HOW THIN PEOPLE MAY PUT ON. FLESH. GREAT DISCOVERY BY EMINENT SPECIALIST. Judging from tho countless preparations and treatments which are continually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing the anns, neck, and bust, and replacing uglv hollows and angles by tho soft-curved lines of health and beauty, there aro evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness, and it therefore 1 gives us real pleasure to publish herewith a simple prescription which by correcting faulty metabolism' and stimulating tho activity of certain sluggish vital organs quickly produces a marvellous transformation in tho appearance; the increase in weight frequently averaging from 1 to 5 pounds tho first week, and very rarely less than 2. This increase ill weight also carries with it a general improvement in tho health. Catarrh, dyspepsia, and nervousness, which nearly always accompany excessivo thinness, all gradually disappear; dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with a bloom of perfect health. The prescription, which is absolutely harmless, calls 'for Joz. Tincture Cardamons. Compound 8.P., 2oz. Salrado Compound, 3oz. Elixir Simplex, .and enough water to fill an Boz. bottle,' and can readily be prepared by any chemist. One to two tablespoonfuls should be taken about 20 minutes before each meal. Eat all you want, but 'chew your food thoroughly. ... CAUTION: Although the above prescription is unequalled for relieving nervousness, indigestion, and catarrhal troubles, it should not, owing to its remarkable flesh-growing properties, bo used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh.
