Rightly estimating unemployed relief thru public

After the Influenza

II gets you in the head or
back-suddenly-and oh, how
you suffer-. all on account of
that little influenza bacillus.
1t is a fact that when nature
tries to throw off the poisons
from the body the result
sometimes is inflammation of
the kidneys. Therefore, the
best way is TO assist nature as
much as you can either before
or after the attack by throw
ing off the poisons (toxins)
from the body thru the ex-
cretory organs. such as the
bowels, skin and kidneys.
Drink plenty of hot water, hot
or cold lemonade, take DR..
Pierce's Anuric Tablets for
the kidneys and backache.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

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.
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
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 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 & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv
