' , A physician would, ask if you had rheumatism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over the hipstomach trouble, desire ito urinate often, or a burning or scalding in passing it; if after passing there is an unsatisfied feeling as if it must be at vrie repeated, or if the urine has a brick dust deposit or strong odor. When these symptoms are present, no time should be lost in - removing the cause. ; Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder, inflamatioh, causing stop page, and sometimes requiring the drawing off the urine with instruments, or may run into Bright's Disease, the most dangerous stage of kidney trou ble. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great discovery of the eminent kidney and bladder speciamt, is a positive remedy for such diseases. Its reputation is world-wide and it is bo easy to get at any drug store that no one need suffer any length of time for want of it. However, if you prefer to first test its wonderful merits, mention the Asheville Daily Gazette and write to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, Itf. Y., for a sam ple bottle and book telling all about it both sent absolutely free by mail. VAR 0US ITEMS. C.
