The Lesson of the Eagle
and the Weasel
The familiar atory goes that once, when an eagle
pounced upon a weasel and soared with it high into the
air, the weasel fastened its fangs deep into the eagle's breast
and commenced to draw its life-blood. The eagle tried toj(
shake the weasel off, but the weasel hung on until the
eagle fell lifeless to the ground.
There is a moral in this for every sufferer frm coughs
or colds. Don't fat your cough hang on for
every day i$ weakens your lungs and gradually wears
down your system Until serious lung' troubles develop.
