'J Almost everybody who reads the news­ papers is sure to know of the wonderful cures made by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It is the great medi­ cal triumph of the nine­ teenth century; dis­ covered after years of scientific research by Dr. Kilmer, the emi­ nent kidney and blad­ der specialist, and is wonderfully successful in promptly curing lame back, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou­ bles and Bright's Disease, which is the worst form of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root Is not rec­ ommended for everything but if you have kid­ ney, liver or bladder trouble it will be found just the remedy you need. It has been tested in so many ways, in hospital work, in private practice, among the helpless too poor to pur­ chase relief and has proved so successful in every case that a special arrangement has been made by which all readers of this paper who have not already tried it, may have a sample bottle sent free by mail, also a book telling more about Swamp-Root and how to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble. When writing mention reading this generous offer in this paper and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,Bing- hamlon, N. Y. The regular fifty cent and dollar sites are-sold by all good WAUCODNA.

GUILTY OP GROSS J^EGLIGENCE DID NOT HEED VASNINGS This ts the verdict that should bo re»» dered In so many cases of death from kid* ney diseases. A slight disorder, whidl could have been easily cured, is neglacteA and terminates in Bright's Disease or Diabetes. Most of these victims could km beat- saved by taking Folbt's Kemhct as it positively will cure any case of kid* ney or bladder disease if taken in tim% but it cannot make new kidneys for you. So don't risk life and health by delay bttt take Folky'b Kidney Cure at once. Diseased kidneys injure all of the or­ gans as they then fail to eliminate poisons from the blood which accounts for tbt many different symptoms of this disease Foley's Kidney Cube makes the kid* neys right and the attendant ills quickly disappear. Watch your kidneys, as you may ba drifting to ward's Bright's Disease; axrij^ remember, that the work of destructraa goes on constantly, and if you have rea­ sons to believe your kidneys or bladder are affected, you should take FouyV Kidney Cuke at once and remove all possibility of fatal results. Seymour Webb, of Moira, N.Y., writeM "I had been troubled with my kidney* for twenty-five years and had tried sever­ al physicians but received no relief untU I bought a bottle of Foley's Kidnby Cube. After using two bottles I wis absolutely cured. I earnestly recgnuuepA Foley's Kidney Cuke." , N. H. PETESCH. ̂ 1 ' ••S'i CHARLES C. FRflT Wholesale udntalh. dealer In "Watch The Kidneys."
