This is an invitation that no thin man
or woman can afford to ignore. Wen
| tell you why. We are going to give you
| wonderful discovery that helps digest
| the foods you eat-that puts good, solid
| flesh on people who are thin and under
| weight, no matter what the cause may
be-that makes brain in five hours and
cd i'll foUr-that puts the red cor
puscles in the blood, which every thin
man or woman so sadly needs. How
| can we do this? We will tell you. Sci
| ence has discovered remarkable con-
centrated treatment which increases cell
growth, the very substance of which our
| bodies are made-a treatment which
makes indigestion and other stomach
troubles disappear as IL by magic and
makes an old dyspeptic or a sufferer
from weak nerves or lack OF vitality
feel like a 2-year-old. This new treat
ment, which has proved boon to every
thin person, Is called Sargol. Don't
forget the name-S-A-R-G-O-L
Nothing like 1t has ever been produced
before. 1t is a revelation to women who
have never been able to appear stylish
ir anything they wore because of their
thinness. 1t Is a godsend to every man
who is under weight or is lacking in
nerve force or energy. If you want a
beautiful and well-rounded figure of
symmetrical proportions, of which you
can feel justly proud-if you want
body full of throbbing life and energy,
write The Sargol Company, Six, Her
aid Bldg, Binghamton, N. Y, today and
we will send you, absolutely free, a SOC
box Of Sargol that will prove all we
claim. Take one with every meal, and
in five minutes after you take the first
concentrated tablet of this precious
product it will commence to unfold its
virtues, and 1t has by actual demon
straton often increased the weight at
the rate of one pound a day. But you
say you want proof! Well, here you are.
Here is the statement of those who
have tried-who have been convinced
and who will swear to the virtues of
this marvellous preparation.
REV. GEORGE w. DAVIS says,
II have made a faithful trial of the
Sargol treatment and must say IL has
brought to me new life and vigor. l have
gained twenty pounds and now weigh 40
pounds and, what is better, have gained
the days of my boyhood. It has been the
turning point of my life Ny health is now
fine. don't have to take any medicine at

MRS. A. I. RODENHEISER writes.

What suggestions have you along the lines
Of decoration entertainment, and refresh
ments for a neckwear shower?
I. D. p.
Fall flowers are so pretty at this sea-
sen of the year and SO reasonable that
you could decorate your house with
daElias, astors, cosmos, and ferns. Or
if you take a jaunt out in the country
you could gather armfuls of golden rod
and deck the rooms in a very festive
manner. 1 should suggest that you hide
the various presents of neckwear all
around the house and have the girl
hunt for them. This would add much
fun and an element of surprise to the
shower For refreshments, have some
Kind of salad, rolls. and coffee. In
selecting place carus why not try to
find some old-fashioned pictures in
which the women wear Elizabcthan
ruches and other queer neckwear and
in this way give an appropriate touch
to the neckwear shower.
