beauty of form as well as to health. There
is a certain flabbiness which robs good
figure of charm and grace. Those who are
beginning to grow fat rapidly are never
in the pink of condition
But here medical science has slipped in
with a very wonderful remedy-one which
not only restores perfectly moulded form
but renews health and strength. We give
the recipe in full for the benefit of our
stoutish friends: Y OF. Marmola, y or
