A WARNING 70 MANY
Some Interesting Facts About
Kidney Troubles.

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condition
of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases OF
serious illness, makes a chemical analy-
sis of the patients urine. He knows
that unless the kidneys are doing their
work properly. the other organs cannot
readily be brought back to health and
strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics, Bright's disease, which is really
an advanced form of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in
1913, in the state of New York alone.
Therefore, it behooves US TO pay more
attention to the health of these most
important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as kidney rem
edy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the
great Kidney, Liver and Bladder Rem
edy-
The mild and healing influence of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon re-
allied, according to sworn statements
and verified testimony of those who have
used the remedy.
If you feel that your kidneys require
attention, and wish sample bottle,
write to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton,
N. Y. Mention this paper, enclose ten
cents and they will gladly forward it to
you by Parcel Post.
