disease. Ordinary exposure results In
pneumonia. The disease seems to
deplete the vitality, undermine the
strength, and affect the balance of the
mind. 1t is one of the sad experiences
of the grip, that the conva1escent sup
posed to be ra1lying well, has been found
in condition of complete collapse.
As result Of the grip the lungs, and
other organs Of respiration seem pecu-
harly liable to be affected and consump-
ton may easily be the after consequence
of the malady. It needs no argument
therefore to urge the building up Of the
system weakened by grip to enable it to
resist and throw of these sequeut dis
eases which SO frequently prove fatal
In actual test DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery has proved itself pecu-
iarly valuable not only in the quick cure
of the disease but also in rebuilding the
body which grip has undermined and in
curing diseases which are prone to fasten
on the enfeebled system. It strengthens
the stomach, heals the lungs, and puri-
6es the blood 1t puts the whole body
on plane of sound and vigorous health.

The Perilous Period Which

Mysterious Malady.

Grip Is bad enough with its aching
bones, infamed eyes, painful back, and
fever But its after effects are perhaps
even more to be dreaded than the misery
attendent on an attack of the disease
itself. The person who comes safely
through an attack of grip, man, woman,
or child, is left in condition of peculiar
debility and prostration from which it is
difficult to rally. A slight cold or cough

THE TOUCH DOES IT

Benson's Plastsrs are like your other
tiends-they hate to see you in pain or
in weakness and are dog-tired hearing you
complain about 1t. They want to cure you
and send you along to your business
and happy. They can do it and soill do it.
Try them on. What for? Why for any
cough or cold you may be troubled with, or
any bothering pain or ache, or worry with
kidneys or liver. Possibly some old clutch
Of muscular rheumatism renders an arm or
leg worth only half price just now. For
anything that makes the machine work slow
and stiff, with pain maybe In the motion Of
it, olapa Benson's Porous Plaster squarely on
the bad spot. They are the get-out- tomorrow
plasters-not the sort that go to sleep on
your skin like cat on cushion. There
il comfort and speedy relief in the touch of
them. No other external remedy, no mat
ter how made or how called, is worthy
to live In the same street with Ben
sons Plasters. Pains and ailments melt
away under them as q sheet of ice does un-
der the Spring sun. You cannot foretell
the weather but you can always foretell
the effect of Benson's Plasters; it is e.
sure as the effect of hot breakfast In o
hungry mans stomach. But look out for
substitutes. Get the genuine. ALI drug

A man talks about owning his business.
But, as a matter of fact his business owns
him. His whole life is regulated by the
demands of the business. The time at
which he rises, his breakfast hour, the
time given to meals, are all determined by
business obligations. He rushes through
lunch because he cant spare the time
from business to eat leisurely. Hewon't
take rest because he is needed at the
store or Office. He is in fact an absolute
slave to business. The results which fol-
low this slavery are to be seen on every
hand. Men dyspeptic irritable, nervous.
