Many men and women gain
no strength. The least exer-

Ambition and energy are al

cause? The cause may vary
but if the Kidneys and Blad-

that's where the trouble lies.

After Influenza What Then?

After this Spanish influenza has swept
the country almost like the "black death"
did in Europe in the Fourteenth Cen
tury, after the storm has passed, we are
confronted by the wrecks of men and
women who have been left in a
weakened condition, with pale faces and
feelings of. general lassitude and weak
ness. It is a fact to be borne in mind
that the effort on the part Of nature to
throw off the poisons during the attack
yof Spanish influenza results sometimes in
nephritis, or inflammation of the kidneys.
In view of the seriousness of this dis
ease as a result Of toxemia, it is most
essential that treatment be directed to-
wards prompt elimination Of the toxins
(poisons) from the body. This means that
the excretory organs the bowels, skin
and kidneys-should be excited to their
best efforts to throw of the poisons.
