The name Barnum & Bailey is
a household phrase and the flash-

boards and in the newspapers
means to the community more
than mere words can explain to
countless numbers.

An examining physician for one of

matte the astonishing statement that
T .. . . .. , j one reason why so many applicants
Institute opened Monday morn- for lnsuranoe ape ejected is because
ing with an enrollment Ot 177 kidney trouble is so common to the
teachers—the largest attendance I American people, and the iarjfe ma-
jority of those whose applications
are declined do not suspect that they
have the disease.
According to this it would seem
that medicine for the kidneys, posses-
sing real healing and curative prop-
erties. would bo a blessing to thou-
sands.
Dr. Kilmer & Co , Binghamton, N.
Y., who prepare Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root, the well Known kidney, liver
and bladder remedy, claim that judg-
ing from evidence received from drug-
gists everywhere, who are constantly
iu touch with their customers, and al-
so indisputable proof in the form of
grateful testimonial letters from thou-
sands of reliable citizens, this prepar-
ation is remarkably successful in
siekuess caused by kidney and blad-
der trouble. Every interesting state-
ment they receive regarding Swaiup-
Root is investigated and no testimo-
nial is published unless the party who
semis it is reported of goml character.
They have on hie many sworn state-
ments of recoveries in the most dis-
tressingcases. They state that Dr. Kil-
mer’s Swamp Root is mild and and gen- j
tie in its action and its healing influ-
ence is soon noticed iu most cases.
Swamp-Root is purely an herbal
compound anil fir. Kilmer & Co. ad-
vise all readers who feel in need of
such a remedy to give it a trial. It is
on sale at all drug stores in bottles of
two sizes—50c and $1.00. However,
if you wish to test this great prepara-
tion send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer &
Co.. Binghampton, N. Y.. for a sam-
ple bottle. When writing be sure men-
