PREVENTS MALARIA

There is a treatment that prevents
malaria and all those who live in sec
tons where mosquitoes thrive should
be sure to make use of it. You should
consult your physician and get him to
prescribe the prophylactic treatment
and see that every member of the
family takes it. Get rid of the breed
ing places of the mosquitoes and screen
your homes.
