' BUSINESS NOTIONS. A LLAN'S ANTI-FAT. A t..._t ..._ A LLAN'S ANTI. FAT. A T LLAN'S ANTI-3TAT. A LLAN'S ANTI-FAT. A LLAN'S ANTI-FAT (Trade Mark l\ "Anti-Fat," registered) is the celebrated American remedy for corpulenoy. 16 is purely vegetable, being a compouud concentrated fluid cxttaci of sea lichens, and ia perfectly harmless. No particular change of diet required. Will reduce a fat person from 2ib to 51b a week. It acts upon the food in the stomach, preventing its conversion iato fat. "Corpulency ia not only a disease of itself, but the harbinger of others," wrote Hippocrates 2000 years ago, and what was truo then ia not less so to-day. The consequences of obesity are often more serious than ia generally supposed. The thick accumulations of fat in the tiasuea mechanically opprets adjacent organs, thereby producing dyspnoea (shortness of breath) and disturbances in tho circulation characterised by palpitation of tho he&rfc, fainting, determination of blood to tho brain, derangements of the stomach, liver, kidneys, uteiua, Ac. in coußequenco of the congestion of the stomach, th&p&iieut b.comes dyspeptic, and is tormented with flatulency, acidity of the stomach, and eructations. The impediments to a free circulation of the blood, and the increased pressure of the masses of fat throughout the (system on the blood-vessels, produce a determination of blood to the brain, whence arisa somnolency, torpor of the mental and phyuioal§ funotions, asid not infrequently apoplexy. Obesifcy is undoubtedly a not infrequent cause of fatty degeneration of the heart and liver. Speaking of the heart, a late author says :— •• Some of the instances of sudden death cf fat people may be reasonably ascribed to a rupture of the organ ia this weakened state." ,fc LLAN'S ANTI- FAT is absolutely harmrk. less. We are daily conßulted by letter and otherwise by thoae who desire to hnow if the ANTI-FAT ia truly a harmless medicine, to which enquiries we can, from our large observation, most sincerely and positively unawer in the affirmative, but various other questions are propounded by those who, from hjvving regarded their obesity aa indication of health, are fearful of injurious effects from a remedy known to reduce corpulency. One wanis io know "if the fat is removed, will the skiu not bo wrinkled or furrowed ?" A knowledge of the anatomy of the human skin, and of its wonderful contractile natuie, is only necessary to convince any person who might have similar apprehension* that the skin readily adapts itself to a changed habit of body. Not only is the skin noi furrowed by a reduction of corpulenoy, the skin when blotched or rough is made more smooth, clear, and beautiful. A LLA.N'3 ANTI-FAT is endorsed by X"JL thoae eminent in tho medical profession. THOMAS FAIRBAWK, M. D., o£ Windsor, Surgeon to her Majesty the Queen, referricg to ANTI-FAT in the "British Medical Journal of June 7, 1879, says ;— "I gave some of this extract (Fucus Vesiculoaus) to a very corpulent lady, who in three months los!; three stonea in weight without any change of diet. Since thet. I hava frequently given it for reducing weight, depending on the accumulation of adipose tissue, and have never found it fail. I may state that a patient who has beon lately taking it as an anti-fat, and who always suffered very much from rheumatic pains about the body, has been entirely free from such trouble while she has bee» taking the extract, a fact which she quite independently noted." LLAN'S ANTI-FAT lleduc«a a Lady Four Pounds per Week. " Manchester-sq., London, Sept 30, 1879. The Botanic Medicine Co., Great Russell street buildings, London, W.C.
