Do You Get Up With a Lame Back? Kidney Trouble Makes You Miserable. Almost everyone knows of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, be­ cause of its remark­ able health restoring I properties. Swamp- Root fulfills almost every wish in over­ coming rheumatism, pain in the back, kid­ neys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often through the day, and to get up many times during the night. Swamp-Root is not recommended for everything but if you have kidney, liver or bladder trouble, it will be found just the remedy you need. It has been thor­ oughly tested in private practice, and has proved so successful that a special ar­ rangement has been made by which all readers of this paper, who have not al­ ready 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 kid- ^ ney or bladder trouble. When writing mention reading this generous offer in this paper and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Hone oi^wunp-Koot. Binghatnton, N. Y. The regular fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles are sold by all druggists. Don't make any mistake but remember the name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the ad­ dress, Bmghamton, N. Y», on every bottle. OSTEND. Allen Colby is visiting at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Wm. Gilbert. C. E. Gaylqrd and wife transacted business at the county seat last Thurs­ day. Mr. and Mrs. C. E.
