What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH

Few people realize to what extent THEN
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of Sc
rious illness, makes a chemical analysis
of the patients urine. He knows that IN
less the kidneys are doing their work
properly, tho 0ther organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
aBusSl in any way, serious results are sure
TO follow. Therefore, it is particularly
necessary to pay more attention to the
health of these important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as a kidney remedy is
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
The mild and healing influence Of this
preparation. IN most cases. is coon real
lied. according 10 sworn statements and
verified testimony Of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get Swamp-Root at once from any phar-
macy. Il Is sold by every druggist IT bot
ties OF two sizes-5Oc and $50.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation, send ten cents to Dr..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, y. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Ady.

Treatment of Walls.

If a molding is liked from which to
hang the pictures that do so much to
make our rooms homelike. the best
height for the molding is in line with
the top of the doors. The modern idea
seems TO be to bring the window wood
work to the floor by using a paneling
beneath the sill, and to carry the tops
of doors and windows to a fixed line
the molding line. Thus the walls are
divided into rectangular spaces, and
the decorative effect of a good paper
is enhanced. A plain paper has the
dignity Of a panel when so used.
