Says Fat People
New Rejoice
Testimony Proves ArboIone Safe
Sure Redueer.
Enjoys wide Sale Amongst Ed.
ueated Wealthy Set.

The physician who originated the
Anti-Fat treatment known 10 physi-
clans and druggists as 'fl1 grain
tablets .Arbolone" is being praised
and thanked by scores of women in
the class known as society devotees."
A literary woman in Los Angeles
being so highly elated over her sue
cess In reducing has written a clever
little poem which recites the facts and
expresses deep gratitude as we'll. To
safely and surely reduce from 20 to
so pounds is easily accomplished when
tablets Arbolone are used regularly.
They are not drastic or dangerous,
used as directed. but simply and surely
dissolve the fatty elements and elimi-
nate from tho system. Also, they re-
move the craving for such foods as
are not desirable for fat folks to use.
Herein, Arbolone is superior to all
other anti-fat medicines, as It auto
matically overcomes the abnormal
perverted appetite for starchy foods,
etc. Sold by all druggists in sealed
tubes with full directions.

Of Treatment:

Usually those who continue to
suffer from stubborn ailments arc
those who refuse absolutely to
heed the teachings of medical
science. New discoveries are being
constantly made, and those who
fail TO take advantage Of the won-
defful accomplishments Of men of
science will continue under the
handicap Of disease. y
Your eczema, letter, boils, pim-
pies, acne, scaly skin eruptions,
and burning fiery irritations that
cause so much discomfort by their
terrifying itching. come from a
tiny disease germ In your blood,
which muitiplies by the millions.
These germs find some weak spot
where they can break through the
skin and set up their attack, and
II you have. ever had any form of
these skin disorders, you know
what real torture Is.
The reason these disorders ap.
pear so stubborn and hard to get
rid of, is because they are not
given the proper sort Of treatment.
In other words, the irritation and
itching becomes SO intense that the
patient thinks only OF relieving
this discomfort, instead Of direct
ing his efforts toward getting rid
of the cause OF It all. Hence the
constant use Of lotions, saiyes,
soaps and ointments can make no

Ing oitt,zmen and women wrapped

car yesterday and could not but over:
hear a conversation which have
heard repeated at least hundred
times at different parts Of the city.
Not the same conversation, mind you,
but the same style of it's presentation.
You know it's rather pitiful when you
get right down to it, how each and
every one of us is so wrapped in his
own thoughts and interests that we
cannot listen to other thoughts and
interests and enjoy ourselves.
And in the springtime humanity in
general has SO vastly many plans all
