What the Leading Papers Say About the
Great Danger of These Days.
The leading question of the day among
scientific men and in the leading papers is
the alarming increase of pneumonia, the
death rate showing an increase of over
FIVE HUNDRED PER CENT within
the last few years. Doctor Gouverneur
M. Smith, in an article in the Medical
Record says that while medical art has
advanced of recent years in many direc-
tions, $50 far as pneumonia is concerned
science has shriveled." The New York
Sun, writing on this subject, says: "The
great increase In the fatality of pneumonia
is very alarming, especially as the disease
carries off so many in the fullness of life
and health The New York Herald
says: Considering the impending weather
changes, this dread disease opens Its CAM
paign very vigorously" Surgeon-General
Moore of the army IN his annual report
says: ''The principal cause of death in the
army is pneumonia"
There is one thing that every doctor,
every surgeon and every nurse does upon
the first appearance of pneumonia, and
that is to stimulate the system. The life
is weakened and must be stim mulated to
throw off this terrible disease. Pure
spirits do this; impure spirits do not.
The amount of Duffy's pure malt whiskey
used by the doctors and nurses in the
land in case of pneumonia is enormous.
Great care should be exercised in securing
the genuine, and great promptness in
taking it on the approach OF the first
symptoms,

Opinions of Some skinfuI Chicago
Physicians.
The new article now being used in place
of coffee has made many friends, and it
may interest these friends and others to
know the opinion of some of the we'll
known physicians of Chicago on the SUBJ
ject. The following are extracts from a
few of their letters now on nile in the Office
of the Postum Cereal Co., Linn, at Battle
Creek, Mich:
DR.. G. E. Bass. SO. Chicago, ILL.,: 81 have
tried Postum and was well enough pleased
that would like TO use more of it. Kind v

locality"
DR.. Almond Brooks. 81 Quincy street,

practice as a substitute for coffee, the use
Of which daily prohibit"
DR.. VIM. Bohart, Emerald ave. and 4Sd
ST., Chicago, ILL.,: Your Postum 1 have
tried and like it very much"
DR.. Jose phi P. Cobb, ''The Clinique," 3156
Indian ave-, Chicago: "Your sample OF
Postum is received and brewed. It is
pleasant, and when substitute for coffee
is desired will, believe, be of value.''
DR.. Archibald Church, attending physi-
clan to st. Lukes Hospital, Professor of
Nervous Diseases, Chicago Polytechnic and
Home for Crippled Children, Pul man
Bldg, Chicago, in letter to the Postum
Cereal Co.. Linn, Battle Creek, Mich. II
have made trial of Postum and think it
will serve admirably as substitute for
coffee for those who are accustomed to use
sugar in that beverage"
There are many more letters of a like
character from prominent physicians in
all parts of America expressing their
thanks for the help gained and to be
gained by their patients in the use of the
