BEST TIMES FOR SOWING AND PLANTING

FOR THE USE OF FARMERS AND GARDENERS

The effects of the Moon's influence on vegetation should be carefully studied. The influence which the Moon has upon the tides will convince the mind of its proportionate action in vegetable life. The initial processes of planting and sowing are more intimately connected with the reflection of light and other influences from the Moon than may at first be apparent. Among other causes it will be found that evaporation from the sap-cells of plants is greater at the full of the Moon than at other times, and the circulation of the sap is correspondingly accelerated. So with seeds. The vegetative power of the Moon at the full favors germination. Try this experiment and convince yourselves. Take a handful of peas and sow them at the full of the Moon in good moist soil. Sow another handful in the same soil under the same conditions and at the same time of the day, but on the wane of the Moon Plant and sow when the Moon is in a fruitful sign; and if you wish the seed to grow very quickly, plant as the Moon is rising, or in a movable sign, as this is said to accelerate the germination and growth of seed.

Castration should not be performed when the moon is in np, s~ or m» or the animal will not thrive, and ( may die.

LETTER FROM GREENSBURG, INDIANA

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingharnton, N. Y. Green^burg, Indiana

Gentlemen: — For years I was troubled by blood discharges from the bladder. I was in such shape that sleep at night was impossible. My illness made it necessary for me to arise many times during the night. At work it was the same way. While bending over, I would be stricken with such a pain that it was im- possible for me to straighten up. One of our leading druggists advised Swamp-Root; as a last resort I purchased a dollar bottle.. I noticed a decided change, and after using two bottles I was completely cured. It seemed remarkable that I should be cured so quickly after being ill so long. Would highly advise any one suffering from the same trouble to at least give Swamp-Root a trial. .

Yours very truly, THOMAS A. BENNETT.

Personally appeared before me this 14th day of February, 1913, Mr. Thomas A. Bennett, who subscribed the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact.

;! Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Don't Know It. 1

KIDNEY, LIVER AND BLADDER TROUBLES ARE USUALLY INDICATED BY THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS:

Kidney complaint

highly colored urine

brick dust in urine

uric acid

urinary troubles

sudden stoppage of urine

calculi

gravel

stone in the bladder Irritation of the bladder Cystitis (inflammation of the bladdcri dribbling

straining after urinating retention of urine frequent calls pain in urinating Impure bloo«J

Pass blood or mucus In urine

pain in urethra

pain Sn the back

backache

catarrh of bladder

pain In joints or hips

rheumatism

thick or sluggish urine

scanty urine

dropsy or swelling of the feet

loss of flesh

liver complaint

constipation

biliousness

Torpid liver

enlarged liver

sour stomach

loss of appetite

distress after eating

poor digestion

coated tongue

dyspepsia

tired and sleepless

weakness

nervousness

NOTE — All of the symptoms as given above may seem too many for a medicine, such as Swamp-Root, the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy, to relieve or over- come, but if you read carefully and stop to think, you will see that each symptom i s usually due to weak or diseased kidneys, liver or bladder.

it used to be considered that only urinary and bladder troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern "science proves that many diseases have their beginning in the disorder, of these most important organs.

Therefore, when your kidneys are weak or out of order, you can understand how quickly your entire body is affected, and how other organs seem to fail to do their duty.

If you are sick or " feel badly," on account of kidney trouble, begin taking the world-fam- ous kidney remedy, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root, because when your kidneys are well they help all the other organs to health.

As we are by nature subject to many dis- eases, the only way to guard against all stampedes on our health is to make a study of our own physical selves. If a peculiar pain attacks you, try to locate its origin and dis- cover which organ of the body is sick and in need of attention. If the kidneys are at fault — and in almost every case in the failing of our health they are — look well to their restoration to health and strength.

The mild and immediate effect of Swamp- Root, the great kidney and bladder remedy, is soon realized. It stands the highest because its remarkable curative power has been proved in thousands of the most distressing cases, ac- cording to the grateful testimony of reliable citizens and experienced druggists who have recommended it for many years.

Swamp-Root is fulfilling- its great mission. 4

LETTER FROM ROCKPORT, MISSOURI

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Rockport, Mo.

Gentlemen : — I wish to say that I have given your Swamp-Root a thorough test and am satisfied that it is a wonderful medicine. I had Kidney disease. My symptoms were pain in the back, and dizzy spells, and lips were dry, and had fever. After taking as much as four bottles of Swamp-Root, was com- pletely cured. I would gladly recommend Swamp-Root to anyone asking or writing in regard to it. You are at liberty to publish this. My age is 68 years and I have resided in Atchison County, Mo., about all my life. Yours very truly,

GEORGE PETER KISH.

Personally appeared before me this 4th day of November, 1013, Geo. Peter Kish, who substantiated the annexed statement, and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact. Dated at my office in Rockport, Atchison Co., Mo., this 4th day of November, 1913.

Joseph Durfee, Notary Public.

t

Pathological Diagram.

The above illustration shows the position of the kidneys in the human body and the Ureter tubes, the only way by which the urine is conveyed from the kidneys to the bladder.

Prevalency of Kidney Disease.

Most people do not realize the alarming increase and remarkable prevalency of kidney disease. While kidney disorders are the most common dis- eases that prevail, they are almost the last recog- nized by patients, who usually content themselves with doctoring the effects, while the original disease con- stantly undermines the system.

What to Do.

There is comfort in the knowledge that thousands of former sufferers who have tested Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, testify that it fulfills almost every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage — that it corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effect following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate — that the mild, pleasant and extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized — that it stands the highest for its remarkable results in the most dis- tressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

One of Two Ways.

The bladder was created for one purpose, namely, a receptacle for the urine, and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way, from careless local treatment cf other diseases.

Chief Cause.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder ;roubles, followed by suffer- in g so oa nii ?o n«ny that life is made miserable.

The womb, like the bladder, has only its own work to perform, and has nothing to do except in child-bearing or during the monthly menses; therefore, it is not liable to disease or weakness except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, and for that reason any pain, distress, disease or inconvenience manifested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided by paying a little attention to the condition of the urine. Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a heavy sediment or settling usually indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. Too frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull ache in the back, is also an indication that the kidneys need attention.

During Pregnancy.

It is cf especial importance that the patient's bowels should be regular and kept in the best pos- sible condition ; the use of Dr. Kilmer's Prompt Parilla Liver Pills will tend to correct irregularity of the bowels. The urine should be locked after once a week after the fourth month, to find out if there is an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. If there is such a condition, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root should be recommended on account of its splendid reputation and well-known healing influence.

Ladies will find Swamp-Root adapted to such conditions and perfectly safe under all circum- stances.

Contagious Diseases.

In cases of measles, scarlet fever and other con- tagious diseases, recovery depends largely upon the ability of the kidneys to do the extra amount of faithful work which nature, in such diseases, makes demand upon them to do. Physician or nurse should be watchful of the urine to see if the kidneys weaken, falter or fail in their important work ; should such be the case, they should have imme- diate attention and assistance. We recommend the use of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, in such cases. In some cases the kidneys may not weaken or need any special assistance until after the fever has passed, convalescence or recovery slew and uncertain ; then Swamp-Root will be found effect- ual, and will help to prevent any bad after effects.

How to Obtain Health.

The question is sometimes asked : " How many bottles of Swamp-Root will 1 have to take?" or, ' ' How long will it take to regain my health ?"

How can you expect to feel well if your kidneys are not right ?

LETTER FROM HOLUM, CALDWEL PARISH, LA.

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Holum, La., June 14th, 1914.

Dear Sirs: — I suffered for 20 years with Rheumatism; was treated by doctors and took all kinds of medicine, but found no relief until a friend of mine advised me to give Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root a trial. I told him I had lost confidence in all medicine and doctors, but he insisted and I commenced taking Swamp- Root, and to my great surprise I felt much better after taking one-half bottle. I continued taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root until I had taken nine bottles and a half; and was completely cured of Rheumatism, and I recommend Swamp-Root to all Rheumatic sufferers. I am 65 years of age and have not had a return of Rheumatism since taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root ten years ago.

Yours very truly,

JAMES M. BLOUNT.

t

Answer: The time and amount required de- pend somewhat upon the severity of the case and the condition of the system. Some cases may require more time than others to obtain the same results. It is a hard matter to tell just how few or how many bottles it will take.

Good Results Follow.

We have the most reliable evidence in the way of unsolicited letters, recommending Swamp-Root, from people who tell us they had tried many differ- ent remedies, and doctored with the best physicians for months and years without much of any benefit, so that they had no faith iu anything, not even any confidence in Swamp-Root when they commenced to take it ; others say that after they had taken one or tv/o bottles they were well on the highway of recovery ; they continued to use Swamp-Root faithfully until they were rewarded with the most gratifying results, ending with heartfelt gratitude and praise for the remedy that had brought them out safely.

When sick, and a physician is called, he is sel- dom restricted to one or two visits ; so. if your case is one of long standing, maybe chronic and per- haps complicated, don't be discouraged at the start, but give Swamp-Root time and opportunity to fulfill its great mission — that of restoring health to the sufferer. •*

To Prevent Sickness.

All who have become familiar with the high standing of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root by actual use, have realized from experience the great benefit in having the remedy always on hand, be- cause "A stitch in time saves nine," for when the system seems to be a little out of order then is the time to be watchful and take the remedy for a day or two — Swamp-Root is intended to help build up and strengthen the system.

If You Need a Medicine.

If you need a medicine, take it regularly, and as near the specified rule and direction as possible. Individual constitutions vary so much, that it is impossible to give a precise rule that will apply to everyone.

DIRECTIONS.

The dose is from one to three teaspoonfuls at a time ; may take it before, after or betweea meals, and also at bedtime ; may increase cr lessen the quantity and number of doses as the case may seem to require. Children less, according to age. It may be taken with a little water or milk if the person so desires.

If the stomach is weak, smaller doses in the beginning will be as efficient as larger doses later on. When it seems best you might omit a dose or two, or omit even for a day or so, when regular doses should be taken again. The medicine has a pleasant taste, contains no minerals, liquors or harmful drugs, and is considered a splendid remedy fcr the diseases for which it is so highly recommended.

Li

If a person should take larger doses of Swamp- Root than would seem necessary, it will be mani- fested simply by a frequent operation of the bowels (no harm can result). If the person is subject to constipation of the bowels while taking Swamp- Root, then Dr. Kilmer's Prompt Parilla Liver Pills will be found most excellent, and will work in harmony with Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root.

LETTER FROM MACON, GEORGIA.

Macon, Georgia. - Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

Gentlemen : — I wish to congratulate you upon your wonderful discovery of Swamp-Root. Some time ago I was overtaken with that awful disease we call Bladder trouble, and 1 cannot express in v/ords how I suffered from that torrible disease.

MR. E T/jA N C.ALLEN.

After all physicians had failed on my case, I read about Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and I at once purchased a bottle of it, and to my great surprise I felt relief from the first dose. I was suffering from hemorrhages of the bladder every day. I continued to take Swamp-Root, and after taking six fifty-cent bottles I was as sound as ever and am now enjoying | the best of health.

Yours truly,

ETHAN C. ALLEN,

538 Washington Ave. Personally appeared before me this 10th day of November, 1914, Ethan C. Allen, who subscribed the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact.

LETTER FROM ROCHESTER, NEW YORK

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Rochester, N. Y., August 6th, 1914.

Dear Sirs: — I am writing to you so that all sufferers will not be afraid to take your wonderful Swamp- Root, which cured me in two bottles from blood passing in my urine, and taking all the pain out of my back and hips, which I had been suffering from since June 11th, 1913, until about one month ago. I have had the best doctors I could find in Rochester, numbering nine in all, and they took my money until I* was broke, and then told me to go to the country, as it might help me, and did me absolutely no good; some did me harm. Yours respectfully,

H. J. STURDEVANT,

Common Symptoms

Of Kidney Disease.

Many physicians say that neglected kidney trouble is responsible for more deaths than any other disease.

Do you know whether you are inclined to, or have kidney disease ?

Have you ever tried the simple test of setting aside your urine in a bottle or vessel for twenty-four hours ?

tt^3 A heavy sediment or settling in the urine usually indicates a diseased condition.

The general effects produced in the sys- tem by kidney disease are the following:

Albumen in the water ; parts of the sub- stance of the kidneys, called tube casts, are passed off.

An unusual flow of urine, especially at night, or a scanty supply.

In the former case the water being very light colored, in the latter, thick and heavy and frequently abounding with brick-dust substance.

The urine may look red or blood-like, stringy or milky.

There is often twitching of the eyelids, specks float before the eyes.

As the disease progresses there will be an ache in the small of the back.

Nausea of the stomach.

Swelling of the feet and ankles, with dropsical disposition.

Irritation of the bladder with frequent desire to urinate.

Nervousness, sleeplessness, irritability.

Weakened heart action, with poor circula- tion of the blood.

Sometimes the stomach gives out with dyspepsia and indigestion.

Flatulency, colic and headache.

Dry or unpleasant taste in the mouth, especially in the morning.

Constipation ; the liver easily becomes deranged with people disposed to liver trouble, and biliousness is frequent.

Often the excess of uric acid in the blood, which the kidneys have not removed because of their diseased condition, produces a rheu- matic state of the system, with neuralgia and sciatica.

However, not all of the symptoms and conditions mentioned are likely to be present in any one case.

The benefits to so many people resulting from the use of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, stamps it as a most successful medicine for all diseases of the kidneys, liver and bladder.

If your heart is acting badly, have you ever thought that it may be due to kidney trouble, as is often the case ? It would be well to find cut. Set urine aside for twenty- four hours ; a heavy sediment or settling is usually evidence of kidney trouble. If your heart trouble is due to kidney trouble, Swamp- Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder rem- edy, will be found most excellent. If you need a medicine, you should have the best.

LETTER FROM R0SEB0R0, N. C.

ROSEBOP-O, N. C.

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

Gentlemen : — About five years ago I wrote to you that 1 had been a terrible sufferer from kidney and bladder troubles, and that my physician inform- ed me that my left kidney was in such condition that there was no hope for my recovery. -I was advised to try your Swamp-Root as a last resort, and after taking four fifty-cent size bottles, I passed a gravel stone which weighed ten grains. I after- wards forwarded you this gravel stone. Have had no return of any trouble since that time and can- not say too much in favor of your wonderful prep- aration, Swamp-Root, which cures after physicians fail. Very truly yours,

Route 3, Box 30. F. H. HORNE.

Personally appeared before me, this 31st day of July, F. H. Home, who subscribed the above state- ment and made oath that the same is true in sub- stance and in fact.

LETTER FROM LITTLETON, NEW HAMPSHIRE

Littleton, N. H., October 8th, 1C14.

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

Gentlemen: — For over one year I was very bad off with Kidney and Bladder trouble. Three physi- cians failed to relieve me. For about five months I could hardly do any work. But after taking a few bottles of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, I felt as well as ever and am doing my regular work now, which is horse-shoeing. I take great pleasure in recommending Swamp-Root to my friends.

Yours very truly,

W. H. QUIMBY.

YOUR KIDNEYS ARE WEAK !

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid Troubles Make People Miserable.

Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the Great Kidney and Bladder Remedy, Brings Happiness To Thousands.

STONE IN THE BLADDER.

The cut below is taken from a photograph, and represents some of the specimens of gravel or stone passed from the bladder while taking Dr.

(3 Ounces and 27 Grains of Dissolved Stone or Gravel.)

Kilmer's Swamp-Root.

The following is a verbatim copy of a letter sent to Dr. Kilmer & Co., together with the gravel or dis- solved stone as shown above. Mr. Bowersmith says :

' ' I doubt if there is a person living who can rec- ommend your Swamp-Root more highly than myself. I had been a great sufferer from stone in the bladder, inflammation of the bladder, and kidney complaint, and was under the care of different phy- sicians for nearly two years. I tried every doctor

in our town and used other mcuicine, but continued to suffer and decline until 1 was a physical wreck. The most learned physicians made examinations and pronounced my case stone in the bladder (gravel), and said I never would be any better until it was removed by a surgical operation.

" I had been passing blood and mucus for some months, and the pain in my bladder and over my kidneys was something awful. Every one felt sad. I, myself, gave up, as an operation seemed to us certain death.

" 1 shall never forget how timely thagood news of your Swamp-Root reached me. After taking it for about two weeks I passed little stones nearly every day, until the number was over one hundred. 1 continued with the Swamp-Root and the change in my condition v/as most wonderful. I send you by this mail a bottle of the stone or gravel that was dissolved and expelled. It must have been as large as a good-sized goose egg.

" 1 am now in excellent health, as my photograph will show. Have done a hard summer's work, and feel as well as. I ever did."

LABOURN BOWERSMITH,

Marysville, Ohio.

Newt. E. Liggett, druggist, of Marysville, Ohio, says : " I soid Mr. Bowersmith the Swamp-Root that saved his life. The grave', was on exhibition at my store."

LETTER FROM WATERTOWN, N. Y.

Water-town, N. Y. Dr. Kilmer & Co,, Binghamton, N. V.

Gentlemen : — A short time ago 1 had what is termed inflammation of the neck of the bladder. At times I thought I would surely go wild. I tried the doctor but he did not seem to hit my case. Was advised to try Swamp-Root by a Druggist. I took his advice and began taking Swamp-Root ; and after using it a short time, began to get better, and continued using it until my trouble was gone, and Swamp-Root cured me. You can use this if you wish in any way that will benefit others. My trade is that of a painter. My age is 49.

Yours very truly,

J. H. JOHNSTON.

Personally appeared before me this 28th day of July, 1909, J. H. Johnston, who subscribed the above statement and made' oath that the same is true in substance and in fact.

W. A. Nims, Notary Public.

Boil your drinking water and set aside to cool, and to drink plenty of it will be found helpful in case of kidney or bladder trouble.

LETTER FROM STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, X. Y. Stockton, California.

Gentlemen: — Some time ago I was taken with a dreadful pain in my back; could hardly get out of my chair, but managed to get hold of a sample bottle of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root that had come a few days previous. The sample had such a good effect, that I purchased a dollar bottle and it cured the p;un in my back entirely. Since then I have taken Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root for Blood in the Urine, which it has cured. I am 74 years of age and do all of my house-work, thanks to Swamp-Root.

Very truly yours, MRS. C. M. COLE.

Personally appeared before me this 19th day of August, 1914, Mrs. C. M. Cole, who subscribed to the above statement and made oath that ihe same is true in substance Ad in fact.

Grippe or Malaria

Weakens Your Kidneys,

Bad After Effects;

How to Get Strength.

Statistics prove that one of the great dan- gers of the grip or malaria is its bad after effects and weakening influence on the kid- neys and urinary organs.

After an attack of grip or malaria, what your kidneys need is a healing tonic influ- ence that will strengthen and soothe their irritability and gently regulate them.

The healing medicine for such conditions is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root the Great Kidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy.

No Disease More Deceptive,

The well- worn saying that "Delays are Dangerous," probably applies more to kidney and bladder disease than to anything else. Disease of the kidneys will stand no trifling, because there is no disease more deceptive and none more dangerous if neglected.

For a moment look backward and recall to memory the many who are now suffering, and the others who have died during the past year. Have you ever stopped to» think how many of them could have been made well

and happy just by the use cf knowledge rightly applied?

How many of your departed friends have died from kidney and bladder trouble or Bright's Disease ? How ma. y of your living ones will die from the same rause? Health statistics prove an alarming i lcrease in there diseases. Then, doesn't it behoove ycu to leach out quickly for a helping hand when in danger? You may very easily do this by using Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.

We say this because of the many men and women who are writing us letters of heartfe't gratitude in praiie and recommend- aticn of the remedy which has proved a friend in need.

In conclusion, if ycu feel t'lat Swamp-Root is what you need, do not delay nor neglect its use — kidney trouble is always serious.

LETTER FROM AUBURN, NEBRASKA

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Aueurn, Nebraska.

Gentlemen: — I ^ave been using your Swamp-Root and find it is a very good medicine. I had trouble about the Kidneys for fourteen years and suffered considerably with pains in back, and had dizzy spells, and eyes wera swollen; my worst trouble being loss of sleep at night. After using one dozen bottles of Swamp-Root I feel much better and am not bothered with wanting to urinate, and do not have to get cut at night at al!. I should be pleased to answer any correspondence there is any reason in at all. You are at liberty to publish this for the benefit of others. Yours very truly,

Overwork Makes

Weak Kidneys.

Weak and Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.

To Strengthen Your Weak Kidneys and Purify Your Blood, Take SWAMP-ROOT.

The kidneys are very important organs, because they filter and purify the blood.

All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes.

The kidneys strain or filter out the impur- ities in the blood — that is their work.

When your blood is impure, nothing can purify it like your kidneys.

Purifying your blood is not a question of taking a laxative or physic.

Does your blood run through your bowels ?

Expecting your bowels to do kidney work is like flying in the face of nature. It is all right to cleanse them sometimes, for they may contain poisons likely to get into the blood, but, once there, nothing will take these poisons out again unless the kidneys do their work.

That is why bowel-cleansers fail to do their work — they forget the kidneys.

When you are sick, then, no matter what you think is the name of your disease, always remember that your kidneys need help.

In taking Swamp- Root you afford natural help to nature, for Swamp- Root is a most excellent healer and gentle aid to the kidneys.

LETTER FROM BARBERTON, OHIO.

657 Newell St.. Barberton, Ohio. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

Dear Sirs : — I was afflicted with Bladder trouble

and could not pass a drop of urine. I suffered with such great pain that the doctor had to take my urine. He furnished me with a tube that 1 Was obliged to use every four hoifrs or I could not stand the pain. After the doctor had treated me two weeks, I did not get any better. Remember- ing that a few doses of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root completely relieved my mother-in-law, I asked my husband to get me a bottle of Swamp-Root, which he did \ a- d I took it and threw the doctor's prepara- tions away, because the second day after I started taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root I was greatly relieved. My husband was so pleased, he said I should take one dczen bottles of Swamp-Root, but by the time 1 had taken seven bottles, I was com- pletely restored to health. That was six years ago

and I have not taken any medicine since. My weight is 195 pounds; have three children; do my own work in a house of twelve rooms, and keep boarders. Dr. Kilmer & Co., if you wish to pub- lish this recommendation, you have my full per- mission to do so, for I am telling the truth. I can- not praise Swamp-Root enough for what it has done for me. Very truly yours,

MRS. ANNIE BAUGHMAN. Personally appeared before me this 19th day of December, 1914, Mrs. Annie Baugh man. who sub- scribed the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact.

LETTER FROM MAXTON, NORTH CAROLINA

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Maxton, North Carolina.

Gentlemen: — I seriously doubt if there is a person living who can recommend Swamp-Root more highly than I, as I was a constant sufferer for more than twenty years, and the doctors pronounced it Kidney trouble. Before using it I weighed only 118 pounds, and after using one bottle, and seeing such good effects, I continued until I had taken five bottles, which entirely restored me to health, weighing 160 pounds. I have not been sick a day since I took Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and can truthfully recom- mend Swamp-Root to suffering women. Sincerely yours,

MRS. A. R. THROWER.

Personally appeared before me this 30th day cf June, 1914, Mrs. A. R. Thrower, who subscribed to the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact.

T. O. Evans, Notary •Public.

Do You Get Up

With a Lame Back?

Kidney, I/iver and Bladder Troubles Make Men and Women Miserable.

WHO IS TO BI,AME?

A majority of the ills afflicting people to- day can be traced to kidney trouble. It per- vades all classes of society, in all climates, regardless of age, sex or condition.

Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kidneys.

If the child urinates too often, if the ur\ a scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, and is yet afflicted with bed-wet- ting, the probable cause of the difficulty is kidney, or bladder trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is probably due to a weakened condition of the kidneys and bladder, and not always tc a habit, as most people suppose.

HOW TO FIND OUT THE CAUSE OF OUR SICKNESS.

There comes a time to both men and wo- men when poor health and sickness bring anxiety and trouble hard to bear ; disappoint- ment follows every effort of physicians, and remedies have little or no effect. In many

such cases serious mistakes arc mad:. In doc- toring and in not knowing what the disease is or what makes us sick.

Kind nature warns us by certain symptoms which are unmistakable evidence »of da/.ger, such as too frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply, scalding irritation, pain cr du ' ache in the back — ail of these tell us in silenco that our kidneys need doctoring. If neg'ectec ,'xw; the disease advances until the face looks pa's or sallow, puffy or c'ark circles under the eyes, feet swell and sometimes the heart sets bad y. By these condition:., which are plUn to >e seen, nature tells is again tnat oi.r kidney trouble is growing worse and ih^t we are on dangerous ground.

LETTER FROM BROC'KLY H. N. Y.

Brooklyn , New, ' ork. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

Gentlemen : — I have been troubled with r.iy Kid- neys for many years. One cay I could hardly move, and some one told me to get Swamp-Root, which I did, and in a few days I v.\.s r'J r jjl.t.

About seven years ago, I was in such a c ndi ion that my children had to lift me oui of oed 1 wanted Swamp-Root, bui they got a coctoi, J sent for Swamp-Root ani didn't *«*ke the; doci-.r'a medicine. Swamp-Rooi did the vork. Sy&niM Root is the remedy if my Kidneys are e\er oat of order again. Yours very truly,

A. KIRCH. -iO.7, 132 Wyckoff Ave.

Even Children suffer from kidney and bladder troubles.

LETTER FROM LAKEWOOD, OHIO

Dr. Kilmsr & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Lakewood, Ohio, March 6th, 1915.

Gentlemen: — It is with great pleasure that I write these few lines of praise for your wonderful Kidney and Lladi r: remedy. I had Kidney trouble so bad that I became very much alarmed. I had tried various pdney remedies I heard cf but without relief. I was about discouraged of ever being helped, when one day I picked up a book containing testimonials of people who had been helped and cured of their Kidney trouble by the use of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root; so I decided to try it, and I know I owe my present good health to the wonderful curative power of Swamp-Root. I sincerely hope that my words will be the means of rssicrias many other sufferers of Kidney and Bladder trouble to good health.

Yours very truly,

B. J. FENSTERMAKER.

DR. KILMER'S

U & O ANOINTMENT.

A Soothing and Healing Application for

PILES, HEMORRHOIDS AND FISSURES,

It does not irritate and MAKE THE DISEASE WORSE. THE FIRST application seldom fails to give the patient immediate

• relief, comfort and rest. PILES, if allowed to continue, very often develop into Fistula, a

most serious trouble.

How to Apply U & O Anointment.

In all ordinary cases the application of U 8z O Anointment may be made with the end of finger, sponge or linen cloth.

If the disease has become deep-seated, with much soreness, pain, tenderness and up out of reach of finger, the Pile Pipe should be used.

If the patient suffers during evacuation of the bowels,' application with the Pile Pipe should be made before and after the bowels move.

O^p^ In all cases, application of Dr. Kilmer's U & O Anointment may be made as often as the case would seem to require — one, two, three or four times a day. It is a vegetable product, and contains no opiates..

How to Get the Pile Pipe — The Dr. Kilmer & Co. Pile Pipe can be obtained at druggists, or we will send it by mail upon receipt of fifty cents in postage stamps. We have received thousands of letters from people who have used the Pile Pipe with the most pleasing satisfaction. In bad cases the Pile Pipe will place our U & O Anoint- ment just where it is needed to heal the sorest parts. The price is within reach of all.

DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE PILE PIPE.

The patient can use it in a simple and cleanly manner without pain, inconvenience or soiling the linen. It is so compact that it can be carried in the pocket filled with Dr. Kilmer's U & 0 Anoint- ment, ready for use.

Remove the screw plunger from the ointment barrel, then place a sufficient quantity of ointment in the barrel for several applications ; replace the plunger, turning it sufficiently to force the ointment into the small perforated end of the pipe; when thus prepared, insert the tube of pipe within the rec- tum, turn the plunger two or three revolutions (having a milled head that it may be done easily), thereby forcing the ointment through the perforation of the pipe ; turn the pipe around once or twiGe, making a more effectual distribution of the ointment to the parts afflicted ; then withdraw the pipe, when it will be found that the contraction of the muscles has effectually removed and distributed all the ointment from the surface of the tube, retaining it where it has been deposited, the application being exceedingly simple and free from all irritation and pain.

Two or three applications daily will be found quite sufficient for the desired effect.

Should the disease be of long standing, and perhaps chronic, the use of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root is advised to rid the blood of impurities, mucus (matter), irritating acids, etc., which often results in removing from the system the causing conditions that bring on the piles.

An easy way to heal the piles.

LETTER FROM HUBBARD, TEXAS

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Hubbard, Texas.

Gentlemen: — Several years ago I had severe pain in my back and sides. Could not breathe without difficulty, and was nearly wild with the desire to urinate. Was compelled to do so every ten minutes with the passage of blood with the urine. I tried all the different doctors. Was at the end of my rope and was so miserable with pain and the thought that I must die, when one day a friend told me of the wonderful help she had received from Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. After taking several bottles, I am now able to work every day. Yours very truly,

U <& O

This family anointment is very highly medicated. It does not scatter or blister. Applied over -the spot where inside or outside sore .oss or pain exists, a change is soon felt.

The U & O Anc Lment has a soothing and healing influent in inflammatory conditions. It is not a narcotic which banishes pain by produc- ing another irritation or inflammation or by be- numbing the parts to which it is applied. Piles — Apply inside and outside to the parts when suffering from hemorrhoids or piles, bleeding piles, or itching piles, or blind piles, or outward piles.

Kidney Pains — Apply outside when suffering

from kidney pains, or lame back. Lung Soreness — Apply outside when suffering from colds, coughs, soreness or tightness across the chest, or between the shoulder blades. Cuts and Burns — When injured by cut, burn or scratch, apply freely and bandage with cloth. Repeat the application every two or three days. Skin Troubles — Apply outside if you are tormen- ted with troublesome eruptions or irritation due to local causes, dry scaly eczema or salt-rheum.

Ladies— Will find this Anointment a valuable and soothing preparation when applied to inflamed parts where there is annoying and painful irri- tation.

Backache — Apply outside if you are suffering

from tormenting backache, or spineache, or hipache.

Catarrh— If you have catarrh with sores, ulcers, excessive dryness, or offensive discharge from the nose, or dropping in the throat, apply up in the nose and rub over the nose and forehead. A few applications may convince you of its merits.

Chafing — Apply to varicose veins, bruises, cuts, sprains, stings, chafing, burns, frost bites, chapped hands.

Throat — Apply outside ears for earache, about the forehead and eyelids for scrofula, sore eyes, around the throat for croup, or cough.

Swelling — Apply outside when suffering from

swellings resulting from sprains, bruises or injuries.

Beware of Fraud — The carton of Dr. Kilmer's U & O Anointment bears his likeness. The name and address are blown in the bottle.

At Druggists ; Two Sizes, 25 and 50 cts.

LETTER FROM MOBILE, ALABAMA

Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Mobile, Alabama, Jan. 7th, 1915.

Gentlemen: — Several years ago I had charge of a plantation in the canebrake swamps on the lower Mississippi River. While there I contracted a severe case of Swamp Fever, getting so bad that I had hemorrhages of the bladder. I was under a doctor's care for about sixty days with very little hope of my recovery. I did not find relief from the doctor's medicine and Swamp-Root being recommended to me, I tried same and got almost immediate relief. After taking seven fifty-cent bottles, I was able to'resume my duties. Have not been obliged to take any medicine since that time. You have my permission to publish. Yours very truly, A. J. TRACEY.

Personally appeared before me this 7th day of January, 1915, A. J. Tracey, who subscribed the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact.

Respectfully Submitted,

Brief Points cf Business Law.

Ignorance of the law excuses no one. The act of one partner binds all ths others. A contract made on a Sunday is void. A principal is liable for the acts of his agents. An agent is liable to his principal for errors. A receipt for money paid is not legally conclusive A signature made with a lead pencil is good in law.

An agreement without consideration, expressed or implied, is void.

A contract made with a minor cannot be enforced. A note made with a minor is voidable.

Each partner is liable for the whole amount of the debts of his firm.

A partial payment of an outlawed debt revives the obligation.

Notes obtained by fraud, or made by an intoxi- cated person, are not collectible.

If no time of payment is specified in a note it is payable on demand.

A note which does not state upon its face that it bears interest will bear interest after maturity.

Not for Everything,— Swamp-Root is not recommended for every;. iing, but if you have kidney, liver, bladder or uric acid trouble, it may be found just the medicine you need.

LETTER FROM BOO VHJLE, MISSOURI

Dr. Kilmer & Co.,.Binghamton, N. Y. Boonville, Missouri.

Gentlemen : — A few years ago I had what the doctors called Kidney disease ; my back was sore and ached all the time. I spent lots of money doctoring with doctors and taking patent medicines. Had dizzy spells, stomach was out of order, urine was highly colored, and could not sleep. I firmly believe that, if I had not heard of your Swamp-Root, I would have died. I took about six bottles of Swamp-Root and it straightened me up, and I feel like a new man. Can recommend it to anyone. You are at liberty to publish this.

Yours very truly, T. M. GRAY, 517 South Main St.

Personally appeared before me this 2Sth day of February. 1914, T. M. Gray, who subscribed to the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact.

Pursuant to your request I have purchased in the open market several samples of the product sold under the name of "Swamp Root".

In these samples I have been unable to detect any mineral poison, poisonous vegetable principles or poisonous synthetic drug.

The small amount of alcohol present seems to be necessary for maintaining the extractives in solution

itted,

Swamp-Root brines sunshine and gladness in ever* Jome it enters.

Help in Case of Accidents.

Drowning. 1 . Loosen clothing, if any. 2. Empty lungs of water by laying body on its stomach, and lifting it by the middle so that the head hangs down. Jerk the body a few times. 3. Pull tqngue forward, using handkerchief, or pin with string, if necessary. 4. Imitate motion of respiration by alternately compressing and expand- ing the lower ribs, about twenty times a minute. Alternately raising andlowering the arms from thesidea up abovethe head will stimulate the action of the lungs. Let it be done gently but persistently. 5. Apply warmth and friction to extremities. 6. By holding tongue forward, closing the nostrils, and pressing the "Adams apple" (so as to close entrance to stomach), direct inflation may be tried. Take a deep breath and breathe t forcibly into the mouth of patient, com- press the chest to expel the air and repeat the operation. 7. DON'T GIVE UP! People have been saved after hours of patient, vigorous effort. 8. When breathing begins, get patient into a warm bed, give warm drinks, or spirits in teaspoonfuls, fresh air and quiet.

Burns and Scalds. Cover with cooking soda and lay wet cloths overit. Whites of eggs and olive oiL Olive oil or lirseed oil, plain, or mixed with chalk or whiting. Sweet or olive oii and limewater.

Sunstroke. Loosen clothing. Get patient into shade and apply Ice-cold water to head. Keep head in elevated position.

Mad Dog or Snake Bite. Tie cord tieht above wound. Suck wound and cauterize with caustic or white-hot iron at once, or cut out adjoin- ing parts with a sharp knife. Give stimulants— whiskey, brandy, etc.

Lightning. Dash cold water over a person struck.

Stings of Venomous Insects, etc. Apply weak ammonia, oil, salt water or iodine.

Fainting. Place flat on back; allow fresh air, and sprinkle with water. Place head lower than rest of body.

Tests of Death. Hold mirror to mouth. If living, moisture will gather. Push pin into flesh. If dead the hole will remain, if alive it will close up. Place fingers in front of a strong light . If alive they will appear red; if dead, black or dark. If a person is dead decomposition i s almost sure to set in after 72 hours have elapsed. If it does not. then there is room for investigation by physician. Do not permit burial of dead until some certain indication of death is apparent.

Cinders in the Eye. Roll soft paper up like a lamplighter, wet tip to remove, or use medicine dropper to draw it out. Rub the other eye.

Fire in One's Clothing. Don't run— especially not downstairs or out-of-doors. Roll on carpet, or wrap in woolen rug or blanket. Keep the head down, so as not to inhale flame.

Fire from Kerosene. Don't use water, it will spread the flames. Dirt, sand, or flour is the best extinguisher, or smother with woolen rug, table-cloth, or carpet.

Suffocation from Inhaling Illuminating Gas. Get into the fresh air as soon as possible and lie down. Keep warm. Take ammonia— 20 drops to n tumbler of water, at frequent intervals: also 2 to 4 droj s tincture of mix vomica every hour or two for five or six hours.

Vitality of I,ast Children.

The old belief still common among the laity, that first-born children are endowed by nature with greater vitality and longevity than last-born, has induced Dr. Alfred Ploetz of Munich, Germany, to make an exhaustive study to ascertain if this were true. He compiled the returns from a very large number of families of the nobility, and his figures show, generally speaking, that the vitality of first to ninth-born children varied very little, but that from the tenth to the nineteenth-born the mortality was markedly greater. Dr. Ploetz's figures published in the "Archi v fuer Rassen und Gesellschafts-Biologie," appeared in a recent issue of the Journal of Heredity of the American Genetic Association.

In the following table Dr. Ploetz has made groupings of first-born children, second-born, and so on, and it was his object to find out how many of these died before the fifth year. Order of birth, number of children, and per cent, died, as follows:

Fifth-born 311

Sixth-born 249

Seventh to ninth- born 463

First-born 614

Second-born 539

Third-born 455

Comment se rendre compte.

Rcmplissez tine bouteille on tm vcrrc ordinaire d'urine que vous laisscz reposcr pendant vingt-quatre heures; tin sediment ou depot indique generalement que les reins sont cn mauvais etat. Un desir trop frequent d'uriner, tine evacuation incomplete, une douleur ou pesanteur dans le dos, sont une preuve que les reins ont besoin d'attention.

Que faire.

II existe un soulagement dans la connaissance si souvent exprimee, que le grand remede pour les reins, le Swamp-Root du Dr. Kilmer, comble presque tous les desirs en calmant les douleurs dans le dos, les reins, le foie, la vessie et toutes les parties du canal urinaire. II calme l'incontinence d'urine, la douleur cuisante que cause son passage, les mauvais effets qui resultent de l'absorption de liqueurs, de vin ou de la biere et met fin a la necessite desagreable de se lever plnsieurs fois pendant la nuit pour uriner. L'effet adoucissant, agreable et extra- ordinaire du Svamp-Root se manifeste rapide- meht. Ce remede se tient en tete de tous les atitres par ses merveilleux resultats dans les cas les plus douloureux. Si vous avez besoin (fun medicament, vous devez vous procurer le meilleur.

Les instructions se trouvent dans la brochure

qui accompagne chaque bouteille.

DE COMO SE AVERIGU A.

Dcseos de orinar demasiado frccuentcs, orines escasos y dolor sordo en la espalda, son tambien indicios de que los rinones necesitan atencion.

LO QUE SE DEBE HACER.

Sirve de consuelo el saber lo que se ha dicho tantas veces, 6 sea que el "Swamp-Root" del Dr. Kilmer, el gran remedio para los rinones, es eficaz^para el alivio de dolores/en la espalda, en los rincuies, cn el higado, en la vcjiga y en todo el canal urinario. Remedia la inhabilidad de retener los orines as'i como el escOzor que se sicnte al orinar, y el mal efecto debido a libaciones alcohol icas, vino y ccrvef;!, vence la dcsagradablc neccsidad de tencr que tevantarse, varias veces durante la noche para orinar. El suave y agradable efecto del "Swamp-Root" se deja scntir muy pronto.' < )> :pa el mas .alto lugar por sus maravillosos u-ultados cn los casos mas desecperantes.
