TO ALL FEVER SUFFERERS
Fever produces poisons. It's these poisons that make you feel hot and cold in turn, that cause violent pains over the eyes and that make you desperately thirsty.
These poisons waste away your
nerve and muscle tissues and weaken your digestive organs. That's why solid foods often make you feel sick. But you must cat to get your strength back or to ward off another attack..
Horlicks, doctors have found, is easily retained by weakened stomachs: It is easy to digest and at the same time poura: quick new strength and vitality into your exhausted body. Get Hor- leks to-day from your store.
