| =HOW TO GET WELL IF YOU HAVE CONSUMPTION= |
| |
| If you or any one in your family have consumption, you must obey |
| the following rules if you wish to get well: |
| |
| =DON'T= waste your money on patent medicines or advertised |
| cures for consumption, but go to a doctor or dispensary |
| (see last page). If you go in time, you can be cured; if |
| you wait, it may be too late. |

| |

| possible, not in the same room. |

| in the fresh air and in the sunlight as much as possible.= |
| |
| =KEEP= your windows open winter and summer, day and night. |
| |
| =IF= properly wrapped up you will not catch cold. |
| |
| =GO= to a sanatorium while you can and before it is too |
| late. |
| |
| =The careful and clean consumptive is not dangerous to those |
| with whom he lives and works.= |
| |
| =Don't give consumption to others.= |
