HOW TO REGAIN HEALTH AT HOME A Sane, Natural Treatment. e all know that rest, recreation and proper diet will correct most ilis, but circumstances will not always permit threwing down one's dalily cares for such expensive luxuries as a trip away—even if one's health does require’ it. In such cases BIOPLASM (Bower) is of inestimable value, for it requires neither a change of climate ner giving up the usual daily routine. BIOPLASM bhas no competitor *n therapeutics, because it occupies = new field and is buiit en the new physiology. It cures permanently be- cause it cures naturally—physiologi- cally—as nature cures. BIOPLASM reaches the seat of trouble—the primary cells. It pre- pares for elimination all lurking pois- ons caused by stagnant waste tissues, rejuvenates the peisoned and intoxi- cated white blood cells, in order that they may resume their natural task of driving into the ®owels for evic- tion all disease-breeding germs. In healthy blood, these wandering cells are constantly moving about, at- tacking all enemies with a precision that all germs of disease must vanish. Keep up 8 healthy blood circula- tion and you will be immune from taking cold as well as disease. BIO- PLASM will accomplish these results thoroughly and quickly. It is abso- lutely harmless as it is free from all poisonous elements. No matter what your ailment might be, try BIOPLASM. The Lee & Os- good Co. of this city will supply you. It comes in tablet form, easy and plleasflnt to take. Price $1.00 per bot- tle, ‘Write us for the history of this re- markable curative agent. It will in- terest you from cover to cover.
