Why Not Cali This Terrible scourgs By
Its Rightful Name.

Why Not Call This Terrible scourgs b!
Its Rightful Name.
Many strong, well-built man leavel
home to-day; before night he will hav'
q chill ana in few hours will be dead
This is the way the dreaded pneu
monia takes people of.
The list of notable men who are it
victims Is appalling.
1t sweeps over the land like q scourgt
and destroys poor and rich alike.
Everyone breads it. Its coming Il
sudden, its termination usually speedy
What causes it?
Pneumonia, we are told, is invited BY
q certain condition of the system, indi
Gated if one has occasional chllls and to
vere, tendency to cold in the thros,
and lungs, rheumatic and neuralgia
pains, extreme tired feelings, shot
breath ard pleuritic stitches In the side
loss OF appetite, backache, nervous un.
rest, scaIdlng sensations, or scant and
discolored huide, heart tiutterings, soul
stomach, distre sed look, puffy eye sacs,
bot and dry skin, loss of strength and
virility.
These indications may not appear to-
gether, they may come, disappear and
reappear for years, the person not real
izing that they are natures warning OF
q 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 ply sician told
the Tribune that pneumonia was Sec
ondary disorder, the exposure and cold
being simply the agent which develops
the disea-e, already dormant in the sys-
tenn, because the kidneys have been but
partially doing their duty. In short,
pneumonia is but an early indication Of
e bright's diseased condition. This i'm
paired action may exist tor years without
the patient suspecting it, because no
pain will be felt in the kidneys or their
vicinity and often it can be detected
only by chemical and microscopical OBJ
servations.
Nearly $50 of the 74O deaths in New
York City the first week in April and
in six weeks 781 deaths) were caused by
pneumonia
The disease is very obstinate, and If
the accompanying kidney disorder is
very far advanced, recovery is impossi-
BILE, for the kidneys give out entirely,
and the patient is literally suffocated by
water.
The only safeguard against pneu-
monia is to maintain vigorous condi-
ton of the system, and thus prevent its
attacks, by using whatever will radical
~ and effectually restore full vitality to
the kidneys, for If they are not sound,
pneumonia cannot be prevented. For
this purpose there is nothing equal
to Warmers safe cure, remedy known
to millions, used probably by hundreds
of thousands and commended as stand
ard specific wherever known and used.
It does not pretend to cure an attack of
pneumonia, but it does remoue the cause
OF ana prevent thGt dsSeGse II taken IN
time. No reasonable man can doubt this
if he regards the personal experience of
thousands of honorable men.
When a physician says his patient
has either bright's disease or pneumonia
he confesses his inability to cure, and in
q measure he considers his responsibility
ended. In many instances, indeed, per-
sons are reported as dying of pneu-
monia, heart disease, spoplexy and con-
WILSON'S, when the real cause of death
and SO known by the physician is this
kidney consumption. Thousands of peo-
pie have it without knowing it and per-
ish 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 matter.
