THIN PEOPLE

Judging from the countless prepara.
tionS and treatments which are contin-
ualy being advertised for the purpose
of making thin people fleshy, develop
ing arms, necks 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.
Thinness and weakness are usually
due to starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contained
In modern foods. Physicians claim
there Is nothing that will supply this
deficiency so well as the organic phos-
phate known among druggists as bitro-
phosphate, 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 supplying the body cells with
the necessary phosphoric food ele-
ments, btro phosphate quickly pro-
duces n welcome transformation in the
appearance; the increase in weight fire..
quently being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries
with it n 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

Oklahoma City Feb. 3.-Delay
in the consideration OF the proposed
graduated land tax amendment
was caused Friday afternoon in the
house by the fact that the Ticer
resolution covering this measure
had not been printed and distribut-
ed The resolution retains its
place on the calendar, however,
and will be taken up today, it
is understood.
Campbell Russell, corporation
commissioner, has linked the grad
uated land tax, which is designed
to put an end to excessive land
holdings by individuals, with the
yitalization OF section l2a-the
school tax amendment-and he has
announced that if the legislaturt
fails. to refer the land tax amend
ment or yitalize the school tan
amendment. he will invoke the ini-
tiativc on both questions.
Just before the time for consider
alton oi the Ticcr resolution was
reached a statement signed by Ti-
Ger, and which supported the meas
urc and assailed excessive land
holdings, was placed on the desks
OF members.

bic men as supervisors over their
children's education.
