A Message 10 Thin
Weak ScraWny Folks
In Easy Way to Gain 10 to 30 Pounds
Of Solid. Healthy Permanent Flesh.

Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say,
Il cant understand why / do not get
fat. / eat plenty Of good nourishing
food" The reason is just this: You
cannot get fat. no matter how much
YOU eat. unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat-makiug elements of
your food instead Of passing them out
| through the body as waste.
What Is needed is means Of gently
urging the assimilative functions of
the stomach and intestines TO absorb
the oils and fats and hand them over
to the blood, where they may reach
the starved, shrunken, rundown It's
sues and build them IN. The thin
persons body Is like dry sponge
eager and hungry for the fatty mate
rails Of which it Is being deprived by
the failure OF the alimentary canal to
take them from the food A splendid
way OF working to overcome this sim
ful waste Of flesh building elements
and 10 stop leakage of fats Is 10 try
sargol. the famous flesh building agent
that has been so widely sold In America
In recent years, Take a little Sareol
tablet with every meal and see il your
cheeks don't quickly fiji out and rolls
Of firm. healthy flesh form over your
body, covering each bony angle and
projecting point. All good druggists
have Sargol or can get it from their
wholesaler. and will refund vour
money If you are not satisfied with
the gain In weight 1t produces as stat
ed On the guarantee in each large
package, 1t is inexpensive, easy TO
take and highly efficient.
/ NOTE. -sargol is recommended
I only as flesh builder and while ey-
cellent results In cases of nervous
/ Indigestion, etc. have been reported
care should be taken about using i,
