HE WAS AS ROUND AS A BARREL
Protruding Stomach Made Him Look Deformed
Excess fat is unhealthy and un- pleasant-for both men and women. It should be got rid of whenever it appears, whether early in life or late. This man, for all his three score years and ten, determined to reduce his weight. Read how he succceded;-...
"A few years ago I felt I wo almost finished. I was an round as a |barrel, for I am not very tall, and with my protruding stomach I looked deformed. My weight was 15 stone 10 lbs., and on top of it all, I suffered so badly with rhoumalism that I was no longer able to work. I started taking Kruschen Balts, and now both rheumatism and fat bave disappear- My weight is now 13 stone 8 lbs. I can dig my garden, and do my own | work, in spite of my 70 years."---V.R.
