THE KIDNEY
COMPLEXION.
The pale, sallow, sunken-cheeked,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com-
- plexion.”.
Their kidneys are turning to a
parsnip color. So is their complexion.
They may also have indigestion, or
suffer 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
up and strengthen their weak and dis-
eased kidneys, purify their diseased,
kidney-poisoned blood, clear their com-
plexion and soon they will enjoy better
health. ,
You can get the regular sizes at the
drugstore, at fifty cents and one dol-
lar,‘or you may. first prove for yourself
the wonderfulvirtues of this'great dis-
covery, Swamp-Root, by sending your
,. address to Dr. Kilmer 6; 00., Bingham-
