OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

A medicinal preparation like
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, that
has real curative value almost
sells itself. Like an endless
chain system the remedy is rec
commended by those who have
been benefited to those who are
in need of it.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is a
physicians prescription. 1t has
been tested for years and has
brought results to countless num-
bers who have suffered.
The success of DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that 1t fulfills almost every wish
in overcoming kidney, liver and
bladder diseases, corrects urin-
airy troubles and neutralizes the
uric acid which causes rheuma-
tism.
Do not suffer. Get bottle of
Swamp-Root from any druggist
now. Start treatment today.
However, IL you wish first to
test this great preparation send
ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co..
Dept. M. Binghamton, N. Y, for
sample bottle.

Feminists have suggeted
the "salaried wife" as the
best way out of this tragedy.
Unmarried women who dis
pense their own wages do SO
with fair wisdom. Married
women would do quite as
well, say critics of their own
sex, If they were to conduct
their homes on the basis of
paid service and not on the
basis of payment in senti-
ment.
Feminists also assert that all
this can be managed without the
sacrifice of ideal love in mar
riage; that, on the contrary, 1t
will destroy the source of dis
agreement in the home and that
it will achieve REAL RECIPROC-
ITY between man and woman
