DEADLY DRINKING WAT En-.
A Universal Epids dsmic Caused. E2e
1t May be Avoided.

Typhoid fever RACES everywherel !
Wherever cities are dependent upoa
rivers or streams for their drinking
water, the fever RACES violently
Throughout the entire Southwest aid
Northwest the wells are low; the
water is of very poor quality and
here also the fever RACES.
The authorities of Albany, New
York, Chicago, Cincinnati, st. Loni,,
Philadelphia and other large cisi9s
are warning the people not to drink
the water without first boiling it to
kill the malarial and typhoid germs.
Surely winter of malaria and
typhoid will i'll prepare our people to
encounter a summer of cholera.
Cholera and typhoid and malarial
fevers can all be prevented hv
simple rules of life, and these rules
should be studied by every one.
These diseases are symptoms of a low
state of the system, produced by the
vitiated blood.
This blood is made impure because
of the impurities in the drinking
water, these impurities being deadly
poisons (which paralyze the nerve
action of the kidneys and liver. When
these blood purifying organs are
paralyZed, then the natural waste of
the body-the uric acid-accumulates
in the blood, and fever cannot be
prevented until this excess Of uric acid
has been removed.
The greatest necessity of everyday
life is pure water. Two-,hirds Of ones
body is made up of water. Ii the
water we drink is impure, then how
can we hope to escape diseased con-
ditions?
1t is impossible. The stomach,
liver and kidneys cannot purify pol
luted water.
Some cautious people resort to the
filter for purifying this water, but
even the filter does not remove this
poison, for water of the most deadly
character may pass through this filter
and become clear, yet the poison,
disguised, is there.
They who use filters know that
, they must become renewed at regular
periods, for even though they do not
take out all the impurity, they soon
become foul.
Now in like manner the human
kidneys act as filter for the blood,
and il they are filed up with inn
purities and become foul like the
filter, all the blood in the system
coursing through them becomes bad,
for it is now conceded fact that the
kidneys are the chief means whereby
the blood is purified. These organs
are filed with thousands of hairlike
tubs, which drain the impurities
from the blood, as the sewer pipes
drain impurities from our houses.
Ii a sewer pipe breaks under the
house, the sewage escapes into the
earth and fills the house with poison
Gus gas; SO if any of the thousand
and one little hairike sewer tubes
of the kidneys break down, the en-
tire body is affected by this awful
poison.
1t is a scientific fact that the kid
neys have few nerves OF sensation; ;
and, consequently, disease may exist
in these organs for a long time and not
be suspected by the individual. 1t is
impossible to filter or take the death
out of the blood when the least de-
rangement exists in these organs,
and if the blood is not filtered then
the uric acid or kidney poison, re-
movable only by Warmers safe cure,
accumulates in the system and at
tacks any organ, producing nine out
of ten ailments, just as sewer gas
and bad drainage produce SO many
fatal disorders.
Kidney disease may be known to
exist if there is any marked departure
from ordinary health without appar-
ent known cause, and it should be
understood by all that the greatest
peril exists and is intensified if there
is the least neglect to treat it promptly
with that great specific, Warmers safe
cure, remedy that has received the
highest recognition by scientific men.
who have thoroughly investigated
the character OF kidney derange-
ments.
The liver, when deranged, iname-
dia,ely announces the fact by sallow
skin, const;pated bowels, coated
tongue and headaches; but the kid
ney when diseased struggles on for
long time, and the fact of its disease
can only be discovered by the aid OF
the microscope or by the physician
who is skiltul enough to trace the
most indirect effects in the system to
the derangement vi these organs as
the prime caHse,
