Many a strong, weli-built man leaves
home today; before night no will have q
chill and In a few hours will bo dead
This is tho way tho dreaded pneumonia
The list Of notable men who arc It's VIC
Tins Is appalling.
II sweeps over the land like scourge
and destroys poor and rich alike.
Every one breads IT, 1ts coming Is sud
den, its termination usually speedy.
What cadses 80
Pneumonia, wo ORD told. IA invited by o
certain condition Of the system, indicated II
one has occasional chills and tevofsi ten
dency to cold in tho throat and lung rheu'
matio and neuralgia pains, cxtreme tired
feelings, short breath and pleuritic stitches
In tho side, loss OF appetite, back.ache,
nervous unrest, scalding sensations, or
scant and dscolcred fluids, heart hutter-
ings, sour stomach, distressed look, pufy
eye sacs, hot and dry skin, loss Of strength
and vitality.
These indications may not appear to-
gether, they may come, disappear and re-
appear for years, the person not realizing
tnat they are natures warning OF coming
calamity In other words, IN pneumonia
does not claim as O victim the persons hav-
ing such symptoms some less sudden but
quite as fatal malady certainly will.
A celebrated New York physician told the
Tribune that pneumonia was a secondary
disorder the exposure and cold being simp-
ly the agent which develops the disease, al
ready dormant In the system, because the
kidneys have been but partially doing their
duty. In short, pneumonia is but an early
indication Of q bright's diseased condition.
This impaired action may exist for years
without the patient suspecting IL because
no pain will be felt in the kidneys or their
vicinity and often IL can be detected only
by chemical and microscopical observa-
tions.
Nearly 100 Of tho 40 deaths in New York
city the first week in April land IN six
weeks 7s1 deaths) woro caused by pneu-
monial
The disease IL very obstinate, and II tho
accompanying kidney disorder is very far
advanced, recovery Is impossible, for the
kidneys give out entirely, and the patient is
literally suffocated by water.
The only safeguard against pneumonia Is
20 maintain vigorous condition Of tho sys-
TEN, and thus prevent ts attacks, by using
whatever win radically aud effectually re-
store full vitality TO tho kidneys, for, u hey
are not sound, plcuBionid cannot be prevented
For this purpose there Is nothing TO equal
Warmers safe cure, n remedy known 20
millions, used probably by hundreds Of
thousands and commended ao a standard
specific wherever knowd and used. II does
not pretend to cure an attack OF pneu-
monia, but 1t does renou' ne cause Of and pre-
reHt that disease " tdksn fa time. No reasona-
BILE man can doubt this II he regards the
personal experience Of thousands Of honor
able men.
When q physician says his patient has
either bright's disease or pneumonia he con
fesses his inability TO cure, and In ameasuro
he considers his responsibility ended. In
many instances, indeed, persons are report
cd as dying OF pneumonia, heart disease,
apOplexy and commissions, when tho real
cause OF death and 80 known by the physl-
clan is the kidney consumption. Thousands
Of people have II without knowing II aud
perish Of IL because ttsir physicians will
not tell them tho factsl The same fate
awaits every one who will not exercise his
Judgment in such a matter
