It is a mistaken idea that some people are doomed from birth to be fat and that nothing they can do will help them. Read how this typical fat man reduced his girth 12 inches, and got back his normal breathing:—

“Having been troubled with shortness of breath for the past two years, and also stoutness of the abdomen, I was advised by my wife to try Kruschen Salts. So I started to take it, and after the first bottle I found a little relief. So I took another one, and I had better results, and I am now with my third bottle and intend taking more. My breathing is far better than it has been for about three years, and my weight has gone down. Owing to my being so stout in the abdomen I was 180 lbs., and now I am only 161 lbs., and the girth of my stomach now is 42 inches, but was for a long time 54 inches.”—E.A.M.

Taken every morning, Kruschen effects a perfectly natural clearance of undigested food substances and all excessive watery waste matter. Unless this wastage is regularly expelled, Nature stores it up out of the way in the form of ugly fat.

Once Kruschen gets into the blood, just sit back and watch that roll of fat leave the waist, that double chin disappear, those ungainly arms grow thinner, that stout figure become firm. Kruschen is a saline—Not a drug. It is an ideal blend of mineral salts found in the aperient waters of those European Spas which are resorted to by the wealthy for the reduction of excess weight.

Kruschen Salts is obtamable at all Chemists and Stores at 2/6 per bottle.

Minister in Oamaru. You bought this book as recorded in your page, the copy being the property of the late Richard Penfold, a printer at the Oamaru ‘Mail’ and a friend of the poet. No mention was made of Mr. Fraser's association with David McKee Wright, by any of the papers.”

So we have lost the final figure of an interesting trio, David McKee Wright, Fraser and Penfold, all most interesting personalities of the old-time Inky Way in this country.
