ARE YOU A
TARGET @
INFLUENZA
1t Hits Listless, Rundown People
First-Their Blood Is Thin.
Germs Everywhere In Epidemic
Be Prepared-Strengthen and Build
Up Your Blood with Pepto-
Mangan.

If it is true that you are not feeling
your best-if you have that Railways
tired feeling and no interest or en-
thusiasm-then you should be careful
of the influenza.
1t is thin-blooded, anemic people
that disease strikes first. The fact
that you have had a very few serious
Illnesses has nothing to do with it. Ev-
eryone gets rundown occasionally
and when they do, the blood is in no
condition to fight off disease germs,
because it has not enough red
IS. 1t is the red corpuscles of the
blood that fight disease and save you
from sickness.
You simply can't afford to take
chances when influenza is striking
down thousands everywhere. Fortify
your blood-build it up with the
pleasant tonic, Pepto-Mangan.
And should you be just recover-
ing from Influenza, you need Pepto-
Mangan because your blood has ex-
lausted its strength. Pepto-Mangan
will help build you up.
Pepto-Mangan is widely and heart
" endorsed by physicians. It is eff
ective and easy to take. Comes in
either liuqid Or tablet form. No diff
erence in medicinal properties.
Sold at drug store But be sure
Oh get the genuine Pepto-Mangan-
'Gude'ss'' Ask for it by the name and
be sure the full name is on the pack
