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.. KilIner'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 appiica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. DR.. Kilnier's
Swamp-Root is on sale at all drug stores
in bottles of two sizes, medium andlarge.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
