H is that so many products that are «*•
tensirely advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
lesson is plain—the article did not fulfill
* the promisee of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sella itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says “Take for
example Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
ana neve* hesitate to recommend, for in
almost e.ery case it shows excellent re-
sults, as many of my customers testify.
No oth» kidney remedy has so large a
sals.”
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
■sod the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulfills al-
■nt easy wish in overcoming kidney,
liver an«! bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary    and neutralises the urio
said wkioh causes rheumatism.

his rope and helped haul In his suffer-
ing brother, but leader of Team 2 was

time and again and each time missed
his goal.
