Lost 40 Pounds
With Barcentrate
Mrs. Anna Summers, Box 262,
Garland, Texas, writes as follow*:
“I have used 8 bottles of Barcen-
trate and lost 40 pounds in three
months, without dieting. I now
take Barcentrate as a tonic.”
Yes, Barcentrate does contain
tonic ingredients. That is why
Barcentrate will take off ugly fat,
safely and without starvation diet.
That is why so many people con-
tinue to take Barcentrate as a
. tonic, after they have lost the
weight desired.
If the very first bottle doesn’t
show you the way to take off un-
wanted weight, return the empty
bottle for your money back.
Get Barcentrate at any Texas
druggist.

just making a living that mak-
ing a living is the salt but mak-

own life as all of life and the
smartest thing one can do is
accept others as a vital part of
living.
