KEEPS ONE IMMUNE ! { Infection caa get no hold in the body FROM COLDS AS - WELL AS DISEASE Negligence and indifference to the dralnage organs (kidneys, liver, bow- els, etc.) of ihe human system are the cause of disease. The poisonous, worn- | out tissues are permitted to accumu- late in these organs, thereby prevent- ing the organs to resist disease. The best remedy Is to keep the sys- tem under the influence of BIOPLASM (Bower)—a strictly ethical, non-sti: ulating, non-poisonous preparatign, which drives out of the system all disturbing elements and enables the starving nerve cells to receive normal nurition. While under the influence of BIO- PLASM (Bower) one will not take cold. because the persistent guardians (the white cells of the blood) benumb and destroy the body poisons and compel their elimination through tne bowels. One physician wrote: “Bioplasm Contractors and Gwners should get our prices for TIN, COPPER and GALVANIZED WORK before plac- ing your orders. PIPING FOR STEAM HEATING Large stock of Miil Supplies always on hand Speciaity of HONEYWELL Hot Water Heating (Bower) Is better than quarantine—in a case of scarlet fever in a family of poorly nourished children, the patient and entire family were given BIO- PLASM. The sick one got well and the others remained well—in fact, got in better health. It's the best kind of HEALTH INSURANCE.” An occasional week or ten days’ BIOPLASM .reat- ment will prevent catching colds BIOPLASM (Bower) has been sold exclusive on doctors’ prescriptions for many years. However, arrange- ments have been made with The Lee & Oszood Co. of this and other Yeputabie druggists to supply the pub- lic 8irec.. BIOPLASM (Bower) is soid in tablet form at $1.00 per bottie.
