Fat put on by indoor life is uin healthy and if nature Is not assisted in throwing it off by increasing the oxygen-carrying power of the blood, a serious case of obesity may result. When you feel that you' are getting too stout, take the matter in hand }t once. Don't liaIt gntil your figure fl become v ioke and your health ruinetd through carrying around a burden of unsightly and unhealthy fat. Spend as much time as you possibly can in the open air; breathe deeply and get from Peoples Drug Stote a box of tassco, take a glass of hot wa ter every morning before breakfast then take tassco after each meal and at bedtime. Weigh yourself every few days and keep up the treatment until you are down to normal. Tassco is absolutely harmless, is pleasant to take, helps the digestion and is designed to in crease the oxygen-carrying power of the blood. Mven a few days' treatment should show a noticeable reduction in weight. There is nothing better for obesity. Iev. 111a.4s 'aled. Pastor S. It.
