Wrong food and drink cause lot of
trouble in this world. To change is

larly from stomach and nervous trou-

again by leaving eff coffee and some
articles OF food that did not agree with
her.
She says:

ago | left off coffee and began using
Postum. My stomach and bowels
improved right along, but I was so re-

least thing would overcome me.

using Grape-Nuts in addition to
Postum. l lived on these two princi-

What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH

Few people realize to what extent their
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 I'M
less the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
lbe brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused 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
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
The mild and healing influence of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon real
ized, according to 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. 1t is sold by every druggist in bot
tiles of two sizes-50c and Sl00.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation, send ten cents to DR..
