GAINING WEIGHT
IS LIKE PUTTING
MONEY IN BANK
When Meals Pay a Profit There
Is No Danger of Physical
Bankruptcy.

Are your meals paying dividends,
or are they plunging you hcadlOng
into physical bankruptcy.
Every meal you eat should give
more than hunger satisfaction. More
blood for veins and more flesh for
bones are what you should have
Some folks will not grow plump.
The more they eat the thinner they
get. Something must be worng. These
people eat plenty of flesh building
food, still they gain very little
strength.
The man who ate and did not get
fat, suggested that it made him poor
to carry it around.
The too slender man or woman
rarely is happy.
Plumpness of the body depends
upon the stomach extracting the fats
from the foods that are eaten. When
the stomach fails at fat making, the
whole system suffers.
Plumpness does not depend upon
the amount of food that is eaten; it
depends upon the amount of food thet
is assimilated by the stomach. In
cases Of extreme slenderness, nine
times out of ten it may be traced to
stomach sluggishness.
Tanlac, the matchless reconstruc-
tive vegetable tonic, ovcrcOmes stOm-
ach weakness. It has increased the
weight of many who were too slender
because 1t is tonic for the system
Tanlac is a tissue builder and consti-
tutional food. Weak, thin, pale blood
less,' nervous, run down men AMI
women grow fat taking Tanlac.
Tanlec now is being introduced in
Leon at Bell & Painters.

the victim. The other day he was
dining in the New Willard cafe when

by and gave Quick a very friendly
greeting. Quick turned to his COM
panions and asked who the gentleman
might be, but none knew him. The
stranger sat down alone and caught
Quick studying his face. Thereupon
he got up and came over and shaking
Quick's hand inquired: How did

Again the waiter came and said:

AS the meal drew to its close the
waiter again appeared and inquired:
