THE AUGUSTA HERALD HOW TO 6AIN HEALTHY FLESH Alexander Drug Company Adviee Uae of Samose While thinness may not be a dis ease, yet It is in reality a condition that needs attention. Under the nourishing power of Samose healthy, natural flesh will soon be attained. This remarkable flesh-forming food i strengthens the system generally and j builds up the fleshy tissues so that good, natural plumpness results. On ounce of flesh is better than a ! pound of theory. Alexander Drug Co. believe that the best possible de monstration of the flesh forming pow i et-s of Samose is to have it tried by l their customers, and to induce them jto use it. They offer to pay for the Samose in case it does not give sat isfaction. No stronger proof than this can be given of their faith in It. I They have seen hundreds who were weak, thin, and scrawny, become | plump, robust and strong, solely j through the use of Samose. If you are thin or in poor health, ’ take advantage of this offe-. Yon run no risk whatever, and the chances are 98 out of 100 that you will notice a gain in weight after us ing Samose for a week or ten aavs. Sent post paid on receipt of price, 50 cents. —it ■ I SAM HAMMOND HAD LOT OF PHONEY MONEY Well Known Negro Char acter Escaped When Po lice Raided Crap Game.

When a simple change of diet bringß back health and happiness the story is briefly told. A lady of Spring- Held, 111., says: "After being afflicted for years with nervousness and heart trouble, I received a shock four years ago that left me In such a condition that my life was despaired of. “I could -get no relief from doctors nor from the numberless heart and nerve remedies l tried, because I did n't know that coffee was dally put | ting me back mote than the doctors ! could put me ahead. ' Finally at the request of a friend I left off coffee and bpgßn the use of Postum and against my convictions 1 gradually Imp-oved In health until for the past 6 or 8 months I have been tlß'relv free from nervousness and those terrible sinking, weakening spells of heart trouble. My troubles all came from the use lof coffee which I had drunk from childhood and yet they disappeared ■ when I quit coffee and took up the ! use of Postum " Many people marvel at the effecte of leaving off coffee and drinking Pos tum. but there is nothing marvelous about it —only common sense. Coffee is a destroyer—Postum is a rebullder. That's the reason. Look In pkgs. for the famous lit tle book, “The Road to Wellvtlle.” Ever read the above letter? A new one appear* from time to time. They are qenuine, true, and full of human interest.
