Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp-Root, DR.. Kilmer's PreScrip-
ton, Overcomes Kidney trouble

1t is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the ether organs to re-
markable degree and do a tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
filtering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as.
sistance when needed. We take less ex-
ercise, drink less water and often eat more
rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kid
neys to do more work than nature in
tended. Evidence of kidney trouble, such
as lame back, annoying bladder troubles,
smarting or burning, brickdust or sedi.
ment, sallow complexion, rheumatism,
maybe weak or irregular heart action,
warns you that your kidneys require nelp
Immediately to avoid more serious trou.
bic.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as a kidney and
bladder remedy is Dr. kilmer's Swamp.
Root. There is nothing else like it. 1t
is DR.. Kilmer's prescription used in pri-
vate practice and it is sure to benefit you.
Get bottle from your druggist.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation. send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. v for
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

Coming M. E. Conference

An article in the Wilmington Every
Evening, of February 8, with refer
ence to the coming M. E. Conference,
reads as follows:
"Plans for the coming M. E. Confer
ence, which have been somewhat re-
tarded by the Tabernacle meetings and
the illness of Rev. Vaughan S. Collins,
and Rev. w. F. Corkran, are now shap-
ing up. Mr.. Corkran is pastor of Un-
ion Church. where conference is to sit,
and Mr.. Collins is a leading member
of the arrangements committee.
Conference will convene in Union
Church on March 20, with Bishop JOS
eph T. Berry, of Philadelphia. presid-
irg, hut arrangements for entertain
nent of ministers and other details
have not been completed owing to the
illness of some of the ministers.
At the conclusion of the Tabernacle
meetings, attention will be turned to
the coming session of conference, and
it is expected that everything will be
in readiness when the times arrives
and that the conference will be one of
the most successful ever held.
The number of accessions to the
church during the conference year just
drawing to a close will undoubtedly be
the largest in the history of the Will
mington conference. This gain will be
largely due to the number of new con-
verts coming into the church as the
result of the Tabernacle meetings.
