NEWS from your I PHARMACIST / Hoard We have often heard the question: “Is coughing al ways present in tuberculosis of the lungs?” Contrary to wide belief, a person may have tubercu losis of the lungs without any cough. That is why it is so important for all people to have frequent chest X-rays. The slow process of TB can go over a period of years until the disease has spread through all the lung tissue— and the victim be unaware of even being ill. We salute the people who have labored so faithfully over the years to bring mobile X-ray units to practically everyone. This is just another step forward by medical science. Take every available pre caution that guards your health. We live in the “miracle” age of medicine— and a longer, more healthy life is in store for all of us. The next time you need medicine—call us!
