THIN PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to Put
ON Firm, Healthy Flesh and 20 In
crease Strength, Yigor and
Nerve Force

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually being
advertised for the purpose of making thin
people fleshy, developing arms, neck and
bust and replacing ugly holows and angles
BY the soft, curved lines Of health and beau
ty, there are evidently thousands of men
and women who keeply feel their excessive
thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due TO
starved nerves. Our bodies need more phos-
phate than is contained in modern foods.
Physicians claims there is nothing that will
supply this deficiency so well as the or
Ranic phosphate known among druggists as
bitro-phosphate, which il inexpensive and
is sold by most all Druggists under n guar
antee Of satisfaction or money back BY
feeding the nerves directly and by supplying
the body cells with the necessary phosphoric
food elements. bitro- phosphate should pro-
duee a welcome transformation in the APP
pearance; the increase in weight frequently
being astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with it a
general improvement in the health Nervous
ness, sleeplessness and lack Of energy. which
nearly always accompany excessive thinness,
should soon disappear. dull eyes brigl ten
and pale cheek glow with the bloom of per-
feet health.
CAUTION =: While Bitro-phosphate is UNI
for the relief Of nervousness, gen.
eral debility, etc, those taking ii who do not
desire TO put on flesh should use extra care
in avoiding fat-producing foods. ADV.
