Newman, a licensi eil practicing physician of 286 Fifth Avenue. New York, who announces 5 that he has perfected a treatment . which has quickly rid fat people of excess weight. What is more remarkable is the Doctor's statement ' that he has successfully treated thousands of patients for fat reflucI tion without change of diet or uu necessary exercise. It is also said that fat people who suffer from i chronic rheumatism, gout, asthma . and high blood pressure obtain great relief from the reduction of their superfluous flesh. Realizing that 5 this sounds almost too good to be 4 true, the Doctor has offered to send 5 without charge to anyone who will write him. a free trial treatment to prove his claims, as well as his “Pay1 when-reduced” plan. If you want to . rid yourself of superfluous fat, write him today, addressing Dr. R. Newman, 286 Fifth Avenue. New York City, Dept. R 13.
