Easy Fat Reduction

When buttermilk and gymnastics
were the only known cures for over
fairness many people preferred TO stay
fat--dreading the remedy worse than
the disease.
Now these two grim lions on the
road to slimness have been overcome.
and the loss OF 20 to 50 pounds has
become very safe and pleasant af-
fair. You can eat and drink to be
merry and lazy and still lose 10 to l6
ounces of useless fat daily. Folks with
double chins and stout abdomens can
lose them in a month and yet not
strain. bother or deny themselves a
single blessed thing. II does not cost
much. either-any druggist will fix you
up-and there is no waiting; results
begin when you do.
Take teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime of this simple. harm
less mixture: One-half ounce Mar
mola. one-half ounce Fluid Extract
cascara Aromatic. and three and
one-half ounces Peppermint Water.
and You will strip off evenly. with
out wrinkling. all the useless fat that
now annoys and Furnishes you.
