AN ATTACK OF GRIP
USUALLY LEAVES KIDNEYS
IN WEAKENED CONDITION
Doctors in all parts of the country bar
been kept busy with the epidemic of grip
which has visited so many homes. Tho
symptoms of grip this year are often very
distressing and leave the system in a run
down condition, particularly the kidneys
which seem to Buffer most, as almost every
victim complains of lame back and urin
nry troubles which should not bo neglect
ed, as these danger signals often lead to
dangerous kidney troubles. Druggists
report a large sale on Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root which so many people say
soon heals and strengthens the kidneys
after an attack of grip. Swamp-Root,
being an herbal compound, has a gentle
healing effect on the kidneys, which is al
most immediately noticed in most cases
by thoso who try it. Dr. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y., offer to send a sam
ple size bottle of Swamp-Root, on receipt
of ten cents, to every sufferer who re
quests it. A trial will convince anyone
who may be in need of it. Regular medi
