ENO

When Food Makes No Appeal

A failing appetite is one of Nature's danger signals. It is a warning that all is not well with your digestion-that your system is not freeing itself punctually and thorough- ly of its daily waste. It is this condition which Eno's "Fruit Salt" corrects.

Eno simply flushes and effectively cleanses the whole intestinal tract and so prevents the inner sluggishness which leads to poor appetite and indigestion. That is why Eno first thing every morning will stimulate your keenness for meal times and enable you to enjoy every morsel of your food.

And the result is the unhappy marringe.

A Protection From Vanity. It is of personal value, also, as well as of civic, that you have found your own level, as you do in a family. It is a natural pro- cess for a family to protect its members from swelled head"; it is much more painful when it has to be reduced by an outsider.

The same with vanity: the girls of a big family of boys are the only women in the world who haven't any. They take much the same valuation as their brothers, and good looks do not count as assets.
