feeble stomachs who. having tried

physical culture stunts and rub-on
creams, resign themselves to lifelong
skinniness and think nothing will
make them fat. Yet their case is not
hopeless. a recently discovered re-
generGtiIe force makes fat grow
after years of thinness, and is also
unequaled for repairing the waste Of
sickness or faulty digestion and for
strengthening the nerves: This re-
markable discovery is called Sargol.

Is the production of a story that leaves

OF late years this whole attitude

Legislation has been enacted In most
of the States of the Union to pro-

members of society.
Nowadays, the medical profession
is frequently called upon to advise
in cases which formerly were dealt
with by discipline. The pendulum

IN his address opening the big
