Gentlemen :
I feci it my duty to send you an acknowledgment ol the receipt of the sample bottle of Swamp
Root you so kindly sent me. I had been out of health for the past five years with kidney and bladder
trouble. Had our best physicians prescribe lor me. They would relieve me for the time being, but the old
complaint would in a short time return again. I sent for a sample bottle of Swamp-Root and found it did
me :i world of good. Since then I have t.iken eight small bottles bought at my drug store, and I consider
myself perfectly cured. It seemed as though my back would break in two after stooping. I do not have
to get up during the night to urinate as I formerly did, three or four times a night, but now sleep the sleep
of peace. My buck is all right again, and in every way I am a new man. Two of my brother officers are
still using Swamp-Root. They, liku myself, cannot say too much in praise of it. It is a boon to mankind.
We iccommend it to all humanity who'are suffering from kidney and bladder diseases. p.
My brother officers (whose signatures accompany this letter), as well as myself, 'thank you for the
blessing vou have broimht to the human race in the compounding of Swamp-Root.
We remain, yours veiy Iruly, JAMES COOK,

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCLRN :
I ha.i been a sufferer for over four years from severe attacks of
rheumatism and Kidney trouble, probably contracted by exposure on
ImntinK expeditions and wading trout streams. I tried many reme
dies, the patent and other kind, but none of them see.ied to do me
any jjood. 1 was pers laded bv an old and valued friend to try
Sw.1mp.K00t, and fr.inMv confess it has benefited me as no other
medicine lias. I now tl like myself ai?am. I do not have the-con-stant
aches and pains which at one time seemed to make life un
bearable. It is ,1 positive benefit in ailments of this kind. I always
keep it in the house, as it is just as necessary as bread and butter.
Very respectfully.

His Physician Prescribed Swamp-Root.
NEW YORK, Nov. 18, 1899.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
I was all run down in health and spirits, from overworK on
the Exchange floor. I developed nervous neuralgia and also suf
fered from an acute attack of rheumatism.
Of course, I had careful medical attendance, but while conva
lescing my own physician himself ordered me to take Swamp
Root to build up my nervous system, and put my kidneys in
shape. It helped ine more than any curative or tonic I overused,
and now I always keep it in my medicine chest. With best
wishes for sufferers,

quickly your entire body Is affected,
nnd how every organ seems to fall to
do Its duty. 9
If you arc sick or "feel badly," be

fering than any other disease, and it
permitted to continue fatal results are
Kuro to follow. Kidney trouble lrrl
tntes the nerves, makes you dley,
restless, sleepless and Irritable. Makes
you pass water often during the day

sallow, yellow complexion; makes you
feel as though you had heart trouble;
you may have plenty of ambition, but

away.
The cure for these troubles Is Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the world
famous kldnej remedy. In taking
Swamp-Root you afford natural help
to nature, for Swamp-Root is tho most
perfect healer and gentle aid to the
kidneys that Is known to medical sci
ence If there Is any doubt In your mind
as to your condition, take from your
urinp on rising about four ounces,
place It in it glass or bottle and lee
It stand twenty-four hours. If,,, on ex
amination, it Is milky or cloudy, If
there Is a brick-dust settling, or If
small particles float about In It, your
kidneys ura In need of immediate at
tention. Swamp-Root Is pleasant to take apd
