WEIGH YOURSELF BEFORE USING,

Weigh yourself before commencing
to use Samose, the great fiesh-forming
food. The wonderful sale on this
preparation since first introduced In
Wilmington. and the remarkable re-
suits following its use have made n B.
Danforth such enthusiastic believer
in the great value of Samose that they
give their personal guarantee to re-
fund the money If Samose will not
make thin people fat and restore
strength and health to those who
use it.
This is a strong guarantee, but they
have seen so many OF their customers
who few weeks ago looked like walk
ing skeletons become plump and well
solely through the use of Samose that
they feel they cannot say too much to
induce people to try Il.
This marvellous flesh-forming food is
assimilated as soon as it is taken into
the stomach. makes good, rich blood
tones up the weakened system. helps
to assimilate the food and makes the
user plump, we'll and rosy.

\. B. DanfOrth Advise Thin Folks TO
Use Sam0se.
While thinness may not be dis
ease, yet It is In reality a condition
that needs attention. Under the nour-
ishing power of Samose, healthy,
natural flesh will soon be attained.
This remarkable fesh-forming food
strengthens the system generally ana
builds up the fieshy tissues so that
good, natural plumpness results.
An ounce of flesh is better than a
pound of theory. n. B. Danforth be-
lieves that the best possible demon
stration of the fiesh-forming powers OF
Samose is to have It tried by their
customers. and to induce them to use
it. they offer TO pay for the Samose
in case it does not give satisfaction.
No stronger proof than this can be
given Of their faith in it. They have
seen hundreds who we're weak thin
and scrawny become plump, robust,
and strong. solely through the use OF
Samose. Ten days treatment, soc.
