It used to be considered that only uri- nary and bladder troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all diseases have their beginning in the disorder of these most important organs. The kidneys filter and purify . “lood —that is their work. So when your kidneys are weak bnr out of order, you can understand how dquickly your entire body is affected, and how every organ seems to fail to do its duty. If you are sick or “feel badly,” begin taking the famous new discovery, Dr.’ Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because as soon as your kidneys are well they will help all the other organs to health. Disordered kidneys are respon:ible for more sickness and suffering than any other disease. Kidney trouble irritates the nerves, makes you dizzy, restless, sleepless and irritable. Makes you pass water often during the day and obliges you to get up many times during the night. Causes rheumatism and neural- gia, pain or dull ache in the back, joints | back ache, causes indigestion, stomach and liver trouble; you get a sallow, yel- low complexion; makes you feel as | though you had heart trouble; you have | plenty of ambition, but no strength, get weak and waste away. The cure for these troubles is Dr Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the world-fa- mous kidney remedy. In taking Swamp-Root you afford na- tural help to nature, for Swamp-Root is the most perfect healer and gentle aid to the kidneys that is known to medical science. If there is any doubt in your mind as We re- | to your condition, take from your urine on rising about four ounces, place it in a glass or bottle, and let it stand twen- y-four hours. If, on examination, it is milky or cloudy, if there is a brick-dust settling, or if small particles float about in it, your kidne; e in need of imme- diate attention. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is used in the leading hospitals, recom- mended by skilliul physicians in their private practice, and is taken by doc- tors themselves who have kidney ail- ments; because they recognize in it the greatest and most successful remedy for kidney, liver and bladder troubles. To prove its wonderful efficacy, send | your name and address to Dr. Kilmer | & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., mentioning that you read this generous offer in the San Francisco Daily Call, when you will receive immediately by mail free of all charge, a sample bottle of Swamp- Root and a namphlet of valuable infor- mation pertaining to kidney and bladder diseases.
