THE FATNESS OF HEALTH.
Samose Fills Out the Curves and
Makes Thin People Fat.

If you are thin, your health is not
what it should be. If you are losing
weight steadily, there is something
wrong that should be attended to at
once. You cannot be healthy and
strong il you are too thin.
Perfect health and good, solid,
beautiful flesh can come through the
use of Samose, the remarkable flesh
former.
Samose is not advertised as drug
or a stimulant; it is a scientific fat
tener that restores thin people to a
normal condition of good healthy
flesh.
These statesments are confirmed
by McNair Bros offer to refund the
money to anyone buying and using
Samose who who does not gain in
weight as promised. The risk is all
theirs. The thin and scrawny can
buy Samose at McNair Bros drug
store with the knowledge that If it
is not successful il will cost absolute
ly nothing.
