Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, n. Y.
Dear Sirs:-I have derived such great
benefit from the use of your remedy
Swamp-Root, that believe it to be most
important for the public to know it's
worth. For the past ten years 1 have
been the most miserable of men. Did
not know what the trouble was. but had
to urinate very frequently both day and
night; was all puffed up generally. Could
not sleep more than a couple of hours at
time, was greatly distressed after eat
ing a meal and was about worn out. /
had tried nearly everything 1 could see
advertised and hear OF, without helping
me to any great extent, until finally in
October last at Ripan, Wis, I purchased
a one dollar bottle of Swamp-Root and
commenced taking it according to direc-
tions and I followed that with another
bottle and experienced such great relief
and benefit from same that, I purchased
five dollars worth at Huntsville, Ala.
and continued it's use and am now taking
It, but In smaller doses and twice a day
in place OF four times a day and believe
by the time present supply is used up 1
will be entirely well. am feeling better
now then for ten years past. Can eat
and sleep first-class, in fact I am feel
ing so good that / cannot resist telling
you about it. You are at liberty TO pub
lish this testimonial should you wish.
Very respectfully,

Dear Substituting last October 1 sur-

I consulted my physician, who pre-
scribed for me, but his treatment did not
benefit me. After reading some Swamp

somewhat relieved, and after two one

pain and was completely cured. 1 have
not had the slightest pain in my back

JACKSON, Tenn.
According to my experience, I do not
consider there is anything to equal
Swamp-Root for kidney affection.
Twice it relieved me when 1 was COM
pletely helpless.
The last time I was travelling in
Texas, when my kidneys become affected
and for ten days l suffered excruciating
pains, accompanied with severe chills
Several years previous, having been re-
lieved of a similar attack, I naturally
sought relief as before from Swamp
Root.
After using four of the large size bot
ties, was completely restored and went
on my way rejoicing and praising
Swamp-Root This was three years ago
and have had no indication of a return
of the affiiction.
