And authorities are urging everyone to take all possible precautions. Just what causes flu has not yet been definitely established by science. But a weakened, run- down condition may make us easier prey to flu—just asit makes us easier prey to colds and other winter ailments. So authorities stress the importance of building up vitality and resistance. Eat nourishing food. Get plenty of rest, fresh air and exercise. Avoid exposure. And start takinga good, fortifying tonic at once.
