SPANISH INFLUENZA
STRIKES SUDDENLY
Pneumonia Often Results Vic
Tins Seized Without Warning,
Making Precaution Doubly

Much of the difficulty experienced
by health authoities in checking the
spread of the Spanish influenza lies in
the fact that it strikes it's victim
without warning.
Although State and Federal au-
thorities are taking every possible
precaution i'm their effort to stop the
spread of the epidemic, the disease
in many sections of the country has
gotten entirely beyond control and is
claiming its victims by the thousands.
It is universally agreed by all well
informed persons that the surest pre-
!ventative is to get the system in the
:, der to be able to throw off the in
fection. AS has been previously STAT
ed it is possible to perfect the powers
Of resistance of the human system so
that it can throw off almost any in
fection, not excepting Spanish Influ-
enza, which is one of the most conta-
gious diseases known.
Medical authorities agree that peo-
pie who are weak and rundown are
the earliest victims Of the Influenza
epidemic. If you find yourself weak
or losing flesh, or if you are in a
generally rundown condition, you are
really in great danger if you should
come in contact with the Influenza
igerm.
AS a powerful reconstructive tonic
and system builder, Tanlac is without
equal This is statement of facts
and is fully supported by recognized
authorities. According to all accept
ed reference works, including the
United States Dispensatory, Encyclo-
pedia Britannica and leading text
books used in the school of medicine
the principle ingredients of Tanlac
posses the most valuable tonic pro-
perties known to science. This state
nent is further proven by the fact
that millions of persons who have ac-
z tually taken Tanlac have testified to
its extraordinary merit as medicine
Tanlac restores health and strnegth
to the weak and rundown system by
enabling every organ Of the body to
perform it's proper function in ma
lures own way. It creates healthy
appetite for good nourishing food, and
is an ideal Strengthening tonic fol-
persons who are in rundown con
dition and who are suffering from the
] ter-effects of Influenza, Grippe O,

"THE POPPIES IN FRANCE"

Over their dust the poppies grow,
Is it out of their hearts they flare and
glow?
From those lonely graves without a
Has righteous anger burst to flame?
To the last dregs they drained the cup,
But we have caught their standard up,
And we will bear it on to where
High victory is, and plant it there.
"They shall not pass!" Nor yet have
they
Your hearts and bodies blocked the
way.
We flung on yours our own, afire,
To drive the Hun back to his lair
We've made your holy cause our own
Freedom still reigns upon her throne,
And ne'er will take backward glance
While poppies guard those graves il
