Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. Weak and unhealthy kidneys are re­ sponsible for much sickness and suffering, therefore, if kidney trouble is permitted to continue, serious re­ sults are most likely to follow. Your other organs may need at­ tention, but your kid­ neys most, because they do most and should have attention first. Therefore, when your kidneys are weak or out of order, you can understand how quickly your en­ tire body is affected and how every organ seems to fail to do its duty. ' - If you are sick or "feel badly," begin taking the great kidney remedy, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. A trial will con­ vince you of its great merit. The mild and immediate effect of Swamp-Root, the great kidney and bladder remedy, is soon realized. It stands the highest because its remarkable health restoring properties have been proven in thousands of the most distress- lag cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists in fifty-cent and one-dol­ lar sizes. You may have a sample bottle by mail free, also a pamphlet telling you H«D. oTS^mp-aiot. how to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble. Mention this paper when writing to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Don't make any mis­ take, but remember the name, Swamp- Root, and don't let a dealer sell you something in place of Swainp-Root--if you do you will be disappointed. W. Wingate this week.
