DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLE
Why Some Are Fat While Oth3TS Are
Lean.
THIS IS VERY INTERESTING
No Matter to Which Class You May
Belong You Need to Know
What Follows.

What makes some peopls plump and
heshy and others thin and bonyP Is
the human body run and shaped in an
invisible mould2 And whatstrange eff
fects this difference produces. Beauty
always demands curyes-it al
lows angles. A oma may be thin
and graceful but not thin and beauti-
full. With men the question of flesh,
nrtistically speaking. is of less impor-
lance; yet it may he of a great conse-
quence in other respects. To much fat
is a burden-too little is also n disad-
vantage. How can we strike the gol.
den mean2 if, indeed. we u strike it
Mt all. With the Turks fat il the stand
ard 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. There Is a vast num-
Der of gaunt. pale. thin people; people
manifestly under the proper size and
weight. Many of them are actually
emaciated yet not markedly suffering
from recognizable disease. Most of
than eat heartily-some OF them vora-
ciously. Still they remain thin ONE
times repulsivsly so. Commonly they
are very toucAY and sensitive. They
have nerves; they are full OF nerves
They catch cold easily; they are upset
by %triles. they lack force and courage.

Of disease. and fall in multitudes before
any epidemic, They provide eonsump-

Now, if the eat why don't they grow
heshy2 Why do they continue pale,
thin and feeble2 Because they do not
digest and assimilate their food. In
deed their meals more often work
harm than good. The torpid and
disordered stomach cannot do the work
imposed on it. The contents ferment
and putrefy and scatter poisonous acids
all through the body. setting up govt.
rheumatism, bronchitis, consumption
and profound nervous maladies. The
system grows feverish. Often thsro is
nausea and vomiting; a sour fluid rises
into the throat; there is distress after
eating, deafness and distention Of the

and variable nervous affections.
Nature needs help. So much ia plain,
But how can we help her7 We must
do her work for a short time. We must
supply the body with some perfect food
which will not require any digestive
labor ON the stomach. Can we do thatf
Until recently this auxiliary was
sought among oils and other fatty pro.
ducts, especially cod liver oil. But
these things failed for the reason that
they are incapable of forming real and
solid tissues. The false flesh they pro.
duce melts away more quickly than it
comes. 1t gives no strength. no
warmth. Millions of thin. pale, amaze
mic, consumptive persons remember
the the delusive hopes Of recovery they
were led to indulge by the advertise
ments of these fat and oil compounds
or emulsions; and how their air castles
faded into gray disappointment.
No, the fats and oils won't do. Elk.
p~erience proves that. The only relia-

This is wonderfully done by the new

an increase Of vitality, vigor and
weight is felt at once, and the symp-
toms of the previous depressed, devita-
lized state pass away.
Yet Paskola while q true food, needs
to be used for a short time only. Ii
gives nature power to put herself to
rights and then its work is done. The
point ia that it soon enables the stom.
ach to digest any food. even strong
meats. Then tho patient may follow
his appetite and consult his palate
alone.
Under the nourishing power of Pas.
kola the hectic flesh soon leaves the
consumptive cheek. the skin assume
the hue of health. the night sweals
cease, the cough dies away. and thu
emaciation is lost under o coating
solid, warm and normal flesh.
Physicians already report brilliant
results produced by Paskola in the di.
gest torpor characteristic OF all febrilC
diseases, and employ it in place of slim
ulants-the ola treatment. The pa
TENTS stomach at once absorbs Paskola
which keeps up strength until the di'
sease is vapqulshed. Its usefulness IL
this direction is beyond estimate.
OF late years. pale, thin people, OF
both sexes, have come to be an increase
ing majority in this country. Young
persons grow tall and slender, without
breadth or stamina, and perish as fast
AZ they grow. The statistics Of tn,
throat and lung hospitals tell the story
of their fate. They are born witt
brains and nerves, but without thu

II competent digestive system. Tn
doctors keep them going Oil stimulants
for q while and they die.
1t is all such as these that Paskola i
destined to save. They don't nee,
medicines nor travel, nor change o
scene. They need food and the power
to digest and appropriate 1t to tn,
hody's constont needs. That powe.
Paskols gives.
