No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well known authority. Meat forms

they become overworked from the

the waste and poisons from the blood.

in a generally rundown condition or
catch cold easily, this warning should
be needed promptly. You are really
in danger IL exposed to the disease,
because il is generally believed to be
very contagious, and you are apt to
fall an easy victim IL you come in
contact with the germs.
People who are we'll and strong are
not likely to contract the disease be-
cause they are able to throw it off.
The commons sense way to keep from

against attack by building up the con-
stitution, in other words. begin i'm
mediately to build up your powers of
resistance.
To accomplish this it has been dem
onstrated that nothing on earth will
strengthen you and build you up like
Tanlac. the %erful reconstructive
tonic which contains the very elements
needed to build up the system and
give you fighting strength to ward
off the Influenza germ
First of all, Tanlac begins it's work
by creating a good, healthy appetite
for wholesome, nourishing food, and

in the natural way.
Tanlac is also an ideal strengthen

and hundreds of thousands are using
it daily with the most gratifying re-
suits.
In connection with the Tanlac treat
ment it is necessary to keep the bow
els open by taking Tanlac Laxative
Tablets, samples of which are en-
closed with every bottle of Tanlac. 1t
is also important that the everyday
rules of hygiene be observed, that is,
sleep in well-ventilated rooms, get
plenty of fresh air and exercise, and
keep away from crowds.
Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-

According to late press reports is
sued by state and city health authori-
ties. Influenza is again becoming cpl
demic in many sections, and much
alarm is now felt that it may become
general over the entire country.
The disease has made its greatest
progress in Chicago and vicinity,
where thousands of new cases are re-
ported daily. Recently ASIA cases
We're reported in Chicago in one day,
breaking last years record when the
epidemic was at its height. Reports
from other sections are also alarm
ing. and the disease is gaining head
way in some sections of Texas, Vir-
ginia, the Middle-West, and on the
Pacific coast. 1t has also appeared
in other communities, although it has
not as yet reached the epidemic stage.
Owing to the lateness of the sea-
son it is not thought possible that the
disease can become the great and ter
rifying scourge that 1t was last year,
when It swept the entire country and
claimed its victims by the hundreds
of thousands. The danger is too great,
however. to take any chances. and
everything possible should be done to
