ThereCte a disease prevailing in this country most dangerous because so decep­ tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by it -- heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure or apoplexy (-- are often the result of kidney disease. If kidney trouble is al­ lowed to advance the k i d n e y - p o i s o n e d blood will attack the ^ vital organs or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell. Bladder troubles most always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scald­ ing pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won­ derful cures of the most distressing cases. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sized bottles. You may have a sample bottle of this wonderful new dis­ covery and a took that tells all about it, both Home of 8w&mp-Root. sent free by mail. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co. Binehamton, N. Y.

I need everything known to the profession with­ out relief, until I was induced to use FOLEY'S KIDNEY CUBE. After taking three bottles I was entirely relieved and cured.
