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 weak
ened and nerve-shattered condi-
ton. For this disease is intense
in its severity. and its after-effects
are as much to be guarded against
as the disease itself.
The pain-racked body is in such
debihtated condition that the
vitality is at a low ebb. the
strength returns very slowly. and
the patient becomes despondent
because of his helplessness. And
unless there is a full restoration
to his former robust condition. he
is liable to fall an easy prey to
any ordinary illness. In other
words. there is danger of perma-
nent 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 precau-
ton to avoid the after-effects Of the
disease. This you can do by Civ
ing nature such assistance as is
needed In rebuilding the waste tbs
sue and restoring the strength and
vitality.
All waste tissue must be rebuilt
and all lost strength must be re-
stored through the blood supply,
for through this vital fluid alone
can the damage be repaired. And

J grippe and influenza. the blood i.

that I was untrue and unfaithful to the
friends of our country and to the Demo-
cratic party.
If elected I intend to vigorously support
the American Cotton Association now in
course of organization and championed by
Mr.. J. Skottowe Wannamaker of st. Mat
thews, S. G.. This, of course, carries it my
support for the proper price to be paid our
farmers for their cotton and tobacco. The
New England spinner, the bear speculator
and the tobacco manufacturers have pros
pered and fattened long enough on the
misfortunes and adversely of our farmers.
I intend to support, or if necessary, in
troduce some measure that will restrict the
immigration to this country and [ think it
would be we'll for the United States Gov
ernment to forbid any immigration for
period of years and to adopt some meas
ures looking toward the assimilation of our
present foreign born population. When
immigration is again established the thing
to do is to require every man who arrives
at Ellis Island or elsewhere to sign his first
declaration of citizenship or else return
from whence he came. This country must
be 100 per cent. American if we are to live
and prosper.
Regarding the recent and present agita-
ton governing the sale of potash for use by
our farmers, the resolution adopted by the
American Cotton Association opposing any
tax which will stop the importation of pot
ash from abroad will have my support.
European countries have large supply of
potash and need money. Why should we
not purchase from them? Heavy indem-
mites will have to be paid by some of the
countries of Europe and unless they can
sell some of their commodities they can not
pay. Any protective tariff will simply pro-
tect the millionaire interests of America,
who are turning out, according to the De-
partment of Agriculture, inferior potash
which is destroying the crops of this coun-
try and which is costing great deal more
