THE WAY IS SHORT | AND EASY OST women in these days know the | right way to fight fat. Some are told by their physiciargi, some by friends. And for 22 years millions have been reading about Marmola.

All the world over, they who treat obesity now aim to | correct that cause. The method they use is embodied in | Marmola presctiption tablets. People have used them for 22 years—millions of boxes of them. They have told the results to others. So_ the changed conditions scen today are largely due to Marmola. A book in each box of Marmola gives the formula and explains the reasons for | all good results. When you gain new youth and beauty, new health and vigor, you know why. No abnormal exercise or diet is advised. This modern method combats the cause. Marmola has for many years held top place in this field. Anyone who is over-fat should test it, in justice to herself. It is not only the easy but the right way to reduce. Learn how much it means to you. Start now. Marmola prescription tablets are sold by all druggists at $1 a box.
