Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp-Root, Dr.. Kilmer's Prescrip-
ton, Overc0mes Kidney Trouble

It is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to a re-
markable degree and do a tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
fltering 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 kidneys to do more work than nature
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble,
such as lame back, annoying bladder
troubles, smarting or burning, brick
dust or sediment, sallow complexion,
rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular
heart action, warns you that your kid
neys require help Immediately to avoid
more serious trouble.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as kidney and
bladder remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. There is nothing else like it. It
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. Y, for .
sample bottle. When writing be sure and

The story of Samson is the story of
the strongest man that ever lived. His
name today is known to almost every
man, woman and child throughout the
civilized world, and even those that
do not know his story, his name is
synonymous of strength But besides
that, the thrilling story of the life OF
that man. to whom God gave power
and strength such as no man possess
cd and to whom he gave carte blanche
in righting his wrongs, is the most
spectacular, romantic and tragic OF
any of the heroes of antiquity.
The film representation which the
Universal has evolved from the his
tory of Samson and tod in six won
derful reels follows the account in the
books of Judges with startling accur-
acy Nothing is left out The film
shows the anxiety Of Samsons 5 parents

PARADE OF SHOW
Barnes Enterprise. in First Visit to
Rock Island. Makes An Excellent
Impression.

The Al G. Barnes circus is in Rock
Island today. Performances are to be
given this afternoon and tonight in
Exposition park.
1t is the first visit of the Barnes
show to this city. having in previous
seasons having confined its tours to
the southwest. Barnes in a few years
has built up one of the most unique
and successful shows in the world. It
has the reputation also of being one of
the cleanest.
The parade this morning through
the business section in many respects
was surprise to the thousands of
people who witnessed it. Other cir
cuses reveal few of their wild animals
in the parade. The policy of Barnes
is the opposite. He opens the cages
and shows the animals and their
trainers. If the display in the parade
is to be taken as a criterion the finest
wild animal exhibition that has ever
been seen in Rock Island is in store
for those who attend the circus. The
line also included the other features
usually seen in a circus parade.
Fred Fulton, who is to meet Jess
Willard on Labor day, is travelling
with the show, and will make his ap-
pearance at both performances here, it
is announced by the management.
