I dont, care anything about your denom)ina. tional theoiies or church governmuent and you need not care ansthing about mi.e. God gives the same Spirit to all of every faith and order who seek His will.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis courages and lessens ambition: beauty, vigor _. _ and cheerfulness soon I * A . disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. -- Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born Safflicted with weak kid \ - neys. If the child urin - ates too often, if tthe urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cauce of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the fir-t step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unrleazant treuble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
