Son, Druggists

II you are getting thin you are
sick although you may not know It,
If you are losing weight steadily,
there is something wrong that needs
looking after. If you have always
been thin it doesn't follow that you
are sick, but you may not be healthy
You cannot be strong If you are
thin.
Try then to be healthy. and plump
it is not difficult If you know how,
The only way to increase the
weight and gain health and flesh is
by using Samose. the standard flesh
forming food and tissue builder. 1t
mingles with the food you eat and
is assimilated so that all the flesh
forming and tissue building ele-
ments of the food are retained in the
system. This explains the great
value of Samose.

BY T. c. II.

With unbounded enthusiasm, with
a spirit of harmony manifest on all
sides and by everybody, together with
that true southern hospitality that per-
meated the very atmosphere every

T. P. A, held in Richmond, Va, be-
came one might ylovefeast and will
long be remembered by those in at
tendance. Never before in the history
of the organization has such conven-
ton been held. From a business
standpoint it was a decided success,
because the reports made by the off,
GERS We're the most satisfactory ever
recorded, and show the association to
be greater in number and richer in
resources. From a social standpoint
man, woman and child in attendance
will rise up and acclaim that the re-
ception and entertainment extended
to the visitors were the finest ever
extended by any T. P. A. body. BY
the hearty welcome that rang true,
and the welcome that only Virginians
know how to extend to a visitor, the
T. p. AS were made to feel that they
were hearty and most genuinely well
coined Post A of Richmond, and the
Virginia division left nothing undone
to mar the pleasure of the convention.
and the national T. p. A. owes them
debt of gratitude that 1t will never
be able to repay. Everything was
carried out with clock-like precision,
and the mighty task of Entertaining
thousand visitors was handled-~FIth

Beginning with the first dasSc4of the
convention the parade was made a
new feature. The several delegations
were each peculiarly dressed or cor

tracted great attention and brought
forth a hearty applause from the thou
