Physicians Are Expecting a Great
Epidemic.
WHAT DIR. EDSON SAYS.

BE ON Your Guard if You Value Your
Health ana Happiness Where 20 Find
the Ounce OF Prevention.
Dr. Cyrus Edison, one Of the greatest
physicians in America, states positively
that we may expect another grip epi-
demic before the spring months begin.
His reason for thinking so is that we
have had about the sort Of weather for
grip, including changes Of temperature,
muggy atmosphere. heat aud cold
There are also other sure signs People
every are complaining Of coughs,
colds and chills. They are snecziug con.
tindally, feel weak and run down. Sick
ness is certainly increasing. and every
day long list Of fatal cases of pueu-
monla is reported. Such alarming facts
must receive attention from every person
who values life and health. II is only by
exercising the greatest care that these
dangers can be avoided.
But You ask, what Is the secret Of
avoiding themy There is but one secret
and that is by keeping the kidneys and
liver In good working order When
these great organs do not gc properly,
grip and other deadly diseases can easily
take firm hold upon MS When they
do act properly, grip can be Kept at bay
10 is now admitted by the best pbysi-
clans, professors aud advanced thinkers
the world over that nothing has ever
been discovered that can accomplish this
purpose of Keeping the kidneys aud liver
in perfect condition except the great
remedy known os Warmers Safe Cure
This great preparation has been tested
thoroughly for the pasr twenty years.
and GAS never fei|cd to prevent the
coming on of grip, pneumonia aud the
terrible dangers which follow i'm their
wake Thousands OF nauos could be
given OF those who have found this TO be-
true, and 30 has become SO wonderfully
popular entirely upon its mef o..
But while this great cure will invari-
ably prevent am attack OF the grip II
taken In time il has an equally great
record owing 10 tbe great cures it has
performed From one end Of the land to
the other this subtle disease, with its
terrible after effects. has been entirely
overcome by this great remedy See
what few have TO say:
Mr. i A Calls, Of Dickinson, Md
says: Il was taken in Chicago with the
grip ! took n.any remedies, but got no
