All the b'>ood In your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. a Th® kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fall to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney ♦rouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned blood through veins and arteries. I; used to be considered that only urinary ^troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on its merits by all druggists in fifty- cent and one-dollar siz es. You may have a sample bcttie by mail Home of Swamp-Root, free, a'.so pamphlet telling you how to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble. Mention this paper when writing Dr. Kilmer 81 Co., Binghamton. N. Y. Final Discharge. Notice is hereby given that I will apply to Hon. J. K. Webster, Probate Judge for Cherokee County, S.
