How IT WORKS ITS WAY INTO THE BODY AND
HOW To CorNrERACT 1T.
One of the great scour@cS Of the present
year III all parts of America has been malaria
This is Il trouble SO trcachcrous in lis nature
and so dangerous in its results us to Justly
cause apprehension wherever it has appeared
But there are so many erroneous ideas upon
the subject that Il few words are in order at Il
time when people are subject to maarial in
iluvnccS.
Malaria, which means simply bad air, is the
common name of Il class of diseases which
arise from spores of dccaying vegetable mat
ter, thrown oil from stagnant pools or piles
of vegetation undergoing decomposition.
These spores when inhaled with the breath or
taken INTO the system with water soon enter
the blood and terminating there find foot
hold, whereby the whole system is poisoned
and the various functions diaurdcrcd. When
the germ Theory of disease was first advanced
it was supposed that these spores were Of
animal nature, and like the bacteria in dIpli-
iberia were propagatcd in the blood, but they
are now conceived To be of vegetable origin,
like the fungi found on dccayinr wood or in
cellars. The source of this state Of the air is
generally swamps or staynant pools, which,
partially dried by the hot sun, send fufth
vapors loaded with this malarial poison
These NaporS descend to the earth i'll the
night, cooled by the loss of temperature, and
lrcathcd by slccpcrs are readily inhaled.
Hence persons living near staguant pools or
marshes are liable to be afflicted with chils and
fever, and such localities are ncVc: h, althy,
though they are more 81 when the streams
flowing into them are pur. and also when the
watcris high. Again the drainage of houses,
slaughter houses, barns, etc, are Il fertile
source OF malaria. One will often notice in
coming into the nci%hhurhoud of one Of these
sluggish streams that pass through almost
every village most vilainuus smell caused
10y the offensive refuse which communicates lis
bad odor IL the atmosphere, especially on hot
days. This absorbed into the system by the
lungs or taken in through water, which also
ahS"rhS 1t from the air, poiSOns the blood and
dc.In%c> the whole system. This poison is
also developed in force in wells and springs
when they become low, and the result Of
drinking these i the same Us breathing the
poisonous air. In Il time of droulh the great
quantity of vegetation that dries up in the
meadows, stuhht fields and pastures, the
corn fields and forest leaves produce the same
ciiiuHia On the prairics when large tracts
OF prairie ground are turned over, the decay
M vegetation Is widespread cause Of ma
lara.
The evils which follow malarial poisoning
are almost infinite Diseases of malignant
ana dangerous nature, accompanied hV symp-
toms the most distressing, are certain 10
manifest themselves and life is Il burden 50
long rs this poison remains in the system.
The indications IF malariai poisoning are loss
at appetite, shoriuCSS of breath, pains about
the heart, wasting of flesh and strength, de
Spondrncy, nervousness, chilly sensations,
| unaccountahlc lasSitude, dull pains in various
parts of the body, headaches, dizziness, Il
coated tongue and dry mouth, night swcats,
muscular debility, pulling under the eyes, an
unusual color, odur or sediment about the
fluids passed from the system, etc. Any one
OF the above symptoms may he an indication
OF nalarial poison in the body which necrs-
States immediate and careful attention.
But if malarial poison could not find II
Judgement in the human body, il would he
| Just as harmless rs the oxygen of the air.
The great difficulty is that, after being ah-
| sorbed into the system, il produces uhstruc-
tim, in HE stomach and lungr, clogs the
circulation of the blood, affects the kidneys,
| liver and other organs, and brings ON dis
eases of most dangerous character. There
| is only one known way 10y which these dis
| eases may be avoided or cured after they have
once made their appearance, and that is by
Keeping the great purifying organs of the body
| in perfect health. These organs are the kidneys
and liver. No one whose kidneys or liver are
| in perfect condition was ever afflicted by
malarial poison. And when these organs are
| disordcred, they not only permit, but invite,
these diseases 10 make their inroads into the
| body. 1t is now admitted by physicians, sci
entists and the majority of the general public
| that one medicine, and only one whose power
has been tested and proven, has absolute
control Of, and keeps the kidneys and liver
| in constant health and hence prevents mala-
rial sickness This remedy is Warmers Safe
| Kidney and Liver Cure, the most popular
medicine before the American people, and
sold by every druggist in the land. Ii fully
countcracts the evil effect of malarial poison
| in the system, and not only haniShcs il, but
restores the members which that poison has

learned from the following:
KANSAS CITY, Mo, June II, lSS1-Nioving
| from the State of New York To the western
country, ! was attacked with malaria and
general debility | had lost all appetite and
was hardly able To move about. had tried II
great many remedies, but nothing hcttcrcd
my condition until began using Warner :
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, which seemed
to help me right away, and feel rs we'll us |
ever have in my life. Ii is Il blessing To pco-
Pile in this malarious country.

This great remedy has proven its power in
innumcrablc eases, and is to-day more cx-
tensively used in malara districts, whether
in cities or in the country, than any or all
other remedies for the cure of the same class
of disease. No one can afford 10 triilc with
the first symptoms of malaria, but instant
care should he taken To check it on the start
before its evil influences ovcrshadaw the life.
