It fs impossible to contemplate the annals of Greek literature and art without being struck with them, as by far the most extraordinary and brilliant phenomena in the history of the human mind. The very language

All the other tongues that civilized man has spoken are poor and feeble, and barbarous, in comparison with it. Its compass and fiexibility, it's riches and it's powers are altogether unlimited.

Being suddenly called away he had

Thin PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate
TO Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
60 Increase Strength, vigor
End Nerve Forco.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose Of making
thin people 1ieshy, developing 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
excessive thinness.
hinness and weakness are usually due
to starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate han is contained in modern
foods. Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency SO well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gists as bitro-phosphate, which Is mex
~penSive and is sold by most all druggists
under a guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. BY feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the neces-
sary p~hosphoric food elements, bitro-phos-
phate quickly produces a welcome trans
formation in the appearance; the increase
in weight frequently being astonishing,
This increase in weight also carries with
II a general Improvement in the health.
Nervousness, Sleeplessness and lack or
energy, which nearly always accompany
excessive thinness, soon disappear, dun
eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom Of perfect health.
CAUTION: y Although bitro-phosphate
IS unsurpassed for relieving nervousness
sleeplessness and general weakness, 1t
should not, owing to it's remarkable flesh
growing properties, be used by anyone
who does not desire to put on flesh.
