WOMAN CURED AFTER 25 YEARS: SUFFERING

BY POO ON CHINESE HERBS... FIVE IN ONE FAMILY RESTORED TO HEALTH.

43

My boy Edward, aged 17, WIL troubled with a" pain in his aide which caused collapse when he did hard work. We had to see that he was exempted from High School exercises because the pain caused him to drop out. The doctor said that he had appendicitis and that it would be necessary to operate if be expected to be well again. We decided to try Foo Of Chinese Herbs and after a few treatments the boy became well and is now able to do all kinds of hard work without any more pain.

AMERICA'S NEW SLIMMING CLINICS,

[İY" MULTOS" BYAK:]

In New York, where beauty culture is taken sa seriously, there -are two new institutes for the wo- man who wants to improve her appearance. One is a daily clinic at a big hospital, where anyone may go for the sole purpose:"of finding out why they are as fat as they are and how to get rid of some of their weight. This is in charge of one of the great American ex- perts on obesity, who believes that people should decrease their weight rather than allow it to increase after middle age, so that there is less burden on organs which are degenerating.

A few years ago Behavior Charta were as unknown in the average family as was the Schick Test. The Children of psycholo- gists were probably the only ones who enjoyed the benefits of these charts. To-day their value is, be-- ginning to be widely understood. The day-by-day diary is probably the best method. It will require

Obedience Part of the Treatment.

He is absolutely opposed to all those pills and potions which cer- tain doctors have offered American women who are anxious to get thin in a hurry. And if his patients do not obey his injunctions he has no time to bother, farther with them. He wants results-and gets them. And the pampered New Tork woman in obeying him bum

The second place is a new insti-

tute of beauty culture on scientific lines. Here again an expert is in charga, a doctor who has specialis ed on the anatomy of face, and neck and who has lectured on the subject and treated only private. patients, and very few of these, till he was persuaded to open s * facial institute.??

To him, of course, flock all those wealthy seekers of youth, and beauty. He is new, he is expen sive, and he treats as a science the very thing their husbands and brothers have laughed at them for taking seriously. Moreover, he get results, and his band of train- ed assistants, who understand per fectly the muscles, nerve structure, glands, circulatory system, ete, of the face and neck give treatments which differ from those of the or- dinary beauty specialist.

Making Wrinkles Vanish, To make the wrinkles disappear they devote their attention to a muscle at the corner of the mouth which, being in poor and feeble condition, is causing the wrinkles. They give all sorts of facial and neck exercises which must be prac tised every day, and make a special point of stimulating the efreula- tion of face and neck, so that waste skin may be thrown off, since, after 25 or 30 years of age, this function is neglected by the kin itself, which becomes sluggish.
