..PNEUMONIA."
Why not Gail this Terrible Sceurge b.
its kightful Namee

(NetC YORK IelegrQm.D
Many a strong well-built man leaves home
to-day; before night he will have q chill and
i'll few hours will be dead
This is the way the dreaded pneumonia
takes people off.
The list of notable men who are its victims
is appalling.
1t sweeps over the land like q scourge and
destroys poor and rich alike.
Everyone breads it. Its coming Is sudden,
its termination usually speedy.
What causes 1t!
Pneumonia, We are told il invited by a
certain condition Of the system, indicated If
one has occasional chills and fevers. a ten
dency to cold in the throat and lungs, rheu-
matic and neuralgia pains. extreme tired
feelings, short breath and pleuritic stitches
in the SIDE nervous unrest, scalding sensa-
tons, or scant and discolored fluids, heart
futterings, sour stomach. distressed look,
puffy eye sacs, hot and dry skin, loss Of
strength and virility.
These indications may not appear together,
they may come, disappear and reappear for
years, the person not realizing that they are
natures warning of a coming calamity.
In other words, if pneumonia does not
claim as victim the persons having such
symptoms some less sudden but quite as fatal
malady certainly will.
A celebrated New York physical told the
Tribune that pneumonia was a secondary
the agent which develops the disease already
dormant in the system, because the kidneys
have been but partially doing their duty. In
short, pneumonia is but an early indication
of a bright's diseased condition. This impaired
action may exist for years without the pa
tent suspecting it, because no pain will be
felt in the kidneys or their vicinity, and often
it can be detected only by chemical and mi
croscopical observations.
Nearly $50 of the 40 deaths in New York
City the first week in April land in six weeks
ISL Deaths were caused by pneumonia
The disease is very obstinate, and if the
accompanying kidney disorder is very far
advanced, recovery is impossible, for the kid
neys give out entirely, and the patient is lit
orally suffocated by water.
The only safeguard against pneumonia is
to maintain a vigorous condition of the
system. and thus prerent its attacks, by
using whatever will radically and effec-
tually restore full vitality to the kidneys,
for If they are not sound pneumonia can
not be prevented. For this purpose there
is nothing equal to Warmers safe cure q
remedy known to millions, used probably by
hundreds of thousands and commended as q
standard specific wherever known and used.
1t does not pretend to cure an attack Of
pneumonia. but it does remore the cause of
and prerent that disease If taken in time
No reasonable man can doubt this if he re-
CARDS the personal experience of thousands
Of honorable men.
When PHYSICIAN says his patient has
either brights disease or pneumonia he con-
fesses his inability to cure and in measure
he considers his responsibility ended. In
many instances, indeed, persons are reported
as dying of pneumonia, heart disease,
apoplexy and commissions, when the real
cause Of death, and so known by the physI-
clans, is this kidney consumption. Thousands
Of people have it without knowing it and
perish of it because their physicians will not
tell them the facts, The same fate awaits
every one who will not exercise his judgment
in such a matter
