DEADLY DRINKING WATER
A Universal Epidemic Caused-How
1t May be Avoided
Typhoid fever RACES evely WIND.

Typhoid fever RACES everywhere
Wherever cities are dependent upon riv.
ers or streams for their drinking water, the
fever RACES violently Throughout the en-
tire Southwest and Northwest tho wells are
low the water is of very poor quality; and
here also the fever RACES.
The authorities of Albany, y. y, Chca-
go, Cincinnati, St Louis, Philadelphia and
other large cities 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 encoun-
ter a summer of cholera.
Cholera and typhoid and malaral feveis
can all be prevented by 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. .te
This blood is made impure because of the
impurities in the drinking water, these inn
Durities being deadly poisons which paralyze
the nerve action of the kidneys and liver.
When these blood purifying organs are par
alyzed, 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-thirds of ones body is
made I'D of water If the water we drink is
impure, then how can we hope to escape
diseased conditions.
1t is impossible. The stomach, liver and
kidneys cannot purify polluted 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 impuri-
ty, they soon become foul.
Now in like manner the human kidneys
act as filter for the blood, and if they are
filed up with impurities and become foul
like the filter, all the blood in the system
coursing through them becomes bad, for it
is now a conceded fact That the kidneys are
the chief means whereby the blood is puri-
fed. These organs are filed with thousands
of har-like tubes, which drain the impuri-
ties from the blood, as the sewer pipes
drain impurities from our houses.
If a sewer pipe breaks under the, house,
the sewerage escapes into the earth and fills
the house with poisonous gas; SO II any OF
the thousand and one little hair-llke sewer
tubes of the kidneys break down, the entire
body is effected by this awful poison.
1t Is scientific fact that the kidneys 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 arrangement
exists in these organs, and if the blood is not
| filtered then the uric acid or kidney poison,
removable only by Warmers safe cure, &C
cumuates in the system and attacks any
organ, producing nine out of ten all
ments, Just as sewer gas and bad drainage
produces so many fatal disorders.
! Kidney disease may be known to exist it
there is any mdrked departure from Ordin-
| nlYy health without apparent known
cause. and it should be understood by all
that the greatest peril exists and is intensi-
fed If there is the least neglect to treat il
promptly with that great specific, Warmers
safe cure. Ii remedy that has received the
highest recognition by scientific men, who
have thoroughly Investigated the character
| of kidney arrangements.
The liver when deranged, immediately
announces the fact by sallOw skin, constipa-
ted bowels, coated tongue and headaches
but the kidney when diseased struggles on
| for long time, and the fact of its disease
can only be discovered by the aid of the mi
croscope or the physician who is skillful
enough to trace the most indirect effects in
| the system to the arrangement o. these or
| gans as the prime cause.
