# Thin and Nervous

While excessive thinness might be
attributed to various and subtle causes
in different individuals, it is we'll
known fact that the lack OF phos-
phorus in the human system is very
largely responsible for this condition.
1t seems to be well established that
this deficiency in phosphorus may
now be met by the use of Bitro-Phos-
plate. which can be obtained from
any good druggist in convenient tab
let form.
In many instances the assimilation
of this phosphate by the nerve tissue
soon produces welcome change
nerve tension disappears, vigor and
strength replace weakness and lack of
energy and the whole body Loses its
ugly hollows and abrupt angles. be-

health and beauty and the will and
strength to be up and doing.

various banks balances amounting to nearly
100000 were discovered" says the Cincinnati
Enquirer. "Intelligence is at hand that much
money lost in Russia through being left in
tanks which were taken over by the Bolshevists,
who confscated their funds. Inquiry reveals the
fact that after the signing OF the armistice, the
principal members of the committee promptly
resigned and left it's affairs in the hands Of ir-
responsible minor employees. Most astonishing of
all is the discovery that orders limiting advances
for personal expenses were ignored and huge
amounts were paid to attaches and others who
have not yet completely accounted for them'
During the war the American press con-
sta1.tly criticised the committee and sought the
application of remedial methods, so that the ex-
posu:res made year after the signing of the
armhstce emphasize strongly the truth of the
structures that were made many months ago.
Tie Creel activities never appealed to the
American press. They saw real service per-
formed. The investigation Of the expenses of
the committee should be pushed to the limit. The

the truth about the war. Now the public is real
anxious to get information about the committee.
