In the SpringTime
Any fool knows enough to carry
an umbrella when it rains, but
the wise man is
he who carries
.sone when it is
only cloudy.
Any man will
send for a doctor
when he gets
bedfast, but the
wiser one is he
who adopts
proper measures
- before his ills
become serious. During a hard
winter or the following spring one
feels run-down, tired out, weak
and nervous. Probably you have
suffered from a cold, the Grip or
flu, which has left you thin, weak
and pale. This is the time to put
your system in order. It is time
for house-cleaning.
