This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition or the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swarnp=Root is soon realized.
