RHEUMATISM GOES WITH EXCESS FAT
Both Banished by Kruschen
When one realises that the -cause of overweight is closely as- sociated with the cause of zhen- matison, it is easy to understand how it is that the two troubles can so easily be overcome by the same remedy.
The experiences told in the fol lowing letter are typical of those ¡of many other sufferers!" "I first started taking Kruschen Salts for rheumatism in my ankle joint. Be- ing rather stout, I thought per haps they would" remedy both troubles, and you cannot realise how surprised I was with the effect. I don't feel anything of my ankles now. And not only that-my weight has reduced 19 os. in just three weeks. I am still reducing, and yet I eat what I like, and I feel a dif- ferent woman in every way."-- (Mrs.) R

Durable Wool When choosing a tweed be sure that it is all wool for in this lies its durability. Pull a few threads. from the piece and try to break them. It should not be too easy, 12 but when you have succeeded the ends should be frayed and hairy. Cotton never frays in this way.
Another test to which you 11 should submit tweeds is to crush them firmly in the hand. If creases remain for
any length of time 10 after this treatment you can be sure that the tweed is not pure wool but contains a proportion of cotton
