BENEFITS IN DISEASE.
Typhoid, if You Pull Through, Gives
You a New Stomach.


Typhoid, if You Pull Through, Gives
You New Stomach.
To be struck down by disease seems
n most undesirable thing, yet there are
many living today In the fullest en-
joyment OF very excellent health who
but for an attack OF some disease
would have lived a life of almost per.
petual misery.
These people were, first Of all, vic
Tins OF indigestion in its worst form,
and only those who have experienced
1t know what true indigestion ia.
Struck down by typhoid fever, they
came through the trying ordeal cured
of indigestion, for one outstanding ec-
centricity OF typhoid is that IL You
pass through an attack safely 1t gives
you a new stomach. In fact, after an
attack Of typhoid the victim is usually
left with a stomach like an infant.
That is the grand chance offered to
one who has suffered, it may be, for
long years from acute indigestion. If
only he takes care, after an attack OF
typhoid he need never know indiges-
ton again.
Be It remembered that any one trou-
bled with severe Indigestion Is not adj
vised to 60 hunting around for typhoid
fever. That might prove to be disas-
trous course TO follow.
A chronic cold is Just one Of those
things which none OF us want, yet
even chronic cold has it's good points.
more especially IL you happen to be UP
In years bit-not too old. Of course.
People who arc up in years and who
suffer from chronic bronchitis seem
to get remarkably well. 1t keeps the
blood in good circulation, for, Of
course, the victims have to cough. and
that gives the heart a jerk and sends
the blood coursing nicely through the
veins and arteries.
If the cold be not too acute, old peo.
pie derive considerable benefit. An
acute attack, on the other hand, may
cut off an old person in a day or two.
It is the chronic type only which yields
benefit.
Smallpox is a dreaded scourge, so
much so that IL 1t be reported that a
case exists in a neighborhood a thrill
passes through the whole community.
Yet those who suffer from smallpox
and recover usually live to green old
age. 1t seems to renew life in some
mysterious way by thoroughly purify.

The reason is that If rheumatism is

man frame at bay, especially those OF
the germ type.
Very naturally II you have such o
grand friend at hand you have to pay
something for aid rendered, but the
pain Of rheumatism, IL shockingly Sc.
we're at times, is not deadly, and that
is why one gets so little sympathy
when suffering from rheumatism
But the plain fact is that a slight
malady always benefits You, even II
Indirectly. AS an example OF that
say a very bad spell of weather comes
along, cold and wet and you contract
a slight chill.
What do you propose to do7 Why,
to take the greatest care of yourself
and make as certain as possible that
your cold gets no chance Of develop
