Hznry Schokphals, foreman Henry Krug Packing company, St. Joseph's, Mo., tines Dr. Thomas' Electric Oil with his ARTIFICIAL DIGESTION. A Scientific Discovery That Is Changing Food To Lite. CAREFULLY EXPLAINED. Why it is That This Food When Taken Into the Stomach Does Not Have To Be Digested. But a short time ago some einine nt scientists made a great discovery. They discovered that fats and oils did not fatten thin people. Everything seems simple after some elss has found it out. If we had thought, we would have remembered that for ages doctors have forbidden starch foods to people who wanted to get thin. It follows they ought to recommend starch foo ls to people who want to get fat. Nobody knows why they didn't do so. Nodody knows why they all didn't do so now. But they are learning. More are re commending it every day. They are beginning to believe iu Paskola, beoause Paskola is a starch food. It has long been known that starch food is the most natural food for man. Of the foui chief chemical divisions of human food, viz : starches, fats, al bumens, aud salts, aiarch is the most important, fats the least important. If we only had starch we could do without fatty food. We would die if we tried to do without starch food. Many people are dying today becauss their digestive organs cannot digest starch food. They eat plenty of starch but they can't digest it. Tney keep thin. They keep getting thinner. There is but one hope for them: Paskola. One reason that Paskola will lely them is because it is a pure starch foo l Another reason is bsc iuso it is a pre digested food. Nothing but starch food will ever make you fat, strong and hearty. Meat r aluminous food merely repairs waste tissue. But even if it were predigested it would not make you fat. Paskola is only a pure starch pre-di- gested food, combined with natural natural vegetable ferments which aid the digestion of other food. Paskola is the only starch food which wilt make a csnfirined thin person fat Paskola creates au appetite for other foods and helps your stomach to digest hem. It also tones ut and gives strength to the feeble stomach. I he old, old notion about fats and oils und fatty foods making a person fat is fast fading away. The most eminent scientists and medical men have long since ceased to believe la it. The rank and hit) of the profession are fast following their example, Lvenif fatty food could make people strong and fat, all the good it would do would be to well people, for it is only well people's stomachs that can stand it. Well people don't need food that will make them fat. They are generally fat already. If they weren't f it, they wouldu t be well It is just the people that need food that will muke them fat whoie stom achs can't digest fatty food. We can't hght nature. Thin sich people have a very general and decided aversion to fats and oils. That ougnt to be suffi cient proof to us that fat is not what tbev want to make them well. Even the thinnest and sickest people like Paskola. Tbey like other starch food too. They probably eat a good deal of starch food. Nature allows thorn to do so. They have no decided aversion to it. This is proof that starch food is a good food. lbe reason that the rood thin people eat does not make tbem fat simply that they do not digest it. 1 hey are sick, they are sick and that is the sickness they suffer from. Most dyspeptics can not even retain starch food on their stomachs. It ferments and forms a noxious gas. Tbey are in the unhappy of needing starch food so badly that they are slowly dying for the want of it, and yet they cannot digest it. The most delicate stomaok can retain Pas kola. The great difference between ordin ary good starch food and Paskola is that Paskola is prs-Iigested. Paskola wonld make i you fat if you hadn't a stomsch With a stomach no matter how sick It may be, Paskola makes yon fat all the quicker. Paskola is super seding Cod Liver Oil, because it is pleasant to the taste and is far more ef fective in its operation.
