be needed promptly You are really
in great danger, because the germ Of
this disease is very catching, and you
are apt to fall an easy victim If you
come in contact with the germs Peo-
pie who are well and strong are not
likely to contract the disease, because
they are able to throw it off. The
common-sense way to keep from TAX
ing 1t is to fortify the system against
attack by building up the constitution.
In other words, to use the old adage,
IAN ounce Of prevention is worth a
pound of cure" And If you are in a
sub-norma1 condition the proper thing
to do is to begin Immediately to build
up your powers of resistance. To ac-
complish this. nothing on earth will
strengthen you and build you up like
Tanlac, the powerful reconstructiye
tonic, which contains the very ele-
ments needed by the system to give
you fighting strength and ward of the
influenza germ.
First of all, Tanlac begins its action
by creating a good, healthy appetite
for wholesome, nourishing food. and
assists every organ of the body to per-
form its natural function, thus helping
to build up health and strength in the
natural way.
Tanlac is also the ideal strengthen
ing tonic for persons who are suffering
from the after effects Of Influenza,
Grippe or Bronchial troubles, and hun
dreds of thousands are using it daily
with the most gratifying results.
In connection with the Tanlac treat
ment, it is necessary to keep the
bowels open by taking Tanlac Laxative
Tablets, samples Of which are included
with every bottle of Tanlac. It is also
important that the everyday rules of
hygiene be observed; that is, sleep in
well-ventilated rooms, get plenty Of
fresh air and exercise and keep away
from crowds.
Tanlac is sold in BogaIusa at the
