 KIDNEY TROUBLE

have a boy who had the bed wet ting habit from infancy, and also had much trouble with his Kidneys. Two years ago they became so bad, and having tried a great many reme- dies without relief, l consulted a doc tor who advised me to try Swamp Root. I obtained one fifty-cent bot tie and he had not taken more than three-fourths of it when he became entirely well, and has not been trou- = bled since. To any parent who has a child suf- fering from these troubles, I cheer fully recommend Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root and consider it a, won- derful medicine.
