What an@mia is, how to recognize it
and the value of the tonic treatment

be known by the mother of every grow
ing girl. An@mia is simply lack of
blood. 1t is one of the most common
and dangerous diseases with which
growing girls suffer. 1t is common be-
cause the blood so often becomes i'm
poverished during development, when
girls are too frequently allowed to over
study, overwOrk and suffer from lack of
exercise.
