Rebuilding Health
After Any Illness
Getting Well Means Gaining
Strength-A Wholesome
Tonic

The getting-well stage of grip,
pneumonia or other illness is the
most dangerous of all because the
body, weakened by the disease, is
wide open to attacks of other lurk-
ing germs.
That is why all the organs of the
body must be kept in their best
working order, not only to drive out
the poison left by the disease, but
that the patient shall regain strength
as soon as possible to avoid further
attacks resulting from the poisons
in the system.
AS a means toward good health
after any illness Father Johns Medi-
cine builds up the body because it is
all pure, wholesome nourishment
and free from opium, morphine,
chloroform or other poisonous
drugs or alcohol. Father Johns
Medicine has had sixty years sue
cess for colds and throat troubles,
coughs and sore throats, and as a
tonic and body builder.
