 What TO Do.
 There is comfort ill the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy, fulflls every wish i'll curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It 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 rle- eessity of being compelled to go often iduring 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 dis tressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.
