The Secret of Success
Genuine Merit Required to Win the
Peoples Confidence

Have you ever stopped to reason why
IL is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop
out OF sight and are soon forgotten?
The reason is plain-the article did not
fulfil the promises OF the manufac-
turer. This applies more particularly
to medicine. A medicinal preparation
that has real curative value almost
sells ITSELF as like an endless chain
system the remedy is recommended by
those who have been cured, to those
who are in need of it.
In an interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist says: Take
for example DIR. Kilmer's swamp Root.
a preparation I have sold for many
years and never hesitate TO recommend,
for in almost every case II shows i'm
mediate results, as many Of my Gus
toners testify. No other kidney remedy
that I know Of has so large sale"
The success of DR.. Kilmer's swamp
Root is due to the fact that it fulfils
every wish in overcoming kidney liver
and bladder diseases. corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.

country.
A courier came in from the Ell Vale
district today, saying they had en-

rumor. He said If the rebels became
hard pressed they would buy the guns

impossible. The eolonists have no
guns or ammunition to sell.
