New York, N. r.; Doctors who are
specialists in women's ailments
have now discovered that several
days before a woman's period her
system often stores up an abnor-
NAL accumulation of water-from
2 to z lbs. This causes body tissues
to swell and results in a sudden
gain of weight and abdominal
pufiness. It also causes breast
soreness, headache, depression,
nervous tension and irritability.
Having discovered this cause Of
women's suffering, science has de-
veloped astonishing medical help
