PLUMP PEOPLE AND THIN ONES.
What Makes the Difference?

shaped In an invisible mould2 And what strange
effects this difference produces. Beauty always de-
mands curves--it never allows angles woman may
he thin and graceful but thin and beautiful With
men the question of flesh, artttically speakingis
of less Importance; yet it may be of great conse-
quence in other respects. Too much fat is a bur-
den-too little is also a serious disadvantage. How
can we strike the golden mean? If. indeed, we can
strike 1t at all. with the Turks fat is the standard
of beauty. and with all nations a reasonable amount
of it is the measure of health-in animals and in
men. But the tendency seems to be the wrong way
just now. 1leie is vast number OF gaunt, pale
thin people; people manifestly under their proper
size and weight. Many of them are actually mac
ated yet not markedly suffering from recognizable
disease Most of them eat heartily-some of them
voraciously. Still they remain thin-sometmes re-
pulsively So Commonly they also very touchy
and sensitive. They have nerves. they are full Of
nerves. They catch cold easily; they upset by
trihes; they lack force and courage. While not
necessarily III at any particular time they are the
ready victims of any disease, and fall in multi
tudes before any epidemic. They provide consump-
ton with most of its subjects.
Now, If they eat why don't they grow feshyS Why
do they continue pale, thin and feeble? Because
hey do not digest and assmilate their food. In
d eed, their meals often work harm than good.
The torpid and ,disordered stomach cannot do the
work imposed upon it, The contents ferment and
putrefy and scatter poisonous acids all through the
ody, setting up govt rheumatism, bronchitis, con-
SUI mpton and profound nervous maadies. The sys-
TEN grows feversh. Often there is nausea and
vomiting; sour aud rises into the throat there is
dist after eating deafness and dstention of the
alb omen, gddiness, bad breath, hot Pushes fol-
lowed by creeping chills; yellow eyes and skin;
languor and WEAKNESS not relieved by rest; aching
of the back and limbs; great hunger alternating
with loathing of food; anxiety and mental depres-
sion; shortness of breath, and variable nervous af
fectons.
| Nature needs help So much is plain. But how
can we help her? We must do her work for her for
a time. We must supply the body with some per-
feet food which will not require any digestive labor
on the part of the stomach. Can we do that?
Until recently this auxiliary was sought among
oils and other fatty products, especially cod liver
oil. But these things failed for the reason that they
are incapable of forming real and solid tissue The
false flesh they produce melts away more quickly
than it comes 1t gives strength, no warmth.
Millions of thin, pale, anemc, sonsumptve persons
remember the delusive hopes of recovery they were
led to indulge by the advertisements of these fat
and-oil compounds or emulsons; and how these air
castles faded into gray dsappontments.
No; the fats and oils won't do. Experience proves
that The only reliable remedy is not drug but a
| frtits rich in ats
and pre.dgested so TO require for the present no
d,gestre action; food capable of being al snee alb
sorbed into the blood and building up the body
without putting a strain the enfeebed digestive
organs.
This is wonderfully done by the new preparation
called Paskola which is made On the correct scen-
tifc theory. When eaten for it is food, not
drug) it Immediately becomes hesh-buding, life
giving element in the blood. An increase of vital
ity vgor and weight is felt at once and the symp-
toms of the previous depressed devitalized state
pass away
Yet Paskola while a true food needs to be used
for short time only 1t gives Nature power to put
herself to rights and then its work is done The
point is that it enables the stomach to digest
am food even strong meats. Then the patient
may follow his appetite and consult his palate alone
Under the nourishing power of Paskola the hectic
flush soon leaves the consumptive's cheek the skin
assumes the hue of health, the night sweats cease,
the cough dies away and the emaciation is lost I'M
der a coating of solid, warm and normal flesh,
Physicians already report brilliant results pro-
duced by Paskoa in the digestive torpor character
istic Of all febre diseases and employ it in the
place of stmulants- the old treatment The pa
TENTS stomach at absorbs Paskola' which
keeps up his strength until the disease is van
ouished Its usefulness in this direction is beyond
estimate.

why should multtudes of men and wome. eithe
die young or be nyalds all their days? Once thu

ward all who set foot upon it.
