tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
a cure is obtained quickest by proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-RoOt, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
schlding pain in passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled TO go often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
IT stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root Is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists lin fifty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about it,
both sent free by mail. Address, DIR. Kill
mer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, When
writing mention reading this generous
offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, Swamp
Root, DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, and the
address, Binghamton, N. ", on every
bottle.

More About Diphtheria
IN OUR CITY

We thank God for Prof. Robinson's new
er failing remedy for diphtheria- Why
are we SO slow to appreciate so Valuable
q remedy? Clyde, our little 6-year-olQ
our physician finally gave him up. he
was all but dead, and we could hardly
nurse him. and as he lay there dying, we
sent for Prof. Robinson to come over ana
cine, the Golden Chemical Compound, and
then we swabbed his throat, and, to our
utter establishment, that miserable MEM
brane which had come so nearly choking
chunks sticking to the swab To our
great joy. he became easier from the first
time we used the medicine and in a few
hours called for something to eat, and in
three or four days got up; We do know
that if il had not been for the Golden
Chemical Compound he would have died.
We used this same remedy for the other
children when they first came down with
diphtheria. and we did not have a physi-
clan for them at all. This certainly is
wonderful medicine and we would not be
without it even If it cost five dollars a
bottle We do not think the Golden
Chemical Compound can be too highly
recommended, and it would be good
thing If all the doctors in Topeka would
use this medicine; and then we are sure
theer would be no more deaths from
diphtheria, because we have tried 1t on
one child after the doctor had given him
sWering all questions. as the diphtheria
has spread to nearly all parts of our city,
