ANTIPON IN HONGKONG.

SPREADING THE FAME OF THE GREAT BRITISH SPECIFIC FOR RAPID FAT-REDUCTION. The burden of obesity is so distressing and ao unprepossessing, and is generally so difficult to get rid of with any degree of permanence, that the introduction to Hongkong of the famous British Specific Antipon, will be welcome in many quarters. The preparation is not unknown here already, but the obstacles: in the way of its supply to the general public were necessarily great. All difficulties are

now removed.

Ero the important discovery of Antipon the treatments usually employed for the reduction of weight included starvation dietary rules, sweating and purging, together with minoral drugging. All these things are weakening in the extreme, and, when obstinately persisted in, ruinous to the constitution. Antipon is diametrically opposed to such drastic methods. To expel the superfluous fatty matter from system is all very well, but the body be amply nourished at the same time. Now Antipon not only rapidly eliminates. the excess of fat, but OVERCOMES THE UNFORTUNATE TENDENCY TO "RUN TO FÁT.” Ample wholesome food therefore becomes Antipon's strength giving ally, and there is taken will bring about a re-development of no need to dread that the extra nourishment
