of nature were too weak to contend with the debil-

Ii is sad to think how many people have died who
might have been saved If nature had been properly
assisted ana fortified after tho Grippe had
been driven from the system. Many physi-
clans realized this fact. and assisted their pa
tieuts over the dangerous after affects by bracing
up and stimulating their systems This was, and
can be done in but way and that is by the
