A medicinal preparation that haa real curative value almost sella itself, as like an endlccn chain system the remedy ia recommended by those who have been benefited to those who are in need of it. A prominent druggist says, “Take for example Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a preparation I have sold* for TOapy year* and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent re sults, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large a sale.” According to sworn statements and verified testiifiony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills al most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and hlad<fcr ailments, fcorrects uri nary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which^capses rheumatism.
