Thcre ls, perhaps, no one thing that

shows the passing of our youth so much as thc horrible tendency of some of us to put ou too much weight, nfter we have reached the age of 25 to 30. However young our face may appear, our figures “give us away.”

The cause of this over-stoutness is

that our stomachs convert the food wo cat into fat because there is not enough oxygen in the blood to produce a prop-_ er combustion to destroy tho fatty tis. suo. To reduce your weight go tou- good' druggist and get ,oil ofiorlleuo in capsule form, and take one `aftor each meal. lt is sold in original sealed pack- ages. Oil of orlleno taken at mal times g‘ivcs you all the benefit of thc food you eat, and at the same time dissolves the fatty tissue from any part of the body where there is exces- sive fat. ln this way many have re- duced their weight at the rate of about a lb. a day, and no flabblness is left.
