THE NEW METHOD OF
BLOOD PURIFYING.
What the New Discovery in Medical
Science Has Accomplished.
The Prompt Way to Yourself When Symptoms
Blood Is OF
THE EMINENT SPECIALISTS FREE OFFER TO ALL
READERS OF THIS PAPER

For great many years it has been
the custom for sick people to say: "My
blood is out of order 1t needs purify
ing. feel all used up. My skin needs
clearing. My brain feels tired"
They are right, but do they act right I?
They generally go and get laxative
(bowel cleaner) to purify their blood.
Does their blood run through their
bowels?
Science has to-day furnished proofs
that all the purifying that your blood
needs, in fact, all that can be done,
must be done by your kidneys.
/. All the blood in your body passes
through your kidneys every three min
utes.
The kidneys strain or filter out the i'm
purities of the blood-thatisth is their work.
Purifying your blood is not a ques-
tion of taking a laxative or physic.
Does your blood run through your
bowels?
i What the bowel-cleaner does is to
throw out the poisons confined in your
bowels ready for absorption into your
blood, but the poisons which are already
in your blood, causing your present
sickness 10 bdUes there.
There is no other way of purifying
your blood except by means of your kid
neys.
That is why bowel-cleaners fail to do
their work-they fail to help the kid
neys.
When you are sick, then, no matter
what you think the name Of your dis
ease is, the first thing you should do is
to afford aid to your kidneys by using
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root the great
Kidney Remedy.
In taking Swamp-Root you afford
natural help to nature, for Swamp-Root
is the most perfect healer and gentle

An Evidence of Prosperity.

1t is generally conceded by economists,
who study the commercial situation OF the
country, that the great arteries of railway
travel are a sure indication of its condition.
A depression in commercial lines means
abandoned business trips and the cancela-
tion of pleasure travel, while healthy con.
dition of affairs means business trips and an
increase of passengers on pleasure bent.
A good evidence that business revival
has gone broadcast over this country is the
Lake Shore Limited" the star train of the
Vanderbilt system, between New York and
Chicago, which is daily comfortably filed.
With a view to taking the best possible care
of its patrons, the New York Central has
arranged to increase the equipment of this
train by placing an additional standard
sleeper on the trains leaving New York and
Chicago Tuesdays, Thursdays and Satur-
days. To. the regular traveller the appoint.
ments and comforts of this train are we'll
known, but if you have never made trip
on it, you owe it to yourself to see and en-
Joy the advance made in comfort and lux
ury in modern railway travel. Remember
the fare is no higher on this train, except
between New York and Chicago, while the
accommodations and service place this par
ticular train conspicuously at the head of
the list, when compared with other lines
