CRITICISM OF
A "FAT" STORY

We were criticized for telling fat people
to tender" seventy-five cents to their
druggists for a large case of Marmola
Tablets. Several wrote in saying the use
of the word tender was incorrect, that
tender" in suck a connection raised the
impression the druggist might refuse sew
enty-five cents as insufficient.
Now, isn't that odd? few weeks ago
seventy five cents was rendered to a
broadway druggist and he did refuse 1t.
That is, he said he ha Marmola Tab
lets, whereas he did have seven cases.
But the wholesale house was closed, 1t
being on Saturday and he had to pre-
varicate to protect his regular customers,
who absorbed those seven cases later in
the day.
This elegant pharmaceutical adaptation
OF that famous, fashionable fat reducer,
the Marmola Prescription wiz, y OF.
Marmola. q Fl. Elk. Cascara Aromat-
ic, AZ W. Peppermint Water). is certain
ly having a remarkable vogue. Millions
of cases of tablets are sold yearly and
their fame grows This is doubtless be-
cause of their harmlessness (guara nteed
by the Marmola Co.. SOL Woodward ave-,
Detroit, Mich.). and sure ability to re-
move ten to sixteen ounces of fat mot
flesh) day without Inconvenience,
bother. need for exercising or Interference
