THE FIRST Line OF DEFENSE

= Pure blood is the body's first line of
defense against disease.
Healthy blood contains small
amounts of antitoxins that neutralize
the poisons of invading germs or de-
stroy the germs themselves. That is
why so many people exposed to dis
ease do not contract it. Those whose
blood is weak and therefore lacking in
defensive power are most liable to in
fection. Everybody may observe that
healthy, red-blooded people are less
liable to attacks of cold and the grip
than are pale, bloodless people.
To build up the blood thera is one
remedy that has been household
word for a generation, DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, They tone
up the entire system, make the blood
rich and red, strengthen the nerves,
increase the appetite, put color in the
checks and lips and drive away that
unnatural tired feeling. Plenty of
klnlight, good wholesome food and
yGesh air will do the rest.
