Almost everybody who reads the news-
papers is sure to know of the wonderful
~ ~1~ cures made by Dr.
[ Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
I[ the great kidney, liv~
and bladder remedy.
z~_ It is the great medi- cal triumph of the nine-
~ teenth century; dis-
I]]]l covered after years of
~ scientific research by
~tDr. Kilmer, the emto
" sent kidney and blad-
der specialist, and ts
wonderfully successful in promptly curing
lame back, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou-
bles and Brlght's Disease, whteh Is the worst
form of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp=Root Is not rec-
ommended for everything but if you have kid-
ney, liver or bladder trouble it will be found
just the remedy you need. It has been tested
in so many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to pur-
chase relief and has proved so successful in
every case that a special arrangement hes
been made by which all readers of this paper
who have not already tried it, may have a
sample bottle sent free by mail, also a booh
telling more about Swamp-Root and how to
find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.

Spells when thousands have proved that
Electric Bitters will quickly cure such
troubles. "I suffered for years with kid-
ney trouble," writes Mrs. Phebe Cherley,
of Peterson, la., "and a lame back pained
me so I could not dress myself, but
Electric Bitters wholly cured me, and
although 73 years old, I now am able to
do all my housework." It overcomes

Last year it issued orders to all employee
that the grounds and buildings adjacent
to the company's right of way must pre-
sent a neat and attractive appearance.
The company's gardener gave his espec-
ial attention to beautifying the suburban
statmns for forty miles out of Chicago.
Before last summer closed, switch shan-
ties, tool houses~ yard offices and round
houses had been prettily covered w~th
ruunmg vices and the grounds about
each building converted into fine lawns
over which shrubbery had been planted.
During the coining spring and summer
this work will be greatly extended, and
in time the Burlington expects to have
the most ornamental station grounds in

Persons who suffer from indigestion can
not expect to hve long, because they can
not eat the food reqmred to nourish the
body arid the products of the undigested
foods they do eat poison the blood• It is

possible, and the best method of doing
this is to use the preparation known ae
