TIMELY SUGGESTIONS ABOUT PNEUMONIA.

(Albany Evening Journal.] Thia la the time of year when so many persons fall victims to pneumonia and other lung diseases, hence we call attention to the following interview with a prominent physician: “What la pneumonia, which prevail at thia season of the. year?” “ Pneumonia is an acute lung disease, and is a dangerous and common disorder. It commences with a severe chill and fever. It seems to be an affection of the lungs, but it is really caused- by the b’ood being impoverished by the ncn-removal of natural acids by the liver and kidneys. Pneumonia is always proof of diseased kidneys and liver. Indeed, this is true of many other lung disorders, also. “Pneumonia is a very dangerous disease, and the patient must be treated with hot drinks and the chest be covered with mustard poultices, and then call the best physician.” “ How would you prevent such diseases?" “By keeping the skin, liver, bowels, and kidneys in healthful activity. Thon the blood is free from acid po sons, and pneumonia need not be feared.” For this purpose we know of nothing better than Dr. David Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy, which is a highly reputed specific for ail liver, kidney, bowel, and blood disorders. It is made, wo believe, at Kondout, N. Y., sells for one dollar a bottle, and is the best and surest of all household remedies. . Pneumonia is very common and fatal, and whatever will prevent its ravages is worthy the highest cotnirendation. The speaker who “took the floor” had to return it.
