INFLUENZA RUNS
INTO NEURASTHENIA
in MANY CASES
Weak Nerves Following an Attack of Grip Must Be Built
Up by the Tonic Treatment Before Health Can Be
Restored

Every epidemic of influenza that has
swept this country has left in its path
victims who have recovered from the
acute attack but remain semi-invalids as
result of the condition in which the
disease left them Pneumonia is one
of the most familiar after effects of in
fuenza and is responsible for large per-
centage of deaths resulting from the cpl
demic. In children influenza sometimes
develops spinal meningitis, in elderly
people chronic bronchitis and rheumatism
often follow an attack and nearly every
victim Of the plague has some form of
neurasthenia or nervous debility
So commonly is neurasthenia an after
effect Of the grip and influenza that ply
sicians have given this stubborn form of
nervous trouble the name post grippal
neurasthenia," meaning nervous prostra-
tion following the grip. One distin-
guished authority on nervous conditions
says that, broadly speaking, every victim
Of the grip win suffer from post -gTippal
neurasthenia also. Lowering of nervous
tone with increased irritability of the
nerves is the most striking effect of the
disease. Languor of mind and body often
described as a tired feeling, disturbed and
titful sleep and vague pains in the head
and elsewhere are common symptoms.
The condition is caused by under nour-
ished nerves. 1t calls for rest and the
use of non-alcoholic tonic.
Neurasthenia is brought on in some
cases by lack Of rest and sleep, by worry
and anxiety and many people who have
cared for the sick during an epidemic
find themselves suffering from it al
though they have escaped the infection
itself,
Tonic Treatment Recommended.
A highly successful treatment for neu-
rasthenia and for the debility that so
generally follows an attack of the grip
or influenza is the use of a tonic that

of the grip until she tried this treat
ment. She says:

To rebuild the blood, to strengthen the
weakened nerves and to get back the
lost flesh and strength is the problem
of the victim of an attack of influenza.
How MIR. Charles Darling of No. IA Week
street, Bath, Me-, accomplished this is
best told in his own words
MY doctor treated me successfully for
the grip" he says, "but he did not seem
to help the after-efTects of the disease.
I had headaches nearly all the time, my
strength was nearly spent and | often
had to lie down and rest. | was pale
and lost in weight and had a dull, lam
guild feeling most of the time, My blood
was very thin and poor and my stomach

tired feeling, my color is normal and I

The debility that invariably follows
influenza is not disease of any one
organ. 1t is a general condition of UNI
fitness. II must be met by remedy
whose good results will be quickly gem

In fact it must be corrected by building
up the blood which, when rich and red,

inc Civil War;

Thers is story of the American
rhe that has been handed down in
the hearthStone history and traditions
OF those who for generations have
lived In the West. 1t begins with
the Greenbrier region of Virginia of
colonial times, thence into Kentucky,
to Missouri in the days of Upper
Louisiana. thence to the great prairies
or the far West and on to California.
The family rifle was dear and sacred.
John and Margaret Ferril and their
FAMILY were with a party of pioneers
from the Greenbrier region who mi.
grated to Kentucky in the early DAYS.
owing to the hostilities Of the in.
dams, they were armed and under the
command Of Capt. Jacob Baughman, a
brother Of Margaret Ferril.
They packed" on horses over the
Allegheny mountains and when in
camp at or near Crab Orchard. KY.
were attacked in the night by Indians.
In the fight that ensued Capt. Bauch.

dlans long enough to ehuble sotne o.
the women and children to escape.
among the number thus saved were
Margaret Ferril, a son. John terril,
and two daughters; and also Mrs. ia
cob Baughnan, son Henry Of ten
der age, and two daughters.
The Baughman-Ferril fight, or massa-
ere. occurred In the fall Of 1910.
John Ferril then fourteen Years old,
who had escaped, swore an oath of re-
venge on his rifle. He kept that vow.
and his rifle became bloody one Ia
the Indian wars of Kcptucky;
In the Boone Lick region OF IIs.
souri,, now Howard county, IN 1919,
were built several forts for proter,inn
against Indians, especially the Sacs
and Foxes and the PottaWafo.nieS.
JOHN Ferrtl fhd family We're In one
OF them, known as Fon Cooper. He
here still possessed hfs old Kentucky
rifle. After the war of 1872, in add.
ton to farming, Ne often engaged in
hunting expsditons up the Missouri
and Kansas rivers, and sometimes far
out on the great prairies.
Over century ago he hunted bear
and other game on what Is now the
cite OF Kansas City. He and other
frontiersmen then predicted that q
great city would be founded on the
confluence Of the Missouri and Kan.
sas rivers.
The old rifle OF John Ferril has beer
preserved. During the Civil war. when
the authorities were collecting nll the
guns In Saline county. Missouri. they
seized the old Ferril rife. Keziah Fer

rifle should he hid away. and thus III,
old Ferril rifle became a noncomha:
ant In the Civil war. 1t later passed
to the possession OF Jesse Ferril, cOun
