Lose Your Fat,
Keep Your Health

Superfluous flesh is not healthy,
neither is it healthy to diet or exer-
else too much for it's removal. The
simplest method known for reducing
the overfat body easily and steadily
is the Marmola Method, tried and en-
dorsed by thousands. Marmola Pre-
scription Tablets contain an exact
dose of the famous Marmola Prescrip-
ton, and are sold by druggists the
world over at one dollar for a case.
They are harmless and leave no wrin-
kles or flabbiness. They are popular
because effective and convenient. Ask
your druggist for them or send price
direct to the Marmola Co., 1912 Wood
ward Ave, Detroit, Mich, and pro-
cure a case.

We give it to our daughter for headache

Black-Draught has.
