JOllINS "ONE & WE1KOCH, 1' n'nt.ff'5 Attorn s The Eminent Kidney and Bladder Specialist, The Discoverer of Swamp-Root at Work in Ris Laboratory. There 'is a discase prevailing in this country most dangerous because so decep tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by it--heart disease, pneurnoniA, heart failure or apoplexy are often the result of kidney disease. If kidr-y trouble is allowed to ad vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack the vital organ3, or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell. Then the richness of the blood-the albumen -leaks out and the sufferer has Bright's DIease, the worst form of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer's Swanlp..Root the new dis covery is the true specific for kidney, bladder and urinary troubles. It has cured thousands of apparently hopeless cases, after all other efforts have failed. At druggists in fifty-cent and dollar sizes. A sample bottle sent free by mail, also a book telling about Swamp Root and its wonderful cures. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. and mention this paper.
