It is to the method of securing that day of rest that he objects. And again we say that in that Fespect he undoubtedly is right. The city council, the Mayor, and the taxpayers, however, should bear in mind} that with this veto the matter cannot be deemed settled and that at the earliest opportunity, the necessary mean !

If you have been a victim of the flu, even though you were fortunate enough to es- |cape the fatal effects that | the disease so often leaves in ‘its wake, you need not be | told of the damage to the hu- |man system which this terri- | ble disease causes. The human system, after a severe attack of the flu, can be likened to a battlefield, with its scarred and mutilated evidences of wreck and destruction. For the human body has indeed been through a severe conflict, a siege that will tax and test the last ounce of strength and endurance, Even after complete recovery, the task of repairing the damage and restoring the lost vitality is a slow and oftentimes dis- couraging one, for it seems that you will just never be entirely free from the fatigue and depression that follows as an after-effect of the flu. of gear, for the damaging ef- fects of the flu seem to per- meate the entire system, \leaving you weak and sore, | your nerves all unstrung, the appetite far below normal, the stomach upset, and the entire vitality at a low ebb. Then, too, there is always danger of a recurring attack, as well as the increasing lia- bility to succumb to almost any ordinary illness, while you are in such a weakenec condition. Not until your full strength and vitality have heen restored can you con- sider yourself entirely out of danger, for your disease- resistance should at all times be kept .up to the highest mark. The damage that has been Flu Leaves the System Shattered and Torr, Your whole body seems out | done to your system by this disease must be repaired, and new tissue must be built to supply the waste that has taken place. Nature is a great healer, but before she can do her work thoroughly such obstacles as are in the way must be removed so that the full effect of her func- tions can be obtained. First of all the blood, which has been impoverished and weak- ened, must be built up to a healthy and robust condition, so that an abundant supply of this rich, red life-giving fluid can be sent coursing through the veins to revitalize the system. You can readily see, there- fore, the importance of giving nature all possible assistance in restoring your system and repairing the damage whi flu has wrought. If you wish to regain your lost strength and once again enjoy the ro- bust vitality of perfect health, first of all rebuild the blood supply and thus give nature the aid that she so badly needs. ' S. S. S. ig the one remedy that is so useful in repairing ~ the damage done by the flu because it promptly enriches — the blood supply and fills the veins with new life and vital- ity, which in turn rebuild the waste tissue throughout the system. You should begin at once to take S. S. S., which will do so much in putting the system back into a vigorous, healthy condition. The blood is the source of life, and upon its con- dition depends the con- dition of the whole body. There can be no robust vitality unless the blood supply is abundant and healthy. You should remember, too, that avoiding disease is large- ly a matter of keeping the system in good condition, so that those who keep their blood Supply pure and strong and vigorous are much less liable to attack. A few bot- tles of S. S. S. will be worth many times its cost as a pre- caution against disease, Those who take S. S. S. can get any desired medical ad- vice without cost by writing to Chief Medical Adviser, 180 Swift Laborat Go ‘ory, Atlanta, b
