PHYSICAL WRECK RESTORED TO HEALTH BY GREAT KID NEY REMEDY . I feel It my duty to furnish you with my testimonial as to what your remedy Swamp-Root did for me when I was a physical wreck from kidney and blad der trouble. Some years ago I was not able to do any work and could only Just creep around and am satisfied that had It not been for Dr.-Kilmer's Swamp-Root I would not have lived. After using the preparation for one month I was able to work some and when I had used 8.00 worth of Swamp-Root I could do a good day's work. I used about 110.00 worth altogether and would not take $10,000 for the good that it did me. I consider it a God-send to suffering humanity for the diseases for which you recommend it and have recom mended It to many sufferers. N. L. HVGGINS. Welch. Ark.
