The Deadly Chicken Mite.

Herewith we illustrate the deadly
chicken mite (magnified Is dame
ters). The mite at it's natural size
can be readily known and recognized
by means Of the naked eye, but a
magnifying glass will make him still
more apparent. These mites are very
destructive to poultry and kill more
young chicks than any other pest.
Their smallness makes them hard to
fight. They multiply with great ra-
pidity, and it is not unusual to find
all the crevices in a poultry house
harboring these mites. Sometimes a
single crevice will hold ten thousand

MRS. A. L. WALKER, 1871 East Linden St, Atlanta, Ga.
Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible
for many kinds of diseases, and if permitted to
continue much suffering and fatal results are
sure to foUop. 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 indi.
gestion, stomach and liver trouble, you get a
sallow, yellow complexion, 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.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the world-famous kidney remedy.
In taking Swamp-Root you afford natural help
healer and gentle aid to the kidneys that is
known to medical science.
