HOW TO EAT.
Use Samose Says DIR. Howard CO., and
Put On Good Flesh.

The almost universal interest in
physical culture is the best evidence
that can be offered as to the need Of
simple and scientific method Of
making thin people fat. increasing
strength and restoring health.
Athletics when carried to an eX-
treme often result in straining the
vital organs. How much better it
would be for the average person to
regain health, strength and flesh by
using Samose. This flesh forming
food is assimilated as soon as it enters
the stomach; it helps the organs to
assimilate the food and extract the
flesh forming elements; il builds up
the muscles and rounds out the limbs
into shapely plumpness.
Samose has been so successful in
making thin people fat and restoring
the weak and run down TO strength
and health that DIR. Howard Co. sells
