THE daring and adventurous spirits,
who, Drawing the perils and hardships
of pioneer life, founded and shared In
the upbuilding Of an imperial West up
on the crest of this continent, in the
ordinary course OF nature are rapidly
passing away. Those who, lured on
by the hopes and ambitions Of youth

gloomy, forbidding recesses, and
opened those vast treasure vaults
which have added countless millions
to the wealth Of the world, have out

these Argonauts OF empire builders

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
serious illness, makes a chemical analy-
sis Of the patients urine. He knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back TO health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics, Bright's Disease, which is really
an advanced form Of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one
year, in the State Of New York alone
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
Ia DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The mild and healing influence Of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon real
lied, 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. II is sold by every druggist in
bottles Of two sizes-5oc and sl.00.
However, il you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer 4 Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
