Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there 1s one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions, The mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized, It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re
jected is because kidney trouble is so
eommon to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica:
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. Tt is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr
Kilmer & Co., Binzhamton, N. Y.. for a
sample bottle, When writing be sure and

thrown him off half-way around a
curve, and the red light of the caboose
was still visible at the farther horn of
the crescent.
He gazed at it stupidly and rubbed
his eyes with his swollen knuckles, but
still the red light persisted there, and
it came to him slowly that the train
must have stopped.
The wagon road the tramp had been
thrown upon might lead to a town, but
he couldn't tell how far off it might
be, or in which direction. The train
was there, and now that he was hurt
the hobo thought he might get the crew
to jet him ride to the next station; If
not, he might hide himself somehow,
He was wondering only whether he
sould enteh them In time to ask them
fo let him on again; and If they
wouldn't, he was planning where he
might hide from them.
Then he saw that something was
the mutter with the train. The cars
were not straight on the track, but
were lying across it in every direction.
The roofs had slid down and the sides
bulged out. Big boards and barrels
and boxes were thrown about, nnd as
far as the tramp could see through the
darkness, the wavy line of enes zig
