Civil Service Commission of Chicago has established minimum standard of weight for applicants at 40 pounds. Give me week, and I'll make the weight" His tone was earnest and his eyes had the appealing glance that mer- it's the ogre's heart in the fairy tale. The commissioners pondered the request and decided to grant it. The young man, upon hearing the decision, threw his hat into the air and went away to consult a physician. From the doctor he went home and started various members of his family off to the grocer's and drug Igist's to secure the materials for his quick-fattening stint.
 The regimen Walsh was ordered to sollow seems attractive. At the risk of rousing envy among the less leisurely we append the rules for taking on four pounds week.
 Don't work. Eat and sleep plentifully and take light exercise.
 Rise at S:30. For breakfast, half an hour later, eat as much oatmeal as can be taken with plenty of cream. Drink milk and water-considerable water. Potatoes are to be eaten in any style without grease. They are the greatest fat producers, being nearly all starch.
 Rest until 10 a. m. Then walk for an hour, not, too briskly. Take nap if it does not interfere with the reGnla~ 10 hours sleep ~

For the midday meal eat roast veal, roast beef or chicken with rich soup. Chicken broth with rice is preferable. Eat mashed potatoes and quantities of bread and butter. It is better to avoid pastry.
 Take a nap soon after dinner. Late ir the afternoon exercise in the open air for three-quarters of an hour-not too nriskly. Afterwards sponge down" with sea salt and water. This will fesh- he you up for your final meal. For the evening meal take meat or eggs with plenty of bread and butter land potatoes again. A little pastry might be eaten with this meal, but avoid anything containing grease.
 After supper rest during 20 minutes. Between 7:3O and 9:30 p. m. spend in the open air. Ride in carriage or automo- bile. If they are not available 9 street car will do.
 During this course be cherful and seek cheerful company, especially on your evening ride.
