corrects inability to hold urine
and scalding or singing pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpIeas-
ant necessity of being compelled TO get up
many times during the night to urinate
The mild and extraordinary effect of Dr.
kilmer,s Swamp Root is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for its wonderful
Z cures of the most distressing cases
If you need a medicine you should have
the best. At druggists, fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have a sample bot
