FAT FOLKS FAVOR
Home Mixture That Takes OS the
Fat -Causes no Wrinkle No
Stomach Ilia and Requires
. Neither Dieting Nor
Exercise.
Too much fat is both uncomfort
able and dangerous, but usually fleshy
people prefer to put up with its in
convenience rather than punish them
selves with the tiresome exercising
usually prescribed, or endanger their
health by taking the so-called "cures'
and patent fat "reducers."
This self-sacrifice of comfort and
health to over-abundant fat is entire
ly unnecessary, however, as Mrs,
Luella Bigger tells us there i a home
receipt that is far superior in every
way to anything money will buy for
reducing superfluous flesh. It is said
this simple mixture will take the fat
off of man or woman at the rate of at
least a couple of pounds a week with
out even causing wrinkles. Moreover
it does not disturb the stomach, but
is a good thing for the system, clear
ing away pimples, and, best of all, it
does not interfere with the diet. You
can use it and at the same time eat
whatever you like. This receipt is
as follows: 1-2 ounces Marmola; 1-2
ounce Fluid Extract Cascara Aroma
tic and 31-2 ounces of Syrup Simplex
Get these ingredients at any drug
store, mix them together at home and
take one teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
. Mrs. Bigger, as is well known, is a
famous beauty expert, and whatever
she recommends is sure to be found
eminently satisfactory.
