Presumably you know, ladies, that the
proper caper nowadays Is lines Curves
are passe. You have got to take on
your fat. This must be done In one
Of three ways. By dieting, by exer-
cises, or by means of Marmola Pre-
seription Tablets. The two former will
keep you busy for months and punish
you pretty severely, the latter will cost
you rs cents at the druggists The tab
lets will not make any altera ton in your
diet necessary, and yet in all proba-
bility, before you have used up one
case, you will be losing from u to is
ounces of fat day. Which method do
you like the best?
II you fancy this pleasant method OF
getting on the fat, see your druggist
instantly, or else write the Marmola Co.,
2S1 Farmer Bldg, Detroit, Mich, TO
send you a case by mail. These cases
contain so generous a quantity OF tab
lets that the treatment Is very econorni-
cal It is, also, quite harmless, for the
Ia ablets are made exactly in accordance
