SPANISH INFLUENZA OR GRIP
nv mr. LEE II cMr1,lI
BY DR.. LEE II. SMITH.

An old enemy is with us again, and
whether we fight a German or a germ,
we must put up a good fight, and not
be afraid. The influenza runs a very
Sbrief course when the patient is care
dul, and II we keep the system in good
which tend to accumulate within our
bodies, we can escape the disease. Pc
member these three C's-a clean mouth,
a clean skin, and clean bowels. To
carry off polsons from the system and
keep the bowels loose, daily doses of
9 pleasant laxative should be taken.
Such a one is made of May-apple,
leaves Of aloe, root of jalap, and called
DR.. PierCe's Pleasant Pellets. Hot lem
onade should be used freely il attacked
by a cold, and the patient should be
put to bed after a hot mustard foot
bath.
TO prevent the attack Of bronchitis
or pneumonia and to control the pain,
Anuric tablets should be obtained at
the drug store, and one given every
two hours, with lemonade. The AnuriG
tablets were first discovered by DR..
Pierce, and, as they flush the bladder
and cleanse the Kidneys, they carry
away much OF the poisons and the uric
acid,
1t Is important that broths, milk, but
ternilk, ice cream and simple diet be
given regularly to strengthen the avs.
tenn and increase the vital resistance,
The fever is diminished by the use OF
Anuric tablets, but in addition, the
forehead, arms and hands may be
bathed with water (tepid) in which a
tablespoonful Of salaratus has been dis.
solved IN a quart. After an attack OF
grip or pneumonia to build up and
strengthen the system, obtain at the
drug store a good iron tonic, called
"1rontic' Tablets, or that well known
herbal tonic, DR.. Pierce's Golden Med.

SALTS IF BACKACHY

Drink Lots of Water and Stop
Eating Meat for a While If
Your Bladder Troubles
You.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region il
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says d well known au-
thority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they be-
come sort Of paralyzed and Ioggy. When
your kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels: removing all the body's urin-
Gus waste, else you have backache, sick
headache, dizzy spells; your stomach
sours, tongue is coated. and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine Is cloudy, fun OF
sediment, channels often get sore, water
scalds and you are obliged to seek re-
lief two or three times during the night.
Either consult a good, reliable ply
stefan at once or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts:
Jake a tablespoonful in a glass Of water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid OF
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for genera
tons to clean and stimulate sluggish
kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the
urine SO it nc longer i~rritates, thus
ending bladder weakness.

meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, can not
iniure and makes a delightful, effer-
vescent lithia-water drink. adv.
