My condi- tion gradually became worse, though gave every care and attention to my health Finally. during the summer of 1899 the trouble developed into gravel, which increased my suffering and anx- iety many fold. I tried numerous kidney remedies without relief. and also went to a well-known health resort noted for the great curative properties of it's waters remained there for some time, but ob- tained no benefit Physicians were un- able to give me any relief.
 'I returned to Montgomery and during the latter part of the summer l com- menced taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root I took three small bottles. which relieved me entirely of my trouble. I must say this result was a great surprise to me. as I had lost faith in all medicines and had about concluded that I was doomed to be a chronic sufferer.
 There is now no question in my mind of the good effect of Swamp-Root for all kidney troubles, and that 1t Is far supe- rior to all other remedies, at least to the numerous ones I have fully tested. Dr. Kilmer has certainly discovered great cure for kidney complications and kim dred complaints, and I unqualifedly rec ommend it to my friends and the public.

MT. J. H. Button Is probably one of the best and most favorably known knights of the grip travelling out of Alabama s Capital City. He is an Alabamian by birth and is closely identified with the States commercial interests.
 For several years MT. Buttons health has not been of the best. His family and his hosts of friends were very much wor- ried over his condition. He suffered con- stantly from acute kidney trouble which developed into gravel about eighteen months age.
 When his physicians could give him no relief or encouragement, he became very blue. His countless friends recommend ed various liver and kidney medicines, which he tried without success, and later he visited several prominent health re- sorts, but obtained no relief. Finally he began taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root and here is what he said recently to a reporter of The Advertiser of the result:
 For number of years I suffered from kidney trouble. I not only suffered much, but the state of my health interfered seriously with my business duties. The regulations of commercial travellers life require promptness, and I often found it a serious struggle to be at my post. Only by the greatest effort of my mind was I

ONLY SURE REMEDY
MT. w. A. Scot Circulation Manager The Advertiser, ak Entertainingly Regarding That Great Rem
 edy Swamp-Root

On November 11th. of this year. Mir. Scott made the following statement to the editor of The Advertiser:
 You may say for me that think Dr. KiImer's Swamp-Root the greatest and only sure remedy in the world for troubles of the kidneys and bladder. This statement may seem extravagant. but I make 1t after I had been seriously af- fiicted for a number of years, and after exhausting every reputable remedy on the market in the effort to obtain relief.
 When a man tries every means at his command to get rid of a disease and fails, he generally becomes discouraged and gives up. I did almost, but not quite, and to the fact that I tried one more time I undoubtedly owe my recov- cry.
 q feel it my obligation to my fellow men to overlook no opportunity to rec commend it to sufferers, no matter wheth- CT I am personally interested in them or not I have been the means of placing Swamp Root in the hands of many af- fcted people. and have never yet heard of its failure to give relief.
 "I wish 1 could make stronger this in- dorsement of the great virtues of Swamp Root, for 1t deserves the best that can be | said of it.'' w. A. Scott.

It would not be an exaggeration to say tha. there is no better known or more popular newspaper man in the Southern States than Mir. W. A. Scott, formerly Assistant Circulation Manager of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and for the past year Circulation Manager of The Mont gomery Advertiser.
 For a number of years MT. Scott was afflicted with serious complications of the kidneys and bladder. He consulted sev- eral prominent physicians in St. Louis. Chicago and Kansas City. who all treated him without the slightest sucoess. In many of the towns and cities visited. while looking after his business, he re- ceived all kinds of advice and had count less remedies recommended Most of these he tried with no material or per manent benefit His friends and employ CTS became seriously concerned over his condition, and 1t was feared that he would have to permanently retire from business, If nothing more serious resulted. Being a close and constant newspaper reader, MT Scott had frequently seen ad- vertisements telling of the wonderful re- suits accomplished by Swamp-Root in conditions similar to his, and he began taking this great remedy.
