HOW TO FIGHT
SPANISH INFLUENZA
BY DIR. L. W. BOWERS.

Avoid crowds, coughs and towards,
but fear neither germs nor Germans
Keep the system in good order, take
plenty of exercise in the fresh air and
practice cleanliness. Remember clean
mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels
are protecting armour against disease.
To keep the liver and bowels regular
and to carry away the poisons within,
it is best to take vegetable pill every
other day, made up of May-apple, aloes,
jalap, and sugar coated, to be had at
most drug stores, known as DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. II there is sudden
onset Of what appears like hard cold,
one should 60 to bed, wrap warm, take
hot mustard foot-bath and drink copi-
ously of hot lemonade. Ifpain develops
in head or back, ask the druggist for
Anuric (anti-uric) tablets. These will
flush the bladder and kidneys and carry
off poisonous germs. To control the
pains and aches take one Anuric tablet
every two hours, with frequent drinks OF
lemonade. The pneumonia appears in
q most treacherous way, when the inf1u.
enza victim is apparently recovering and
anxious to leave his bed. In recovering
from bad attack Of influenza or pneu-
monia the system shosld be built ,up
with good herbal tonic, such as DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, made
without alcohol from the roots and barks
of American forest trees, or his Irontic
(iron tonic) tablets, which can be OBJ.
tanned at most drug stores, or send lOc.
to DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo,
N. Y, for trial package.
