Apoplexy, or cerebral hemor-

most serious of the acute diseases.

often to the aged.
Babies often recover, II the hem
orrhage has not been extensive, but
they may carry palsied arm or leg

recover completely from 1t.
Those who are attacked in middle

The hemorrhage is upon, or into,

Of nerve fbers and cells, is very
soft and yielding and is abundantly

The quantity of blood lost in an

the vessel which breaks, and the
amount of resistance 1t meets.
II the hemorrhage is upon the
surface Of the brain, 1t will usual

few hours by its pressure upon, and
destruction of, vital parts.
II the vessel is within the brain,
the blood escapes more slowly,

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
 EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance
 Often Rejected

An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Com panies, in an interview of the subject made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large ma jority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.
 Judging from. reports from drug gists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very suc- cessful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp -Rootsi soon realized. It stands the highest for it's remark able 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 8, remedy to give it a trial. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes, medium and large.
