W. BOWERS. Avoid crowds, coughs and cowards, but fear neither germs nor Germans 1 Keep the system in good order, take plenty of exercise in the fresh air and practice cleanliness. Remember a clean mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels are a protecting armour against disease. To keep the liver and bowels regular and to carry away the poisons within, it is best to take a vegetable pill every other day, made up of May -apple, aloes, jalap, and sugar-coated, to be had at most drug stores, known as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. If there is a sudden onset of what appears like a hard cold, one should go to bed, wrap warm, take a hot mustard foot -bath and drink copi- ously of hot lemonade. If pain develops in head or back, ask the druggist for Anuria (anti -uric) tablets. These will flush the bladder and kidneys and carry off poisonous germs. To control the pains and aches take one Anuric tablet every two hours, with frequent drinks of lemonade. The pneumonia appears in a most treacherous way, when the influ- enza victim is apparently recovering and anxious to leave his bed. In recovering from a bad attack of influenza or pneu- monia the system should be built up with a good herbal tonic, such as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,made without alcohol from the roote and barks of American forest trees, or his Irontic (iron tonic) tablets, which can be ob- tained at most drug stores, or send ick. to Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., for trial package. EXETER. BR., -A. 1:. Kuhn, Mgr. CREDITON-J. A. McDonakd, Mgr F. S. KENT, Mgr., at Dashwood.
