committee knew that he was holding

methods, showing that all his stock
deals were protected by the New

You cannot get fat, no matter how
much you eat, unless your digestive
organs assimilate the fatmaking ele-

them out through the body as waste
What is needed is means of gent
ly urging the assimilative functions
Of the stomach and intestines to abb
sorb the oils and fats and hand them
over to the blood, where they may
reach the starved, shrunken, rundown
tissues and build them up. The thin
persons body Is like dry sponge
eager and hungry for the fatty mater
ials of which 1t is being deprived by
the failure OF the alimentary canal to
take them from the food. The best
way to overcome this sinful waste of
flesh building elements and to stop
the leakage OF fats is to use Sargol,
the recently discovered regenerative
force that is recommended so highly
by physicians here and abroad. Take
a little SargoI tablet with every meal
and notice how quickly your cheeks
