Know If. Many women suffer untold agony and misery because the nature of their dis- ease is not correctly understood. They have been led to believe that womb trouble or female weakness of some sort is responsible for the many ills that beset womankind. Neuralgia, nervousness, headache. puffy or dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism, a dragging pain or dull ache in the back, weakness or bearing, down sensation, profuse or scanty sup- ply of urine with strong odor, frequent desire to pass it ”with scalding or burn- ing sensation, sediment in it after standing in bottle or common glass for twenty-four hours, are signs of kidney and bladder trouble. The above symptoms are often at- tributed by the patient herself, , or by‘ her physician, to female weakness or womb trouble. Hence, so many fail to obtain relief, because they are treating not the disease itself, but a reflection of the primary cause, which is kidney trouble. ‘ . In fact. women as well as men are der trouble and both need the same remedy. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, is the great discovery of the eminent kidney and bladder specialist, and is easy to get at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar. .
