covered after years of
scientific research by
Dr. Kilmer, the emi-
nent kidney and blad-
der specialist, and is
wonderfully successful In promptly curing
lame back, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou-
bles. and Bright’s Disease, which is the worst
form of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is not rec-
ommended for everything but if you have kid-
ney, liver or bladder trouble It will be found
Just the remedy you need. It has been tested
In so many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to pur-
chase relief and has proved so successful In
every case that a special arrangement has
been made by which all readers of this paper
who have not already tried it, may have a
sample bottle sent free by mail, also a book
telling more about Swamp-Root and how to
find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.

people put him in as their city marshal
we do not thiuk they will ever hnve
cauffe to regret it.

There has been about $30,000 pledged

J. T. Satterfle.d, of Nile, was a p’eas
ant visitor at the Messenger office last
Friday and subscribed for the Messen-
ger. He had just returned from Prince-
ton, Kentucky, where he was raised.
He ha<i been away twelve years, and
says the country looks ruined now;
the fine farms that were being culti-
vated when he was a boy are worn out
and turned out to grow up in sassafras
sprouts, and all the available land has
been put in cultivation that was in the
woods when he left there, and much
of it is worn out, and he could not Bee
what there was to induce a man to
stay there or go back to after living in
Texas. He says he thinks more of
Texas after seeing his old Kentucky
home.
