Along the streets of Fort Morgan, Colo., nearly everyone you see has a slim, attractive figure. This is no accident. Because hundreds of Fort Morganites have recently reshaped their figures and shed a total of 9,000 pounds-amazingly enough, without starvation diet or strenuous exercise. The inspired coaxing of a young ranch wife, Lydia Brandt, helped do this. For years, Lydia carried a staggering 184 pounds on her small 5-ft. 4-in. frame, and just couldn't seem to lose weight. Then she discovered the Stauffer Home Reducing Plan and soon pared her weight to 122 pounds-all gracefully distributed in the right places. Thrilled with her new figure, Lydia became a Stauffer Home Reducing Plan counsellor and soon began converting her fellow townspeople to this proved way of reducing at home. Today, nearly 400 families in this small community are reshaping their figures with the Stauffer Home Reducing Plan -doing it so suc cessfully that they've lost an estimated 10,000 excess inches to date ! And the "Miracle at Fort Morgan" is begin ning to happen all over America, as thousands embrace this scientific home reducing method. Years ago, B. H. Stauffer realized weight loss 'alone won't make a figure beautiful; exercise is needed to help distribute weight properly and give balanced posture. But strenuous exercise is often undesirable. After long study, he invented a motorized "Magic Couch" to give you essential exercise without lifting a finger. His "Magic Couch" principle has helped more, than 5 million women remake their figures. Use of the Posture-Rest, as the "Magic Couch" is known, coupled with calorie reduc tion, helps restore firm, youthful contours with out starvation diet or strenuous exercise. Unlike methods which take off weight haphazardly, the Stauffer Home Reducing Plan is a complete figure-beautifying program.
