How Thin People
Can Put On Flesh
A New Discovery

Thin men and women--that big,
hearty, filling dinner you ate last
night What became of all the fat
producing nourishment it contained?
You haven't gained in weight one ounce
That food passed from your body like
unburned coal through an open CRATE
The material was there, but your food
doesn't work and stick, and the plain
truth is you hardly get enough nour-
ishment from your meals to pay for
the cost of cooking. This is true OF
thin folks the world over. Your nutri-
tive organs. your functions of assimi-
lation, are sadly out of gear and need
reconstruction.
Cut out the foolish foods and funny
sawdust diets. Omit the flesh cream
rub-ons. Cut out everything but the
meals you are eating now and eat with
every one of those a single Sargol tab
let. In two weeks note the differ

Thin People
Can Increase Weight

Thin men and women who would like .
to increase their weight with 10 or a
pounds of healthy stay there" fat
should try eating little Sareol with
their meals for while and note re-
suits. Here Is a good test worth try
ing. First weigh yourself and measure
yourself. Then take Sargol--one tab
let with every meal--for two weeks
Then weigh and measure again. 1T
isn't a question of how you look or
feel or what your friends say and
think. The scales and the tape meas
ure will tell their own story, and most
any thin man or woman can easily add
from five to eight pounds in the first
fourteen days by following this simple
direction And best of all, the new
flesh stays put.
Sargol does not of itself make fat,
but mixing with your food. it turns the
fats, sugars and starches of what you
have eaten. into rich, ripe fat produc-
ing nourishment for the tissues and
blood--prepares it in an easily assimi-
lated form which the blood can readily
accept. All this nourishment now
passes from your body as waste. But
Sargol stops the waste and does it
quickly and makes the fat producing
contents of the very same meals Won

skin and bones. Sarge. is safe. pleasant.
