II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best
Or. kiImsr'S Swamp Root

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises Of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who ave been
benefited to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, 'Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation ] rave sold for many Year,
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of Thousands who have
used the preparation. the success of DR..
kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
20 many people claim. that il fulflls almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder ailments, c~orrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
Swamp Root by parcel post. Address DIR.
kilmer q Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.

Tornado and Cyclone

The tornado may be regarded as n
concentrated cyclone as it covers only
n SINAI area. 1t Is generally much
more destructive of life and property (;
It's track Is narrow and Its course
short; and 1t usually occurs in the
summer months. A cyclone may cover
hundreds of square miles and may
occur Mt any time. Both are bodies
of air in a definite whirl about n cen
trail point. The tornado Is usually
heralded by n funnel-shnped cloud.
While "A tornado effects great destruc-
ton, as In Omaha in 1913, n cyclone
may produce only heavy transforms
