Swollen Neck Glands.

When Swollen glands appear in

children and young people of either

usully the cause OF the trouble.
That bacillus can attack any gland
in the body, but is especially likely
to attack the glands of the neck.

the only symptom of tuberculous
glands is the swell n, which may

The great thing in keeping grapes
fresh is to keep them from the dry

on each side OF the twig that bears
them. and to each end of this stalk
