Many Leading College Teams TRAIN ON KNOX GELATINE THE Knox Gelatine Drink for Endur- ance has had a definite place on the training tables of leading universities during the past season. While Knox Gel atine cannot make a team win, coaches and trainers have found that athletes have more endurance, recover more quickly from hard competition, show noticeably fewer muscle strains and injuries when they get their Knox Gelatine every day. Men and women in all walks of life are increasing their endurance and lessening fatigue by this same simple method. Try it yourself. Take Knox Gelatine every day for a few weeks. See if you, too, don't feel better, work better, play better. Most people need all the vitality they can get to win out in the game of life. T£AR THIS OUT AS A R£MIND£R THIS WAY: Empty 1 env.
