Important to all Women
Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a 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 respondent; it makes any
one so.
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-Root. the great kidney, liver and
bladder medicine, will do for them. By
enclosing ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co.
Binghamton. N. Y. you may receive sam
pie size bottle by Parcel Post. You can
purchase medium and large size bottles at
