What 1t Really Is. A Newspaper Enves-
litigation Reveals Its Cause and Des-
cribes Its Dangers.
Many a strong, well-built man leaves
home to-day, before night he will have d
chill, and in a few hours he will be dead!
This is the way the dreaded pneumonia
takes people of. The list of notable
men who are its victims is appalling
William j. Florence, the popular actor
who was supporting Joseph Jefferson, is
taken with a chill while acting. Next
day the physicians tell us he is doing
we'll. In two days he is dead.
Gen. Meigs, able, loyal, brave, while
taking a bath, feels a sudden tremor, a
weakness, and is hurried to his death.
Every n breads this prevalent dis
order. Its coming is sudden, it's termfn-
alton usually speedy.
What causes the terribles couree? q
1t is not "in the air,"-infectious or
contagious. It results from exposure.
changes of weather, and prevails more
among the apparently healthy than.
among the feeble.
Pneumonia, we are told, is invited by
certain condition of the system, indi-
Gated If one has occasional chills and.
levers, a tendency to colds in the throat
and lungs, rheumatic and neura]pic
pains, extreme tired feelings, short
breath and pleuritic stitches in the side.
hot and dry skin, loss of strength and
virility. These indications may not an.
pear together, they may come, disappear
and re-appear, the person not REALIZING
that they are natures warnings Of q
coming calamity.
A celebrated New York physician
recently told the Tribune that pneu-
monia was a secondary disorder, the
exposure and cold being simply the
agent which develops the disease, already
dormant in the system, because the kid
neys have been but partially doing their
duty. In short, pneumonia is an early
indication of a bright's diseased condi-
ton. This impaired action may exist
for 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
m~icroscopical examination.
The only safeguard against pneumonia
ls to MAINTAIN a vigorous condition Of
the system, and thus prevent it's attacks.
by using whatever will radically and ef-
fectually restore full vitality to the kid
neys, for pneumonia can never be pre-
vented when they are disordered. There
are scores of men, and women too, who
are only too willing to preserve these
great organs and prevent pneumonia who
do not know how to do so. 1t is no EASY
task. 1t requires care and the careful
use OF just the proper thing. Many per-
sons have questioned what is the best
thing to use, but physicians are quite
generally agreed that nothing 80 safely
and so certainly does this as Warmers
Safe Cure. 1t is a remedy known to-
millions and commended as a standard
specific wherever known. It does not
pretend to cure an attack of pneumonia,
but it does and can remove the cause Of
and prevent that disease If taken in time.
No reasonable man can doubt this if he
regards the personal experience of thou
sands Of honorable men worthy his
favor.
When a physician says his patient has
either Bright's disease or pneumonia, he
confesses his inability to cure, and in a
measure he considers his responsibility
ended. In many instances, indeed,
persons are reported as dying from pneu-
monia. heart disease, apoplexy and con-
WILSON'S when the real cause of death
and SO known by the physicians is this
kidney consumption. Thousands of
people have it without knowing it and
perish of it because their physician will
not tell them the facts! The same fate
awaits every one who will not exercise
his judgment in such a matter and be
true to himself, his family and to
society.
