THE KIDNEY CDMPLEXION.
The pale, sallow, sunken-checked,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with“‘l{idney Com;
plexion.”
Their kidneys are turning to a
parsnip color. So is their complexion.
They may also have indigestion, or
sufier from sleeplessness, rheumatism,
neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous ex-
haustion and sometimes the heart
acts badly.
The cause is weak, unhealthy kid-
neys. ~
_Usually the sufferer from kidney
disease does not find out what the
trouble is until it. is almost too late,
because the first symptoms are so like
mild sickness that they do not think
they need a medicine or a doctor until
they find themselves sick in bed.
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root will build
11p and strengthen their weak and dis-
eased kidneys, purify their diseased,
gignPY-poigoned blood, clear their com-
