The Tooth Stainer.

The trade of tooth s%tainer. followed
in eastern Asia, is as odd a calling As
any. The natives prefer black teeth
to the whittier kind and the tooth
stainer, with a little box of brushes
and coloring matter, calls on his GUS
toners and stains their teeth. The
process is not unlike that of backing
a boot, for a fine polish is given to the
teeth. The pigment is harmless.

I had tried so many remedies without their having
benefited me that l was about discouraged but in a few
days after taking your wonderful Swamp-Root 1 began to
feel better.
I was out of health and run down generally; had no
appetite, was dizzy and suffered with headache most of the
time. did not know that my kidneys were the cause of
my trouble, but somehow felt they might be, aud I began
pleasant taste to swampRoot, and it goes right to the spot
and drives disease out of the system. 1t has cured
me, making ME stronger and better in every way, and /
cheerfully recommend it to all sufferers.
Gratefully yours,
MRS. A. L. WALKER, 331 East Linden ST., Atlanta, Ga.
Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible
for many kinds of diseases, and if permitted to
continue much suffering and fataLresuhs are sure
to foHow. Kidney trouble ~irritates the nerves,
makes you dizzy, restless, sleepless and irritable.
Makes you pass water often during the day and
obliges you to get up many times during the
night. Unhealthy kidneys cause rheumatism,
gravel, catarrh of the bladder, pain or dull ache
in the back, joints and muscles; make your head
ache and back ache, cause indigestion, stomach
and liver trouble, you get a sallow, yellow COM
plexion, make you feel as though you had heart
trouble; you may have plenty of ambition, but
no strength {; get weak and waste away.
The cure for these troubles is DR.. Ki1mer's
Swamp-Root, the world-famous kidney remedy.
In taking Swamp-Root you afford natural help
to Nature, for Swamp-Root is the most perfect
healer and gentle aid to the kidneys that is
known to medical science.
