Isn’t, it worth while, instead, to

Probably the. best and first thing
to do is to make sure you are in

go you are exposed to influenza.
As long as you are really well, the
red corpuscles of your blood fight
off and defeat disease germs. But
wlhmi you are tired and run down,
when you feel all right except that
you haven’t much energy or en

too, and you are an easy victim.
Pepto Maugan has become fam
