Fat Man Made Happy-Loses OF lbs.
PRATTvILLE, Ala, July 10th, 1878.

BOTANIC MEDICINE Co., Buffalo, N. Y:
Gentlemen About three mo nths ago | con-.
menced using your "Auti-Fat" at which time
my weight was 219 pounds. By following your
directions carefully, have succeeded in reduc-
log my weight to 15S pounds This is all very
satisfactory and pleasant; but just previous 10
my commencing the use OF your medicine
had purchased two suits of fine clothes at
high price, and End, to my dismay, that they
are entirely useless to me uow. When 1 put
one OF my coats on, my friends tell me it looks
like coffee sack on bean-pole, and when L
put the pants Orwell, description fails. My
object ia writing is to ascertain whether you
have not, ia connection with your medicine
business, an establishment where your patrons,
similarly situated, could exchange these useless
garments for others that would fit. think
you ought TO have something of the kind, as it
would be an Indictment for many to use the
Anti-Fat, who now object to using it, in conse-
queuce of the loss they would sustain in throw
ing aside valu able garments Just turn this
matter over in your mind. A Clothing Ex-
change" is what you want in connection with
your Anti-Fat business
Yours truly, GEORGE BOYD.

They will not endure much watering until
once they make fresh roots, and as soon as
lifted are better to have their flower spikes
staked, whether kept in pots or planted on
greenhouse benches. Tender plants, such as
Bouvardias, should be lifted before there is
any danger of frost, as they are so easily in
iured. Harder plants should be left as long
as possible, Roses unless wanted for early
Towering, are better left until severe frost
sets in; the wood gets ripper and in better
condition for being wintered in cold frames.
