'BITRO : PHOSPHATE BEST THING FOR
 THIN PEOPLE
women Need 1t to Brins Pink Glow Of Health to Pale Cheeks and Fore stall Tel1taIe Lines of Aee- Men Need It to Make Strong,
 Vigorous Bodien and
 Steady Nervex

Judging from the countless prepara- tions and treatments which are contin- ual1y being advertised for the purpose of making thin people heshy. develop ing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their ex- ccssive thinness.
 Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods Physicians. claim there is nothing that will supply this defi- cheney so well as the organic phosphate phate which is inexpensive and is sold by Lee Osgood in Norwich and most all druggists under guarantee of sat istaction or money back By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phos- phorfc food elements, ,~bitro-phosphate should produce a welcome transforrna- ton in the appearance: the increase in weight freauently being astonishing.
 Increase in weight also carries with it a general improvement in the health; Nervousness. sIeeplessness and lack. of energy. which nearly always accom- rary excessive thinness, should soon disappear dull eyes ought to brighten Of perfect health
 CAUTION = Although bftro-phos- phate is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness. sleeplessness and general weakness, if should not. owing to it's tendency to increase weight, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh

Unique Experience
Finding Absent Bro,

Rev. H. P. Guhse with Mrs. Guhse
were over on Long Island last Satur-
day with friends, at Sound suburb.
He met an old friend accidentally. The
latter after exchanging the amenities
of the day asked, "Have you seen your
brother?"
"Why, no, I haven't seen Paul in
five or six years." replied the Palisade
minister.
''Well, he is right here today. just
saw him on the beach little while
ago."
After a little hunt Mr.. Guhse heard
that his brother probably had gone to
Rye Beach across the sound, so he
went straight to the landing where
there was a ferry running to Rye. The
first person he encountered on the boat
was his brother Paul, and they had a
great time that afternoon visiting old
friends, both in Rye and at Harrison
where Rev. Guhse formerly had a
charge. The Palisadians came home
about midnight Saturday.
