At last, however, he has found his saviour: Count William .Bismarok, the Prince's Meond son, was, like his father, long troubled by obesity. One hippy day a literary friend introduced bo4aiw a cer- tain Dr. Schwentunger, a BaVa ian, who claimed to have hit upon st rcgimd which was an infallible cure for fatness.
