Surprising a corpulent person to be diet
ing and losing a quarter of pound in
weight daily. IL by the use OF a little
medicine he quickens the acton OF the
kidneys and bowels, and so increases the
elimination Of the waste, his reduction in
weight will be much more rapid.
Experiments made by the writer upon
himself will serve as an illustration. In
trying TO reduce his weight he found, after
time that Notwithstanding he was living
upon the smallest possible quantity Of food
consistent with strength and his diet was
carefully selected, he could not pull off
more than pound of flesh per week. He
then commenced taking two rhubarb pills
and half pint of hot water at bed time,
and on rising teaspoonful OF Carlsbad
salts In a cupful of hot water.
This treatment he persisted In for week,
during which time a reduction Of five
pounds in weight was effected without loss
Of strength, and there was a decided i'm
provement In the general health and men
tai condition. BY the means Of IL the
elimination of waste was greatly increased
Not only were the kidneys and bowels
made to do more work, but the liver and
digestive organs shared in the stimulation.

There are some women who seem born
to wastefulness. They waste money and
affection and time and strength, they are
natural spendthrifts. But there Is no
place where waste is more disastrous to re-

said of certain people that they walk
around all day in a space of few inches,
busy-yes, frightfully busy-and yet at

work are not always, like the successful

MYER WON THE FIGHT.
Dut the Referee Gave 1t to Bower
on a Foul.

Dut the Referee Gave 1t to Bowen
on Foul.
New ORLEANS, May 20.-The light
weight glove fight between Billy Myer,
"the Streator cyclone, and Andy Bowen
for purse of $1,000, $1,000 of which
went to the loser, took place at the
Olympic club.
At the outset it seemed as though
Bowen was the better man, but in the
sixth round the "cyclone" developed his
superiority, and Bowen became weaker
and his blows less effective rs the fight
progressed, 1t was a desperate struggle
Throughout, however, and Myer was
fighting agaisnt the sympathy of the
spectators.
The twenty-third and closing round
began with a rush by Myers that drove
Bowen around the ring The Streator
boy had his man, and finally knocked
him down. Bowen got up three times,
only to be knocked down again, and on
the third fall he lay across the lower
rope and looked very much as if he had
more fighting than he wanted. He,
however, staggered to his feet, and
Myers knocked him down.
While in this position Myers, in his
excitement, hit him again before he
could gain his feet. 1t is doubtful if
Bowen could have responded to the
gong, as he was thoroughly whipped be-
fore the blow was struck. Myers
walked over to his corner and Bowen
was carried to his.
The 5 200 men present began to yell
foul and insist that the fight should be
given to Bowen. The referee decided in
accordance with the clamors of the
crowd. and the 95 per cent. of the crowd
that were in favor of Bowen yelled their
delight,
The committee of the club are trying
to come to some equitable agreement
about the $1,000 purse. 1t is thought
that the money will be evenly divided.
