The Eminent Kidney
 and Bladder Specialist.


 There is disease prevailing in this country most dangerous because so decep- tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by it-heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure or apoplexy are often the result of kidney disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad- vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell. Then the richness of the blood--the albumen leaks out and the sufferer has Bright's S Disease, the worst form of kidney trouble.
 pr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root the new dis covery is the true specific for kidney, bladder and urinary troubles. It has cured thousands of apparently hopeless cases, after all other efforts have failed. At druggists in fifty-cent and dollar sizes. A sample bottle sent free by mail. also a book telling about Swamp Root and it's wonderful cures. Address pr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N.
