THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE
 PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to Increase Strength. NigOr and Nerve Foree.

Judging from the countless prepara- tons and treatments which are con tinually being advertised for the pur- pose of making thin people feshy. de- veioping arms neck and bust. and re- placing dSiY holiows and angles by beauty, there are evidently thousands nf men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness.
 Ihinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there Is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phos- phate known among druggists as bifro- - phosphate. which is inexpensive and is sald by Lee & Osgood and most all - druggists under a guarantee of satis- faction or money back By feeding the nerves directly and by Supplying the body cells with the necessary phos- phorie food elements. bitro- phosphate quickly produces a weleOme trans formation in the appearance: the in crease In weight frequently being as tenishing.
 This increase in weight also carries with it a general improvement in the health. Nervousness. leeplessness and Jack of energy. which nearly always disappear dull eyes become bright. and pale cheeks glow with the bloom Of perfect health.
 CAUTION Although bitro- phosphate is unsurpassed for relieving nervous mess. sleepiessness and general weak ness, it should not. owing to it's re- maFkable flesh growing properties, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh

SAVE YOUR HAIR
 AND BEAUTIFY T | WITH ''DANDERINE"
SPEND A FEW cENTsl RANeRuFF DISAPPEARS AND HAIR STOPS
 COMING OUT
TRY THIS! HAIR GETS BEAuTi. FLU, NAVY AND THICK IN
 FEW MOMENTS

If you care for heavy hair, that giistens with beauty and is radiant with life; has an ineofnparahle soft ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine.
 Just one application doubles the beauty of your hair, besides it imFne- diately disselves every particle of dan druff; you cannot have nice, heavy hair if you have dandruff. This de- struetiye seurf robs the hair of it's lustFe, it's strength and it's very life. and if not overcome it produces 9 feveFishness and itching of the scalp; |; the hair roots famish, loosen and die; then the hair falls out fast
 If your hair has been neglected and is thin. faded, dry. serasgy or toe oily, get a small bottle of Knewiton's Danderine at any drug store or toilet counter for a few cents; apply little as directed, and ten minutes after you will say this was the best investment you ever made.
 We sincerely believe regardless oi everything else advertised, that if you desire soft, iustreus, beautiful hair and lots of it = no dandruf - nc itching scalp and no more falling hair = yey must use KnoWlteH's DaHdeFine. Il eyentual1y-why not now?
