Cultivating SHINES

Fat women must take this injunction to
heart. II they want to be in style. for the
new modes will not drape over a fat figure.
The fat has got to come off quickly,
but without harm, of course, and this
means only one thing can be depended
upon. Exercising or dieting is too slow.
The fat woman who wants to wear a form
clinging gown must make an immediate
trip to her druggist and get a case OF
Marnno1a Prescription Tablets. which Will
cost her about rs cents.
Taxing one Of these after each meal and
at bedtime should be enough to bring her
to the 'losing-a-pound-a-day" stage before
even the first case is used up. 1t is hardly
believable that such delightful results can
be obtained without harm and for such a
small sum OF money, but then, fact is
stranger than fiction.
Test tie effect Of these tablets by getting
q case yourself, either from the Marmola
Company, Detroit, Mich, or from any
druggist. They are made in exact accord
ance with the famous Marmola Prescrip-
ton and, consequently. cannot have any
Ill effects.
