 What Makes the Difference?
 What makes some people plump and feshy and others thin and bonyf Is the human body run and shaped in an invisible mouldi And what | strange effects this difference produces. Beauty always demands curves-it never allows angles l A woman may be thin and graceful, but not thin | and beautiful. With men the question of flesh artisticaly speaking, Is of less importance; yet 1t may b, of great consequence in other respects Too much fat Is a burden-too little is also se- rious disadvantage. How can we strike the golden mean, if indeed, we can strike 1t at alls With the Turks fat is the standard of beauty, and with all nations 6 reasonable amount of 1t Is the measure of health-in animals and in men. But the tendency seems to be the wrong way just now. There is c vast number of Raunt, pale, thin people-people manifestly under their prop CT size and weight. Many of them are actually emaciated, yet not markedly suffering from rec ognizabls disease. Most of them eat heartily some of them voraciously. Still they remain thin-sometimesr repulsively so. Commonly they are also very touchy and sensitive. They have nerves; they are full of nerves. They catch cold easily; they upset by trifies; they lack force l and courage. While not necessarily i'll at any
 particular time, they are the ready victims of | any disease, and fall in multitudes before any | epidemic. They provide consumption with most | of it's subjects
 Now, if they eat, why don't they grow feshys Why do they continue pale, thin and feebles Be- | cause they do not digest and assimilate their food. Indeed, their meals more oftsn work harm l than good. The torpid and disordered stomach ! cannot do the work imposed on it. The contents ferment and purify, and scatter poisonous acids | all through the body, setting up gout, rheuma- | tism, bronchitis, consumption and profound ner- vous maladies. The system grows feverish. Often there is nausea an1 vomiting; sour fluid
 rises into the throat; there is distress after eat
 ing, deadness and distention of the abdomen |,
 giddiness, bad breath, ho. fl 1shes folloyed by
 creeping chills; yellow eyes and skin; languor
 and weariness not relieved by rest; aching of the
 back and limbs; great hunger alternating with c
 loathing of food; anxiety and mental depression
 shortness of breath, and variable nervous affec. l tions.
 Nature needs help; so much is plain. But how
 can we help her? We must do her work for hel
 for time We must supply the body with some
 perfect food which will not require any digestive | labor on the part ot the stomach. Can we dc l that?
 Until recently this auxiliary was sought among
 oils and other fatty products, especially cod ivel | oil. But these things failed, for the reason tha
 they are incapable of forming real and solid tis l sue The false 6 ssh they produce melts away mora quickly than it comes. It gives no strength , l no warmth. Millions of thin, pale, anemic, con | sumptive persons remember the delusive hope | of recovery they were led to indulge by the ad 5 1 vertisements of these fat and-oil compounds O emusions; and how these air castles faded int, | gray disappointments.
 No; the fats and oils won't do. Experienc proves that. The only reliable remedy is not 5 drug, but a food prepared from certain fruit 7 rich In starch, and PRE-DIGEsrED so AS TO RE O CURE FOR THE PRESENT NO DIGESTIVE ACTION; ) food capable of being AT ONCE absorbed into tn 3 blcod and building up the body without putin : a strain on the enfeebled digestive organs. : This is wonderfully done by the new prepars tion called Paskola, which is made on the oorrec o l scientific theory. When eaten (for it is Q foot Y l not @ drug) it IMMEDIATELY becomes a flesl buldne lfe-givug element in the blood. A V increase of vitality, vigor and weight Is felt (
 once, and the symptoms of the previous depres
 ed, devitalized state pass away.
 Yet Paskols, while true food, needs to | q used for a short time only. It gives Nature pov CT to put herself to rights, and then it's work ? done. The point is that it soon enables the st | ma fo str
 Then the patient may follow his appetite ar
 GODS alt his palate alone.
 Under the n1urish;ng power of Paskola il ; hectic flush soon leaves the consumptive 8 chee ' ! the skin assumes the hue of health, the nigl ,' sweats cease, the cough dies away, and the em 7 citation is lost under coating of solid, warm i. ! normal flesh.
 - Physicians already report brilliant results pr al duced by Paskola in the digestive torpor chara
 teristic of all febrile diseases, and employ 1t 4, | the place of stimulants-the old treatment II 59 | patients stomach at once absorbs Paskol :. which keeps up his strength until the disease m vanquished. Its usefulness in this direction DO | beyond estimate.
 Fl Of late years pale, thin people, of both sexe SS have come to be an increasing majority in tt -l country. Young persons grow tall and slsndt b9 without breadth or stamina, and perish as ia
 as they grow. The statistics of the throat al
 lung hospitals tell the story of their fate Tn
 are born with brains and nerves, but without Il g most important arrangement of ala compete st | digestive system. The doctors keep them goi
 on stimulants for a while, and then they die
 It Is all such these that Paskola is deatin 'e to save. They don't need medicines, nor tray " nor change of scene. They need food and
 power to digest and appropriate 1t to the bodJ s- onstsnt needs. That power Paskola gives. U. Why should multitudes of men and wom '' either die young or bs inval'ds all their day
 once the reason was-there was no means k | prevent it. Now there is.
 And this new and rational road to health V D reward all who set foot upon 1t.
