SHE WAS LOSING HER SLIM FIGURE
Putting on Weight Rapidly Modern fashions are not designed for women with bulging hips, spread- The ing waists, and double chins. well-dressed woman of to-day must have a slim figure. You can improve your figure by following the advice given by the writer of this letter:-
"Some months ago I found to my dismay that I was putting on weight rapidly. Although only 5 ft. 2 ins. in height, I weighed 10 stone 6 lbs. Two months ago I started taking half-a- teaspoonful of Kruschen Salts in a tumbler of hot water each morning, and cut down my taking of excessive sugar and fats. To my great relief, on Saturday morning last I weighed 8 stone 12 lbs., having lost 22 lbs. in two months. The result is marvel- lous. I look and feel in perfect health and my appearance is much more be- coming."(Mrs.) J.R.
Kruschen Salts does not reduce you overnight. But taken regularly for a period of time-with a modified diet and gentle exercise-the dally dose of Kruschen will take away unhealthy flesh and restore your figure to its normal lines.
