By following your di rections carefully I have succeeded iu reducing my weight to 158 pounds. This is all very satisfactory and plea sant: but just previous to my com mencing the use of your medicine, I had purchased two suits of line clot,Ires at a high price, and Bud, to my dismay, that they are entirely useless to me now. When I put one of my coals on my friends tell mo it Jocks like a cof fee each on a bean-pole, and when I put tho pants on,—well description fails. My object in writing is to ascer tain whether you have not in connec tion with your medicine business an stablishmeiit where your patrons, similarly situated, could exchange these useless garments for others that would lit. 1 think yo>u ought to have something of tbe kind, as it would be an inducement for many to use the Anti-Fat who now object to using it in consequence of the loss they would sustain in throwing aside valualilegui- ments. Just turn this matter over in your mind. “Clothing Exchange” is what you want in connection with your Anti-Fat business. Yourg truly, George Boyd.
