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 Dr. 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. It 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 & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., for . sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.
