convincing PROOF tnAf the kidneys and bad
der are cut of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge SC
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. 1t corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to 20 often
during the day, and TO get Up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect Of Swarnp=Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
