DANGERS .vo,5Eo vo Be IN OCTOBER.

!. DURING the warm summe,
!. months the skin has been free.
!, ly throwing off the impurities
J. of the body in the form of
: perspiration.
]. THE cool days and cooler nights
; of October, in measure, stop
; the action of the skin.
!: IMPURITIES which heretofore
!. were thrown Off by the skin
. must find some outlet. They
! should be eXcreted by the kid
/, neys.
\ GREAT STRAIN is thus
thrown upon the kidneys.
. They are not always prepared
for this increased labor. They
: break down.
. THE POlSONS passing through
the kidneys serve to irritate
them. and this condition soon
|. develops into serious ailments,
. among them Bright's Disease.
! THE LIVER, too, acts in SYM
! pathy with the kidneys. 1t
becomes deranged, causing sal
low skins, depression of spirits
and lassitude.
AN ABNORMAL CONDITION of
the bowels also presents itself.
J Constipation and other bowel
troubles result.
THE blood becomes poisoned by
the retained eXcretiOns. Pim-
pies, bIotches, muddy complex
ions are the first result, and
finally the whole system be-
comes deranged.
COLDS are very easily caught
during this depleted condition
of the system.
AT THIS TIME the kidneys.
liver and bowels need a little
encouragement, little assist
ance-that Is all.
PE-RU-NA gives just this assist
ance. 1t gently stimulates
these organs to increased func-
tiOn. Thus Peruna guards
against the possibilities of dis
ease.
PEOPLE INCLINED TO WEAK
NESS of these organs ought to
be especially careful during
this month.
AT THE FIRST SIGN of disease,
such as puffiness under the
eyes, sallow skin, backache,
colds, and so forth, Pernna
should be taken.
If YOU NOTICE any of the
above symptoms. do not delay
bury a bottle of Peruna to-day.
A bottle Of Perllna taken at
the first symptom will do more
good than r dozen bottles later
on when serious ailments have
developed.
