Spanish Influenza
Rapidly Spreading
PERSONS Weak and Rundown Easv
N1Ims --Forticy Yourself Against
1t Bv Taking Tanlac.

According to lat, reports issued bv
State and Federal health authorities
the Spanish Influenza is rapidly
spreading to all parts of the country.
and it now seems that practically every
State in the Union will be seriously
affec,-d before it runs its course.
1t has not only become a great and
terrifying menace to the public health,
but unless checked, it is apt to serious
ly affect the progress of wa. work in all
its various departments, Already the
Shipping Board has announced that ten
per cent of its workers had been affect
ed.
The disease has made its greatest
progress in the East where it has claim
ed its victims by the thousands, Re.
ports from other sections, however, are
equally alarming; AID both civil and
military author ties have warned the
public to tax; evcly preca ution to
prevent lis further spread. In many
cities schools, chu cles and theatres
have been closed and public gatherings
of all kinds forbidden.
Medical authorities agree that people
who are week and rundown are the
earliest victims of the Influenza epidem
ic. If you find yourself tired, weak
and losing flesh. or if you are in a
generally rundown condition, or if
you catch cold easily this warning
should be- needed promptly. You are
really in great danger, because the
germ of this disease is very cathing
and you are apt to fall an early victim
if you come in contact with the germs.
People who are we'll and strong are not
likely te contract the disease because
they are able to throw it off. The com
mon sense way to keep from taking il
is to fortify the system against attack
by building up the constitution.
AN ounce of prevention is worth a
; pound of cure" And if yon are in q
sub-normal condition the proper thing
to do is to begin Immediately to buil6
up your powers of resistance. To &C
> compllsh this, nothing on earth viii
, strengthen you and build you up like
, Tanlac, the powerful reconstructivt
tonic, which contains the very element
needed by the system to give you fight
. ing strength aud ward off the infuenz:
, germ.
First of all Tanlac begins its actio,
by creating good healthy appetite TO
wholesome, nourishing food, and asst
8 every organ of the body to perform it
natural functions, thus helping to built
J, up health and strength i'll the natara
: way.
Tanlac is also the ideal strengthenin
tonic for persons who are sufferin
e from the at -er effects of Influenza
# Grippe or Bronchial troubles and hur
q dreds of thousands are using it dali
e with the most gratifying results.
In connection with Tanlac treatmen
it is necessary to keep the bowels ope
v by taking Tanlac Laxative Tablet
:, samples of which are inclnded wit
. every bottle of Tarlac. 1t is also in
L. portant that the every day rules of by
r. giene be observed: that is, sleep in we
ventilated rooms, get plenty of fires
air and exercise and keep away fro
n from crowds.
