THIN PEOPLE

Thin, scrawny, heshless people are usually
nervous, irritable, bilious and dyspeptic. Every
change of weather affects them; if they happen
to eat or drink anything containing disease
germs, it develops at once, and they are the
first subjects of any contagious disease coming
in the neighborhood. Their life is continual
worry in their efforts to avoid exposure to
damp and malarious atmosphere. People can

in the number of savings-bank depositors,
