The System Needs Help in Repair.
ing the Damage.

When you have finally recov-
cred from the severest stage of the
"fu" you find it almost impos-
sible to get back your strength and
vigor. and for weeks and weeks
you still feel the disabling effects
of the disease.
For the after-efects of the fiji"
pervade the entire system. and
leave the body out of gear. You
are weak and sore and the nervous
system seems thoroughly out of
tune. Often the appetite is badly
impaired, the stomach upset. and
a rundown, good for nothing feel
ing seems to have possession of
the entire body.
You must realize that you are
not entirely out of danger until
your full strength and vitality is
renewed. and the system restored
to such perfect condition that it
will have its former ability to
throw off disease germs that are
always present.
But you cannot hope to regain
your old-time visor and strength
unless you give nature assistance
in repairing the damage that has
been done to your system by this
severe disease. Then. too. you
want to avoid another attack of
the flu, which is another important
reason why you should do every
thing to put the body in such ro-
bust and perfect condition that
you will not fall a victim to the
epidemic which medical authorities
predict will return next winter,
with renewed severity.
New tissue must be supplied to
renew the waste that has taken
place. and this can only be done
