How One Woman Lost 10 lbs. in'a Week “THE HOME OF BETTER VALUES” Mrs. Betty Imedeke of Dayton writes: “I am. using Kruschen to reduce weight—I lost 10 pounds in one week and cannot say too much to recommend it.” To take off fat easily, SAFELY and HARMLESSLY—take one half teaspoonful of Kruschen in a glass of hotVater in the morning before breakfast, go lighter on fattylheats* potatoes, butter, cream and pas tries—it is the safe way to lose unsightly fat and one bottle tluit lasts 4 weeks costs but a trifle. Get it at any drugstore in America. If this first bottle fails to convince you this is the safest way to lose fat—money back. But be sure and get Kruschen Salts—imitations are numerous and you must safeguard your health. —Adv. LEGAL . V. i Citation Of Letters ^ Of Administration Frances Scruggs and Mr. Rembert S.
