Thinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than Is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bitro-phosphate, which is inexpensive and is sold by most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, phate quickly produces a welcome transformation in the appearance; the increase in weight frequently being astonishing. This increase In weight also carries with it a general improvement in the health.

Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness, soon disaBHear, dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. CAUTION: Although bitro-phos- phate is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness, sleeplessness and general weakness, it should not. owing to its remarkable flesh-grow ing properties, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on WIfiM 01 Mary IMacLaren is a young woman who sprang into fame over night by her splendid work in production. and her subsequent work has put her in the front rank of screen stars.
