Important to all Women
Readers Of this PAPER

Thousands upon Thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Wo,nen's complaints often prove to b
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result Of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con.
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita.
bic and may be despondent; it makes any
one 30.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr..
kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for . sample bottle to see
what Swamp.Ro the great kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, will do for
them. By enclosing ten cents to DR..
kilmer q Co.. Binghamton, N. Y, you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel

grease and the whiting supplies the
abrasion. Some of the commercial
cleaning preparations used for enam-

of cleaning gradually harder. Nothing
