Many strong, well-built man leaves

This is the way the dreaded pneumonia
takes people off.
The list Of notable men who are its vic
inns is appalling.
1t sweeps over tho land like scourge
and destroys poor and rich alike.
Every one breads it. It's coming is sud

What causes iti
Pneumonia, we are told, is invited by a
certain condition of the system, indicated If
one has occasional chills and fevcrs, ten
dency to cold in the throat and lungs, rhcu-
matte and neuralgic pains, extreme tired
feelings, short breath and plcuritic stitches
in the side, loss of appetite, back ache,
nervous unrest, scalding sensations, or
scant and discolored fluids, heart tlutter-
ings, sour stomach, distressed look, puffy
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, tho person not realizing
that they are natures warning of coming
calamity In other words, if pneumonia
does not claim as a victim the persons hay
ing such symptoms some less sudden but
quite as fatal malady certainly will.
a celebrated New York physician told the
Tribune that pneumonia was secondary
disorder, the exposure and cold being slmp-
" the agent which develops the disease, al
ready dormant in tho system, because the
kidneys have been but partially doing their
duty. In sho"t, pneumonia IS but an carly
Indication of bright's diseased condition
This impaired action my exist for years
without the patient su3pCtiug it because
no pain will bo felt in the kidneys or their
vicinity and often it can be detected only
by chemical and microscOpical obserVa-
tions.
Nearly $50 Of the 40 deaths in New York
city the first week in April land in six
weeks ISL deaths) were caused by pneu-
monia!
The disease is very obstinate, and if the
accompanying kidney disorder is very far
advanced, recovery is impossible, for the
kidneys give out entirely and the patient is
literally sutfocated by water.
The only safeguard against pneumonia is

store full vitality to the kidneys, for, If they

For this purpose there is nothing to equal
Warmers safe cure, a remedy known to
millions, used probably By hundreds Of
thousands and commented as standard
specific wherever known and used. 1t does
not pretend to cure an attack of pneu-
monia, but it does re1',ore the cause Of aud pre-
cent that disease if taksn III time. No reasona-
Bile man can doubt this il he regards the
personal experience Of thousands OF honor
able men.
When physician says his patient has
either bright's disease Or pneumonia he con
fesses his inability to cure, and in measure
he considers his responsibility ended. In
many instances, indeed, persons are report
ed as dying of pneumonia, heart disease,
apoplexy and commissions, when the real
cause of death and 80 known by the physi-
clan is the kidney consumption. Thousands
of people have it without knowing it and
perish of it because their physicians will
not tell them tho facts! The same fate
awaits every one who will not exercise his
Judgment in such matter.
