Mildred Louise Talk of Interest to
Women

Mildred Louise Talk of Interest to
! Women.
AS health is first aid to beauty this
story, told by Mildred Louise, beauty
specialist, of Boston, Mass, is of I'M
usual interest.
Il can recommend no better hea'
glver than tonoline," said Mildred
Louise.
! Il was for many months a victim of
stomach trouble and nervousness I had
suffered terribly from pains that fol
lowed eating. Headaches also would
add to my worries. Poor digestion f.
naliy brought on nervousness.
Relief came, however, when I took the
advice of several women who said, ''Take
tonoline'
"Not long after I started the tonoline
treatment, my patrons began to remind
me of the improvement in my condi-
ton. And because health is the=quickest
way to beauty, the improvement was
particularly noticeable in my face.
What tonoline really did for me I
cannot say. [ am so grateful that
am very willing to recommend tonoline
publicly"
Tonoline is a purely vegetable prep
aratlon whoch goes to the seat of COM

bles, catarrhal affections of the mucous
membranes, liver ailments and impmi-
ties of the blood-and quickly restores

planned daily to many people at ]. A

Notice AS tonoline is a wonderful
flesh builder it should not be taken by
any one not wishing to increase his
weight ten pounds or more. Although
many reports are received from those
who have been benefited by tonoline in
