BUSINESS NOTIOES. A LLA.H'SAFTI-tfA'lV A LLAN'S ANTLFAT. XL A-LLAN'B ANTI-PAT. ; A LLAN'S ANTI-FAT.' A : ■ ■: ALLAN'S ANTI'FAT (Trade Mark " Anti-Fat," registered) is the celebrated American remedy for corpulency. It is purely vegetable, being a compound concentrated fluid extract of sea lichens, and is perfectly harmless." No particular change of diet required. , Will reduoe a fat person from 21b to 51b a week. It acts up6n the food in the stomach, preventing its conversion into fat. " Corpulency is not only a disease of itself- but the harbinger of others," wrote Hir 2000 years ago, and what was tru^^^ '" not less so to-day. The consequb,.^^^ "toy are often more serious than jfe gen b **&• The thiok accumulations ol Se tissues meohanioally oppress adj. ,ans, thereby producing dyspnoea (short.*. T. of breath) and disturbanoesin the circulation characterised by palpitation of the heart, fainting, determination of blood ito the brain, derangements of the ■tomaoh, liver, kidneys, uterus, &c. In' consequence of the congestion of the stomach, thepatient becomes 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, whenoe arise somnolency, torpor of the mental and physical funotions, and not infrequently apoplexy. Obeßity 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 of fat people may be reasonably Scribed to a rupture of the organ in this weakened Btate." L '' ,A LLAN'S ANTI-FAT is absolutely harm, 'Jn^lftss. We are daily consulted by letter and otherwise by those who desire to know if „ the ANTI'FAT is truly a harmless medicine^ ", to. which enquiries we can, from our large : observation, most sincerely and positively : answer in the affirmative, but various other ■questions are propounded by those who^from having regarded their obesity aa indication of 1 health, are fearful of injurious effects from ' a remedy known to reduce corpulency. One want's to know "if the fat is removed, will the skin not be wrinkled or furrowed ?" A knowledge of the anatomy of the human skin, . and of its wonderful contractile nature, is only necessary to convince any person who might have similar apprehensions that the t Bkin readily adapts itself to a changed habit - oibody. Not only is the skin not furrowed by a reduction of corpulency, the Bkin when blotched or rough is made more smooth, clear, ' and beautiful, f ALLAN'S ANTI-EAT is endorsed by !'' jcx , those eminent in the medical profession. THOMASFAIRBANK, M D., of Windsor, Surgeen to her Majesty the Queen, referring ' to ANTI-FAT in the "British Medical Journal of June 7, 1879, says ,— " I gave < Borne of this extract (Fucus Vesiculosue) to a ~, very corpulent lady who in three months ' ' lost three Btoneß in weight without any change of diet. Since then I h ave frequently sgiven it for reducing weight, depending on f the accumulation of adipose tissue, and have Inever found it to fail. I may state that a fpatient who has been lately taking it as an j! anti-fat, and who always suffered very much ffrom rheumatic pains about the body, has ,'beeri entirely free from such trouble while fshe has been taking the extract, a fact whioh she quite independently noted." | ' "T~LLAN'S ANTI-FAT Reduces a Lady !
