If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the BGSl--
Dr.. 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 plain-the article did not fulfill
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 have been
benefited to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, "aTake for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation / have sold for many years
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 .
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Svapmp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder ailments, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
Swamp-Root by parcel post. Address Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.

years bumper harvest is as large as
last years, plus last years importa-
tons, and a surplus still remains that
will enable Germany to export food
for the first time in modern history.
But this very expectation is the
heaviest cross yet laid upon the vul-
gar German back. 1t is a financial
opportunity for a restricted class. The
empty larder of the average German
receives less consideration from the
average German profteer than the
needs of Armenia.

He Didn't Fit

A new reason for being excused
from jury duty was offered recently to
a California court. Eleven jurors had
been accepted and sworn in. The
twelfth man glanced at the already
well-flled box where the other jurors
were seated and objected that he was
fat, a1d that there was no room for
him to sit. The objection was ac-
copied as valid. The fat man was
excused and a thin one was sworn in.
