KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
SO many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so com
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct, touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success. :
We find that Swamp Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would ad-
wise our readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it trial. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.

sample bottle. When writing be sure and

CARTER AT THE FROM !,
Sensational New York Golfer Do

Driver of Red Cross Ambulance Tells
of Great War Game for Which
He Has Forsaken Links
Under Fire Many Times.

Phil Carter, the sensational young
New York golfer, is doing his bit with
the American Red Cross in France,
where he drives an ambulance close to
the firing lines, day after day.
In recent letter to friends on this
side of the pond Carter told something
Of the great war game for which he
has fOrsaken the links. He has been
under fire many times, and the night
drives he has been forced to make,
along rough and treacherous roads,
without lights, have convinced him
that war is a terribly serious game.

Defeat Backache and Kidney
Trouble With Anuric


Many people in this section have suffer-
ed from rheumatism and kidney trouble
and have found that Anuric was the most
successful remedy to overcome these
painful and dangerous ailments.
The lucky people are those who have
suffered, but who are now well because
they needed natures warning signal In
time to correct their trouble with that
wonderful new discovery Of DR.. Pierce's
called "An-u-ric' double strength). You
should promptly heed these warnings,
some Of which are dizzy spells. backache,
irregularity of the urine or the painful
twinges Of rheumatism. sciatica or lum-
bago. To delay may make possible the
dangerous forms of kidney disease, such
as stone in the bladder. II you want
quick relief buy Anuric now (60c a pack
age)-or send DR.. Pierce 10c for trial pkg.
This will prove that "Anuric" eliminates
uric acid as hot water melts sugar.
