Thin Folks Who
Would Be, Fat
Increase in Washt Ten Pounds or Mere
A Physician's Advice

I'D certainly give most anything to
be able to fat up few pounds and
stay that way" declares every excess
sively thin man or woman. Such re-
sui, is not impossible. despite past
failures. Thin people are victims Of
verts the fatty elements Of food from
being taken up by the blood as they
are when the powers of nutrition. are
normal Instead Of getting into the
blood, all the fat and flesh producing
elements stay in the intestines until
they pass from the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to pro-
the nutritive processes must be artifi-
ciaIly supplied with the power which
nature has denied them. This can best
be accomplished by eating a Sargol
tablet with every meal. Sargol Is q
scientific combination Of six Of the
best strength giving, fat-producing
elements known to the medical pro-
fession. Taken with meals. II mixes
with the food and turns the sugars
ard starches into rich. ripe nourish-
mel mt for the tissues and blood and its
rapid effect is remarkable. Reported
gains from ten to twenty-five Rpunds
IN q single month are by no mems in

Latural and absolutely harmless Sar-
gol is sold by James ODonnell and
other, good druggists everywhere and
every package contains a guarantee
OF weight increase or money back.
CautiOn,-Wki1e Sargol has produc-
ed remarkable results in the treat
ment of nervous indigestion and gen.
eral stomach disorders, 1t should not,
ewing to its remarkable flesh pro-
ducing effect, be used by those who
are not willing to increase their
weight ten pounds or more.-Advt.

Maryland Transfer Man Says
Automobiles Should Carry
Goods Between Cities.

That store door deliveries in Baltimore
and Washington will be furnished at
rates lower than now charged by the
railroads. plus transfer charges in the
two cities, between Baltimore and
Washington. was the statement made
to the members of the shoe section Of
the Retail Merchants Association last
night by Baltimore transfer man, who
offered to put in an automobile line be-
tween the two cities il assured of sup
port for one year. His idea is to put on
two six-ton trucks, which will carry
freight between the two cities and de-
liver the goods in front Of the houses
at which they are wanted.
After hearing the proposition of the
transfer man, the shoe merchants went
into executive session. and afterward
notified him that he should have his
answer by Friday or Saturday at the
latest. There. was some doubt among
the merchants after the first enthusiasm

teaspoonfuls glycerine in " pint cold
water, into which Is then dissolved

quickly rid the skin of lines. black

the flesh firm and smooth.

found perfect. Mix one ounce quin-
zoin with Y pint alcohol and add "
pint cold water. Rub this invigorating
tonic into your scalp twice a week and
the hair-roots will take on a healthy
growth. / know of nothing so prompt
and sure in destroying dandruff and
to remedy itching scalp. This tonic Is
wonderfully stimulating to hair growth
and should be used In connection with
canthrox shampoo. I am writing today
about canthrox also. See answer to

Verify: If you will keep your scalp
clean and plant by occasionally sham
dissolved in cup hot water. the hair
roots will grow strong and vigorous,
resulting in a head of healthy, beauti-
full hair. This canthrox, which is easier
to use than any shampoo Of which
know, creates d wealth of white thick
lather that dissolves all dust and dan

Rinsing leaves the scalp immaculately
clean and the hair dries rapidly, with
