OLD SOLDIER WISHES TO HELP
SUFFERERS FROM KIDNEY, LIVER
AND BLADDER TROUBLES.

/ am frequently troubled with kidney
and bladder trouble, especially in the
Spring and Fall. Being an old Veteran
of the Civil War, a little exposure or
cold settles on my kidneys, and then l
am laid up with kidney or bladder
trouble. Your Swamp-Root was recon
mended to me a number of years ago,
and l took a number of bottles of it
and was more than pleased with the re.
suits. l consider Swamp-Root the
greatest and best kidney medicine on
the market and it never fails to give
quick results in kidney trouble, bladder
trouble and lame back.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root has done
me SO much good that l feel if any
words of mine will be the means OF
relieving any poor sufferers, that you
are at liberty to use this letter as you
see fit.
Yours very truly,

FIFTEEN years ago Francis j. Kill
u kenny arrived in this country from
Ireland. He was so green that he
mistook a Fourth of July celebration
as a reception to himself. Young Kill
kenny had relatives and friends in
Milwaukee and Chicago and he made
for the middle west soon after his
landing. He had fund of native wit
and an abundance Of energy and
pluck. He got a job cutting grass and
soon came under the notice of Charles
G.. Dawes. When Mr.. Dawes came to
Washington as controller of the cur
rency he brought Kilkenny along as
his private secretary. When Dawes
retired from the controllership his
successor found he couldn't get along
without Kilkenny. Mr.. Ridgely was
succeeded as controller by Lawrence
o. Murray and that official has re-
tanned Kilkenny who has now be-
come one of the institutions Of the
treasury department.

more numerous became the bullets,
thrusts and slashes sustained by him

to the grizzled aid; and in silence
the aid nodded confirmation.

abundant than superb, and at dessert
the old warrior let himself out upon
the charge as he had never heretofore
done. Four horses were killed under
him. Three lances passed through his
