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.. Kimer's Swamp Root Is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physiciGn for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on 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. II is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
