ters and one son, all Of her daughters

Early in the game Keogh appeared to

get his famous play down to his GUS

him until after the hundred-point mark
After that point the luck appeared to
shift and go to De Oro. With luck and
knowledge IN his favor De Oro began to
forge to the front. and Keogh did not
make another frame during the play after
he reached the 107 point.

MANY LIVES SAVED
THROUGH ALIFE-PRESERVER

IT N eminent physician of this
city recently said: cVery
thin people live from hand
to mouth, and have little
reserve for emergencies"
- - OF course we know of per-
sons whose nature it is to
be thin-rborn that way" some say,
but there Is a healthy standard by which
q person who knowS himself can gauge
his good health or poor health. If for
any reason he or she is below his or her
normal weight, then it is wise to look
out for trouble. In case the germs OF
grippe, typhoid, or consumption gain an
entrance to the body they find fertile
field and develop Immediately. We can
only compare this sudden taking on of
disease germs by the thin body, to the
fertile field which lays fallow until an
unfortunate wind carries the seeds of
some wild and worthless plant there and
they quickly root and flourish. Almost
any grave change in health is at once
betrayed by the loss Of flesh, which
shows most often in the face. This con-
.dition almost always co-exists with i'm
poverished blood. A gain of flesh up
to certain point means rise in other
essentials of health the red corpuscles
of the blood are increased, and the color
improved. When persons find them
selves losing weight they should heed
the warning, and use the proper means
in time before disease fastens on them.
