'Worst Woman In World' Is

GLAMOROUS,

PURPLE AFFAIR

"No, thanks," said Mrs. Louise Tunstall. "I don't smoke. Or drink." She added, with a rather bitter little smile: "As a purple woman I suppose I should.”

Mrs. Tunstall, who gave evidence against her husband in a prosecution for theft at the Old Bailey last week, was described as n woman with a tremendous influence over men. She admitted that she had had three husbands, one bigamous marriage, and other lovers, and that she was now living with Mr. Harry Mayo.

in a moment of exasperation after two hours' cross-examination she said, "All right. I

"When I was prosecuted for bigamy the judge said that I was perfectly innocent and my hus baud apologised. I never went back to him. I divorced kim. But of that four-day marriage my baby was born.

Rheumatism Went Too

Thanks to Kruschen

Fot and rheumatism aro twin troubles. As they arise from tho same source, it is only natural that they should yield to the same treat- ment. In the following letter, a woman tells how Kruschen Salts took of 42 lbs. of fat and brought muscular rhcumn-

her relief from tism:-

"Eighteen months ago I weighed 12 stone 4 lbs. I also had rheumatism very badly in the muscles of my arms and got palpitation after exer- cise. I saw Kruschen Salts advertis ed and thought would try them. To-day I weighed D stone 4 lbs, my rheumatism has gone, and I have no palpitation after exercise. No dict- Ing-just a teaspoonful of Kryschen in hot water every morning. I could go on praising Kruschen for ever.”—(Mrs.)" V. R.

Overweight and rheumatism pol- soning almost invariably arise from the same source-a system loaded with unexpelled waste, lice furnace choked with ashes and spat. The alx salts in Kruschen assist the internal organs to throw of each day the wastage and poisons that encumber the system. Then, little by little, that ugly fat goes-elowly, yes, but surely.
