There Is comfoit In tho knowledge
so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in relieving pain In
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and

necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the nlgh't to uri
nate. The mild and the extraordinary
