Dan0erOuS Weakness
 Follows Influenza

influenza, the blood is thin and weak and must have help in it's stupendous task of rebuilding the system and restoring the strength and buoyant vitality to the stricken body.
 Just here is where s. s. s. has proven such a valuable aid, for it is without question the most efficacious blood purifier ever discovered. This reliable old remedy, which has been sold by druggists for more than fifty years, was first used by the Indians, who discovered the medicinal value of the roots and herbs of the forest, and has been used with the greatest success for more than half a century.
 s. s. s. is the one remedy that is so useful in repairing the damage done by influenza and grippe, because it prompt ly enriches the blood supply, and fills the veins with new life and vitality, which in turn re- build the waste tissue through out the system. No matter how long since you have had this disease, you should begin at once to take s. s. S., which will do so much in putting the sys- tenn back into perfect physical condition.
 And remember, too, that avoiding disease is simply a matter of keeping the system in perfect condition, so that those who keep their blood SUD- ply pure and strong and vigor- ous are not nearly so liable to attack. A few bottles of s. s. S. is worth many times it's cost as a precaution against disease.
 Those who take s. s. s. can get any desired medical advice without cost by writing to Chief Medical Adviser, 1O1 Swift Laboratory, Atlanta, Ga. Adv.

There Is Real Danger in the After-Effects of This Treacherous
 Disease

Those who have survived an attack of dreaded influenza find their strength taxed to the utmost and the entire system in a weakened and nerve-shat- tered condition. For this dis ease is intense in it's severity, and it's after-effects are as much to be guarded against as tho disease itself.
 The pain-racked body is in such a debilitated condition that the vitality is at a low ebb, tl,e strength returns very slow ly, and the patient becomes de- ST ondent because of his help lessness. And unless there is a full restoration to his former robust condition, he is liable to fall an easy prey to any ordi- nary illness. In other words, there is danger of a permanent injury to the system.
 You owe it to yourself to re- gain your full strength and health just as completely and promptly as possible, and to take all precautions to avoid the after-effects of the disease. This you can do by giving na- ture such assistance as is need ed in rebuilding the waste tis- sue and restoring the strength and vitality.
 All waste tissue must be re- built and all lost strength must be restored through the blood supply, for through this vital fluid alone can the damage be repaired. And after it's battle with the germs of grippe and

Even If the men did not get overseas it was not their fault, for they were ready and willing to go and fight for their country. You people at home will never know what those boys went through over there.

Who Benefits by High Prices?

You feel that retail meat prices are too high.
 Your retailer says he has to pay higher prices to the packers.
 Swift & Company prove that out of every dollar the retailer pays to the packers for meat, 2 cents is for packers profit, 13 cents is for operating expenses, and 85 cents goes to the stock raiser; and that the prices of live stock and meat move up and down together.
 The live stock raiser points to rising costs of raising live stock.
 Labor reminds us that higher wages of living.
 No one, apparently, is responsible. No one, apparently, is benefited by higher prices and higher income.
 We are all living on high-priced scale. One trouble is, that the number of dollars has multiplied faster than the quantity of goods, so that each dollar buys less than formerly.
