LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
They Are Closely Observing Public
Health Conditions.

An examining physician for one OF
the prominent Life Insurance Com
panies, in an interview on the subject,
made the astonishing statement that
the reason why so many applicants for
insurance are rejected is because kid
ney trouble is so common to the
American people, and the large major
ity OF applicants do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
He states that judging from his own
experience and reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch
with the public, there is one prepare
ton that has probably been more sue
cessful in relieving and curing these
diseases than any remedy known. The
mild and healing influence of DIR. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for its remarkable
record of cures.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly
an herbal compound an we would adj
wise our readers who feel in need Of
such a remedy to give it trial. 1t is
on sale at all drug stores in bottles OF
two sizes-fifty cents and one-dollar.
However, if you wish first to test it's
wonderful merits, send to DR.. Kilmer
& Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a sam
pie bottle, absolutely free. When writ
Ing be sure and mention this paper.

take much Of any sort of food Even
the various kinds prescribed by the
doctor produced most acute pain.
1--WE then got some Grape-Nuts food,
and you can imagine my surprise and
delight when l found that l could eat
it with relish and without the slight
est distress.
when the doctor heard of it he told
me to take several small portions each
day, because he feared I would grow
tired of it as 1 had of all other food
But to his surprise, land that of
everybody else), l did not tire of
Grape-Nuts, and became better day by
day, till, after some weeks, my stom-
ach entirely recovered and was able
to eat anything my appetite craved
MY nerves, which had become so
weakened that l feared 1 would be-
come insane. were also restored by
the GrapeNuts food in connection
with Postum which has become our

that good housekeeping consists in

heroism if the chance arose. but the
man who actually does the humdrum,

duties arise."-Theodore Roosevelt.
