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
20 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected il because kidney trouble i 80 com
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of thosc 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 Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. 1t 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 Dr.
Kilmer Z Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this psper.-Adv.
