PLUMP FOLKS AND THIN FOLKS.
Samose Will Make People Fat
Money Back if 1t Fails"
Says McNair Bros.

The line of beauty is curve.
Women may be thin and graceful,
but not thin and beautiful. There
is vast number of pale, thin,
scrawny people who are all brains
and nerves, but without the strength
and health that accompanies the
standard weight. Good flesh and
perfect health go together. A true
flesh-forming food like Samose is alb
solutely necessary to many people.
This remarkable discovery comes
in tablet form, and when taken after
meals mingles with the food and
helps it to assimilate so that it makes
rich blood and pleasing plumpness.
McNair Bros. have so much conf
dence in this remarkable flesh-form-
ing food and health restorer that
they are willing and glad to allow
any customer to deposit soc with
them and take home box of Samose
with the understanding that if it
does not give marked increase in
good firm flesh the money will be
returned without any question.
