INSURE HEALTH.

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condition
OF their 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 20 health and
strength
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way. serious results are
sure To follow According TO health sta
tistics. Brights Disease, which is real
ly an advanced form Of kidney trou-
bile, caused nearly ten thousand deaths
in one yearfin the state OF New York
alone. Therefore, 1t is particularly nee
essary to pay more attention to the
health OF these important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as n kidney
remedy is DR. Kllmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder
remedy.
The mild and healing influence OF
this preparation. in most cases, is soon
realized. according TO sworn statements
and verified testimony OF those who
have used the remedy.
When your kidneys require atten-
ton, get Swamp Root at once from any
pharmacy II is sold by every druggist
in bottles OF two sizes-50c and 800.
However. II you wish first TO test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer Geo. Binghamton, ". Y, for
a sample bottle. When writing be sure
and mention the Louisa weekly Big
