Strength, Weak Nerves, and Gen.

QUICKLY GAINS 10 POUNDS

After suffering for years with run

Glandex Compound. the new animal
gland tonic which is bringing about
so many apparent miracles in the
treatment of rundown conditions in
both young and old.
"NIy principal ailments Mr.. Nc
Clelland continued. were nervous
ness, loss of weight and lack of
strength. I tried almost everything
on the market but nothing seemed to
help me. I couldn't seem to show any
Improvement no matter how I tried.
81 kept losing weight right along.
I could get but little rest nights as I
could sleep only in short, troubled
the time and the least thing would
make me go to pieces.
i'Then about month ago I noticed
an announcement in the papers tell
ing how Glandex Compound was
helping others, so I decided to try 1t
out. Even after the fourth day no
ticed a wonderful improvement My
appetite picked right up and I be-
gan putting on weight. In one month
the scales show an actual increase in
weight of 10 pounds. can sleep fine
now, and am feeling stronger every
day.
Shows Amazing Improvement
"Glandex has made a new man of
me. 1t has given me more confidence
in myself and I can't say enough in
praise of it. 1t certainly has done
me worlds of good"

ONCE SANG SONGS

Fat men are natural-born tenors,
and Roscoe CFatty") Arbuckle. the
famous screen comedian, is no ex-
ception to the rule. In fact, Rotund
Roscoe secured his first start in
things dramatic as a singer on a
California vaudeville circuit. 1t was
his job to furnish the melody that il
Illustrated sentimental and highly
colored slides as they were thrown
upon the screen. THE Fatal Rose Of
Red" "The Curse of an Aching
Heart" and It'll the Sands of the
Desert Grow Cold We're some of the
classics he rendered for the munifi-
cent sum of seventeen dollars a week
life.
Roscoe rolled UP such reputation
as an illustrated songster that he
soon had boosted his honorarium to
fifty per. But being an ambitious
young fellow, he couldn't see much of
a future in his job and he sacrificed
just half that stipend to accept an
opportunity to become rough house
comedian for burlesque show. That
was "Fatty's" Introduction to slap
stick, and he specialized in rapid
fire comedy until his recent contract
with Famous Players Laskyy by ar
rangement with Joseph NJ. Schenek,
made him Paramount star in full
length feature pictures.
