"Weariness Without Cause Indicates Disease" * (Author's Name Below) To be tired after exertion is normal, but to be always weary is a sympton of possible future trouble. If this condition persists it is wise to consult your physician. Do not depend on self-treatment or advice from wellmeaning, but inexperienced friends. Most of the .. medicines your physician prescribes can only be dispensed by us in a prescription because their potency and strength requires that they be taken only while under a physician's care. That is why. prescriptions give better results. Home t refitment drugs that you can get without a prescription are usually never as effective.
