Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp Root, Dr.. Kilmer'S Prescrip-
ton, 0vercOmeS Kidney Trouble

1t 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
hltering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as
sistance when needed. We take less ex-
sreise, 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.

heart action, warns you that your kid.

more serious trouble.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as a kidney and

Root. There is nothing else like it. 1t

Doctor Fewkes says that there IS ey-
cry reason to believe that there were
formerly as many buildings of this
kind as there were cliff dwellings ia
the canyons, practically about one hun
dred of them. They seem TO have
been arranged in groups surrounding
or near Mummy lake. an artificial de-
preston surrounded by an encircllng
ridge or wall. and undoubtedly used
as Il reservoir both for drinking anu
irrigation waters.
The mound chosen TO be excavated
stands near the Government road at
the southwest corner of the group
area. and only a few steps from the
rim of Soda canyon. 1T might well
be called Far View House., says the
