re printed in the book--he has been singularly successful. The
author's treatment is not by "wasting." There is no "sweating"; there are
no stringent restrictions as to eating and drinking; no drastic conditions
of any kind. The medicine prescribed is simple and pleasant, purely
vegetable, and perfectly harmless.

Its action is two-fold; it reduces the abundant fatty tissue at a very
rapid rate--in some cases to the extent of over 1lb. or 2lbs. in
twenty-four hours--usually from 3lbs. to 4lbs. in a week (sometimes

having the slightest pernicious effect even on the most delicate persons,
eliminates the cause of the tendency to corpulence.

to Mr. F. C. Russell, Woburn House, Store Street, Bedford Square, London.
This well-known specialist can claim the unique distinction of having
successfully treated over 10,000 cases of obesity.

cure which is not only not harmful, but extremely vitalising and

steadily on until normal weight is reached.

=No Stringent Dietary.=
=No Drastic Restrictions.=

AN UNFAILING TEST.

The weighing machine will prove that the reduction of fat commences
within 24 hours, the loss of weight varying from 1/2 to 2lb.; even
more than this in severe cases of obesity. The compound forming the
basis of the treatment is purely vegetable, & wholly free from
objectionable ingredients.

Whilst permanently reducing the body to normal weight and size, the
