How Thin People
Can Put on Flesh

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 nourishment from your meals
to pay for the cost OF cooking This
is true of thin folks the world over.
Your nutritiye organs, your functions
or assimilation, are probably sadly
out OF gear and need reconstruction
Cut out the foolish foods and funny
sawdust diets. Cut out everything bur
the meals you are eating and eat with
every one of those a single Sargol tab
let In two weeks note the difference.
Let the scales be the Judge. Five to
eight good solid pounds of healthy.
"stay-there" fat may be the net result.
Sargol aims to charge weak, stagnant
blood with millions of fresh new red
blood corpuscles-to give the blood
the carrying power TO deliver every
ounce of fat-making material in your
food to every part of your body Sar-
gol, too, mixes with your food, to pre-
pare it for the blood in an easily as
simulated form Thin people tell how
they have gained all the way from III
to % pounds a month while taking
Sargol and say that the new flesh stays
put. Sargol tablets are careful COM

elements known to chemistry. They
come 40 tablets to package, are
pleasant, harmless and inexpensive.

ture at Fair in Sedalia.
Dairying is fast coming in
rank with the other great wealth
producing industries of Missou-
ri. Every year the COW, the mon
ey-maker and money-saver of
the farm, grows into greater
popularity. Some of the evil
dences Of this growth are the
number of cream cans at the
railroad depots and the high
prices that the dairy cattle are
commanding.
But the surest sign of this de-
velopement will be the big dairy
exhibit at the Missouri State
Fair at Sedalia, September %
to 80, this year. The Missouri
Fair comes the week between
the Southwest Dairy Show at
Kansas City and the National
Show at Waterloo, Iowa, and
many of the splendid show herds
that are entered in those shows
will be seen at Sedalia.
This year two new classes, for
Ayrshire and the Guernsey cat
tie have been added to the pre-
MUM list. There will also be
many special awards for all
classes and the attractive pre-
NUNS insures extensive eXhib-
its of all breeds.
Not only will the exhibitors
have a chance at the big prize
money, but they will also come
in contact with many prospect
i've buyers of pure breed cattle
of all sorts. Many large sales
have resulted from the breeders
having their herds on display at
the Missouri State Fair. The en-
tries in this department close on
September 8, and all who con-

their enteries in as soon as pos
