kidneys; if it stains the linen it is evil
dence of kidney trouble; too frequent
desire to pass it, or pain in the back

neys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed that Dr.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney and
bladder remedy. fulfills every wish in
curing rheumatism, pain in the back.
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. 1t corrects in
ability to hold water and scald;ng pain
in passing it, or bad effects following
use of liquor, wine or beer, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity OF
being compelled to go often during the
day, and to get up many times during
the night. The mild and the extraor-
binary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures Of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. Sold by druggists
in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes
You may have a sample bottle Of
Swamp-Root and a book that tells
more about it. both sent absolutely
free by mail. Address DIR. Kilmer &.
