GET "HEP"
TO HEALTH
• Isn’t it high time you were
dting something about your
Health? In these important
times, the preservation of Good
Health is really a patriotic duty.
Why not go now to see a good
Physician? Cooperate with him
in a thorough physical check
up. And then heed the sound,
experienced counsel he give;,
you. A little attention now may
save you a lot of trouble, expense
and needless suffering later on.
Certainly, we’ll admit that
!*d like to fill the prescription
your Physician gives you. That’s
why we are in business, you
know. Won’t you remember us?
