BY STUART MAGICIAN.

CHICAGO, May They have Just
completed the plans for the interior
arrangements OF the national Repub-
lican convention at the Coliseum in
June. The architects and the fellows
at the head OF the local committee
would like TO keep them secret, but
here you have them with diagram.
II Is expected that there will be
something like 100000 altogether
within the confines of Chicago about
convention time. Everybody in town
is figuring on going and so Chicago
wanted $4,000 seats. There will be
only 11.167, and OF course when this
fact becomes known there will be a
most prodlgious howl.
There was talk OF getting the extra
5000 seats In new gallery, but
mighty and enterprising Chicago look
ed at the dollars and cents and back
ed out.
The plans provide 1000 seats about
the middle of the hall on the main
floor for the alternates-good souls,

Why RengO
 Reduces Fat
AHti-Fats and Starvation Diet Result in
 Wreckinu of the System.

In cases of fat, the food is not properly assinilated-thatki is, part of the food is re- tained by the body which should not be re- tained, and part which should be retained is thrown out; This does not always mean dyspepsia or indigestion, for one may have 6 very healthy stomach and yet begin to grow fat. through no apparent cause.
 It Is evident to any one, then that to try to starve away the fat Is both ridiculous and dangerous.
 The use of anti-fats. remedies that posi- lively stop digestion sooner or later results in break down of some organ and conse- quent disease.
 Certain tropical fruits have been known for some time to be remarkable regulators of the system.
 This is what Rengo does It eontains a tropical fruit mixture which has this faculty of perfectly assimilating food taken Into the body. That is the secret, It has resulted in making Rengo Q marvel as O fst-reducer and a health builder, and a 0odsend to all l fat people.
