How to Counteract 1t.
One OF the great scourgcs OF the present
year in all parts of America has been malaria.
This is a trouble so treacherous in its nature
and so dangerous in its results as to Justly
cause apprehe nsion wherever it has appeared.
But there are so many erroneous ideas upon
the subject that few ords are in order at a
time when people are subject to malarial in-
1uences.
Malaria, which means simply bad air. is the
common name Of a class OF diseases which
arise from spores of dccaying vegetable mat
ter, thrown off from stagnant pools or tiles of
vegetation undergoing decomposition. These
spores when inhaIed with the breath or taken
into the system with water soon enter the
blood and terminating there find a loothuld,
whereby the whole system Is n.sJned and the
various functions dis lrdered. When the
germ theory of disease was first advanced it
was supposed that these spores we've of AMI
NAL nature, and like the bLCte ia IL dir hitler a
were propagated in tue hood. tut they are
now conceived to be of We .etablC origin, like
the fungi found on decaying wood or in eel
lars. The source of this state of the air is
generally swamps or stagnant pools, which,
partially dried by the hot sun, send forth va
pOrs .OAGed with this malarial poison. These
vapors descend to the earth in the night
cooled by the loss OF temperature, and brcdtued
by sleepers are readily inhaled Hence per-
sons living near stagnant poo.s or marshes are
liable to he afflicted with chills and fever, and
such localities are never healthy though they
are more so when the streams flowing into
them are pure, and also when the water is
high Again the drainage of houses, sltugh-
| ter-houses, barns, etc, are ferti C source of
malaria. One will often notice in coming
into the neighborhood of one of these slu ggiSh
streams that pass through almost every village
a most yilainous smell caused by the often
sive refuse which communicates its bad odor
to the atmosphere, especially on hot days
| This absorbed into the system by the lungs or
taken in through water, which also abs orbs it
from the air, poisons the blood and deranges
the whole system This poison is also devel-
| opcd in force in wells and springs when they
| become low, and the result of drinking these
| is the same as breathing the poisonous air.
In time of drouth the great quantity of
| vegetation that dries up in the meadows,
stubble fields and pastures, the corn feds and
| forest leaves produces the same effuvia On
the praries when large tracts of prairie ground
are turned over, the decaying vegetation is
| widespread cause of malaria.
| The evils which follow malarial poisoning
are almost infinite. Disease of n malignant
and dangerous nature, accompanied by symp-
| toms the most distressing are certain to mani
fest themselves and life is burden so long as
| this poison remains in the system. The midi
cations of malarial poisoning are loss of appe-
lite, shortness of breath, pains about the
| heart, wasting of flesh and strength, despond-
ency, nervousness, chilly sensations, unac-
countable lassitude, dull pains in various
parts of the body, headaches, dizziness,
coated tongue and dry mouth, night sweats,
muscular debility, putting under the eyes, an
| unusual color ordor or sediment about the
fluids passed from the system, etc. Any one
! OF the above symptoms may be an indication
of malarial poison in the body which necessi-
tates immediate and careful attention.
But If malarial poison could not find u lod &c
| ment in the human body it would be just as
harmless as the oxygen of the air. The great
difficulty is that, after being absorbed into
the system, 1t produces Instructions in the
stomach and lungs, clogs the circulation OF
| the blood, affects the kidneys liver and other
organs, and brings on diseases Of most dam
| gerous character. There is only one known
| way by which these diseases may be avoided
| or cured after they have once made their APP
| pearance, 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 Ierfect
condition was ever afflicted BY malarial poi
| son. And when these organs are disordered,
| they not only permit, but invite, these dis
eases to make their inroads into the body. 1t
! is now admitted by physicians, scientists 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 kee1s the kidneys and liver in constant
| health and hence prevents milarial sickness
| This remedy is Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver
! Cure, the most popular medicine before the
| American people ana SOLD by every druggist
in the land. 1t fully counteracs the evil
effect of malarial poison in the system, and
not only banshes it, but restores the members
which that poison has weakened. How well it
does this be learned from the following:
KANSAS CITY, No, June 26, 1SS2.-Moving
| from the State of New York to the Western
country, | was attaclle with malaria and gem
eral debility. / had lost all appetite and was
hardly able to move about | had tried n
! great many remedies, but nothing bettered
my condition until | began using Warmers
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, which seemed to
help me right away aud | feel rs well as ever
have in my life. 1t is blessing to people in
| this malarous country. G. f. WILLIAM,
14l2 Grand Ave, OF William d Co., Hardware.
This great remedy has proven its power in
! innumerable cases and is to-day more extern.
! sively used in malarial districts, whether in
cities or in the country, than any or all other
remedies for the cure of the same class of dis
ease. No one can afford to triile with the first
! symptoms Of malaria, hut instant care should
be taken to check it on the start before it's
evil influences overshadow the life.
ARE you not alarmed at your children

| you are not looking on" said one Austin
| lady to another whom she was visiting.
