"THE GREATEST KIDNEY REMEDY

FUL WOMAN.

1 want to tell you how much good
your Swamp-Root did me. About four
years ago. 1 suffered from what the
doctors called fstula and for two
years of that time, endured what no
tongue can tell. l also had infamma-
ton of the bladder and tried doctors
medicines without receiving any help.
Someone told me about DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root.
After giving It thorough trial, I
received relief, so kept on using it
and today I am strong and yell wo-

believe that his medicine would cure
