The guava abstract, highlights
the following facts:
The guava is one of the richest
known natural sources Of Vitamin
c (Guava powder was supplied

Enough guavas can be grown in
Florida to supply Vitamin C for the
entire world. Enough baby food can
be made from guavas now wasted
to supply the babies of the United

food.
The guava freezes without loss of
flavor or vitamins. 1t can be heat

man who is worrying me to death
to get married and 1 am afraid I

friend has found out about us and
he is trying to get me to return.

in love with you. He has good job,

would do well to consider his offer.
You care for him very deeply. There
was no doubt in your mind until the
old friend approached you again.
