How to Reduce Fatness.

''The fatness of most fat persons doesn't seem to decrease with the hot weather, and the reason for 1t is that these fat ones drink too much water and eat too many sweets" said a physician last night. = What horrid habit physicians have of not allowing themselves quoted by name in the newspapers!
 'As to general fatness." the physician continued, "Dr. Schweninger. the cele- brated German physician who reduced Bismarck's weight nearly 100 pounds, in- vented special system of weight reduc- ton.
 His system aims to improve the con- dition of the heart and liver, which often have a tendency to disease in fat per- sons. It has no cut-and-dried rules, as Is the case with most systems, but is adapt ed to Individual conditions. In some cases sugar and farinaceous foods are allowed in moderation, while in others they are strictly prohibited The great advantage of the Schweninger system over all oth- CTS Is that the reduction is permanent.
 According to Schweninger, all watery articles of diet should be avoided as fur as possible. Thin beef and mutton soups are allowed. Of bread and farinaceous food only six ounces a day are permit ted. These six ounces consist of gluten or stale bread or dry toast. Water may be taken in moderation between meals Fat soups sauces, spices cereals, maca- roni, potatoes, pastry, buildings, pies, cake and milk are on the black list. Tea and coffee. with milk, may be used. For des- serts, fruit is recommended, the prefer ence being given to grapes, oranges, cher ries, berries and acid fruits. In the mat ter of vegetables there is wide range given-marrows, turnips. asparagus, eau lifiower. onions, celery, cress, spinach, to- matoes, radishes, lettuce and greens be- ing permitted"

Andrew Carnegie may have evidenced
octopus proclivities in his chase after
wealth but his charitable instinct and

what he has accumulated is certainly
above criticism. He has recently given

toward the comfort and enjoyment of
the laboring people in his employ, and if
all is not required by them others of the

EX-President Harrison,

The announcement Of the death of
General Harrison, the twenty.third
president Of the United States, is re.
ceived with regret by the people of the
country whom he has faithfully served
in many public capacities during his
eventual career. He loved the people,
but his efforts were not directed to.
ward receiving vulgar popular approval.
He had keen sense of duty and his
public life was devoted toward the high
aim to which this duty prompted him,
regardless Of the consequences to his
popularity. His is a name that will
grace the pages of his country's history
and is destined to grow brighter as the
years roll on. He was q republican, but
not 90 much Of a partizan but that he
could criticize when he deemed that
there was cause for criticism and his
views were respected even by those
whom he opposed.
His public life began in 1860, when
he became the supreme court reporter OF
Indiana. He enlisted as second heuten.
ant at the opening Of the war of the
rebellion and became brigadier general
in 1865, his promotions being for meri
torious conduct solely. After the close
OF the war he again served as supreme
court reporter and in 1876 was defeated
for governor of the Hoosier state. He
served in the United States senate from
1881 to 1887 and was elected president
in 1888. He was defeated for the same
positi IN by Grover Cleveland in lS92 and
has since served his country in various
appointive capacities.
He was not an old man, lacking sew,
eral months of being 6S years of age
Tie family left to mourn consists of q
wife, a son and daughter. The son il
Colonel Russell Harrison and the
daughter Mrs. Mckee, neither of whom
were at the bedside when the end came

paid to the memory of the deceased
statesman than that of Grover Cleve

The reason for the rapid advance In
the value of farm property is not far to
seek when the splendid prices that pro.
ducts Of the soil command is considered.
Not in many years has there been such
a demand for land from purchasers and
renters as there is this spring. Pros.
perity prevails among the farmers and
there are few city people who do not
envy them their independent existence
and healthy out. door life. On the
other hand many agriculturalists are i'm
proving the opportunity to dispose of
their land and move to the towns and
cities where they may some day learn
TO regret their action.
