What to Do to Get Fat
and Increase Weight
The Real Cause of Thinness
Moat people eat from four to six pounds
of sood solil fat-makinc food every dar
and still do not Increase tn weight one
ounn,' while nn the ether hand msny of
the plump, chunky folks eat very lightly
and Veep islam alt th time. It's all bosh
to My that this Is the nature of tho Individ
ual. It lan't- nature's way at alt. '
Moat thin pnpl stay thin because their
powers of assimilation are defective. They
absorb just enough of the food they eat to
maintain life and a sepielsnce ef health
and sitangth. Stufflnr won't help them. A
dosan meals a day won't make them pain
a eincle "stay-thera pound.. All the fi&t
producliur elements of their food Jut stay
there in the Intestine nntll they paas from
the body as waste. What aurh people need
is aomethlnc that 'will prepare these fatty
food ttlementa so that their blood can ab
sorb them and deposit them all about the
body eomethinir. too. that will multiply
their red blood corpuscles and Increase
their blood's carrying power.
for such a condition it is well to recom
mend eating a Sargol tablet with every
meal. Sargo! la not. aa aome believe, a
patented drug, but la simply a careful com
bination cf ix of the moat effective and
powerful assimilative and flesh-building
elementa known to chemistry. It la abso
lutely harmless, yet has been wonderfully
effective and a single tablet eaten wjih each
meal often, eeocrdinar to reports ef users,
has tho effect of tncrcaslnr the weight of a
thin man or woman train three to five
pounds a week. Sargol la sold by all good
drujra;ifts everywhere on a positive guar
antfo of weight increase or money back.
