THIN, FRAIL
FOLKS NEED
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-PhOsphate to
Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
TO Increase Strength, Nlgor
and Nerve Force

Judging from the countless prepara-
tions and treatments which are con
tinually being advertised for the pur-
pose of making thin people fleshy, de
veloping arms. neck and bust, and re-
placing curved lines Of health and beau
ty, there are evidently thousands OF
men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually
due to starved lines. 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
known among druggists as bitro-phos-
phate, which is inexpensive and is sold
by most all druggists under a guarantee
of satisfaction or money back. By
feeding the nerves directly and by sup
plying the body cells with the necessary
phoAphoric food elements. bitro-phos-
phoric food elements bitro-phosphoric
quickly produces a welcome transfor-
nation in the appearance; the increase
in weight frequently being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries
with it a general improvement in the
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and
lack of energy, which nearly always
accompany excessive thinness soon
disappear. dull eyes become bright, and
pale cheeks glow with the bloom of
perfect health.
CAUTION: Although bitro- -phos-
phate is unsurpassed for relieving ner-
vousness, sleeplessness and general
weakness. it should not, owing to its
remarkable flesh-growing properties. be
used by anyone who does not desire
TO put on flesh.
