fellow? Are you trying to commit sui

The boy did not answer, He had
been employed in a drug store in
Broadway, and there, he confessed to
the police, had fallen into the habit
of pilfering cocaine and using it. He
told also Of going to the East Seven

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Geaulue Merit Required to Win the
Peoples Confidence.

Have you v e stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tsnsively 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 manufacturer.
This applies more particularly to a med
icine. A medicinal preparation that has
real curative value almost sells itself,
as like an endless chain system the
remedy Is recommended by those who
are in need Of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. KiImer's Swamp-R Root, a
preparation / have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for
in almost every case it shows excellent
results, as many Of my customers testi-
fly. No other kidney remedy that |
know Of has so large a sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who
have used the preparation, the success
of DR.. kilmer's swamp Root is due to
the fact that it fuIfIIs almost every
wish in overcoming kidney, liver and
bladder diseases. corrects urinary
troubles and neutraIizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.
