Fat Folks Hot Weather
Comfort Secret

The only way to be comfortable. if fat.
in hot weather. is to get thin-that is, re-
duce. This is paradoxical, but it is true
and they say the truth is bitter.
Truly. to face the necessity of reducing by
means of exercise or starving is a bitter
prospect for any overfat person, man or
woman. But. cheer up. those old methods
are passe-out of date.
Nowadays. the welI-informed fat people
who want to take off enough flesh to make
them feel unstuffed within and unburden-
cd without go to the nearest druggist.
from whom. for small sum, they get u
ounce Marmola, Y ounce Fluid Extract
Cascara Aromatic. and 31A ounces SiruI
Simplex. This they take quietly for awhile,
teaSpoonful at a time, after meals and
at bed time, and pretty soon find them
selves losing their excess flesh at the ratt
of u to 16 ounces a day.
They eat the same food and don't neec
to exercise, and yet they get thin. Nor
over. they do not accumulate wrinklt
or acquire an abusive stomach

just bothers the fat-not the taker. In this
It is different, very different you'll agree

LAKIN MAN IS HERE.
l. G. Eyman Explains Connection
With Land Deals.

1. G. Eyman of Lakin, Kan. is in
Topeka today for the purpose of talk
ing over with state officials school
land deals alleged to be of question
able nature with which it is said he is
connected.
Mr.. Eyman was charged some time
ago with having been in collision with
certain county officials in the purchase
of a large tract of school land near
I.akin at $3.50 per acre. when the land
was really worth about $40 per acre.
Governor Hoch and Attorney General
Jackson have been making an inveS-
ttgation of the charges through J. G.
Gafford, state accountant and the
county attorney of Kearny county has
brought suit against Mr. Eyman to re-
woke the certificate to the school land
which he holds.
Mr.. lyman denies absolutely that
he is guilty of any misconduct "The
charge against me was made by a man
who is in the real estate business and
who is sore because he didn't get a
commission on the DEAL" says Mr. Ely
man. 81 bought the school land in
the regular way; it was appraised by
a regular board, and there was no COL
fusion. The tract which 1 bought is
not under the ditch and can not be
irrigated. Hence it is of little value
There may have been a time a year
at its height when it would have
brought more than $3.50 per acre, but
at the present time that is the best
that it could be said to be worth.
When this transaction was first ques-
toned, l had the original certificate
cancelled because there was some trif1-
ing irregularity in it, and had new
certificate issued after fifteen days In
that fifteen days there was no attempt
to make any investigation, or any
question raised 1 then proceeded to
have a new certificate made on a new
appraisement. / want the state to in
vestigate this case, and hope they will
do good job. because 1 don't like to
have my reputation injured by false
charges. There may have been fraud
and collision. in some of these school
land transactions. but not in this one"
Mr.. Eyman was formerly register
of deeds in Kearny county, and is now
in the confectionery business. His
health has not been good and he says
he bought the tract of school land in

LAGORIO IS SAFE
He Became Infected With Rabies
Twelve Days Ago.

Chicago. Sept. DIR. A. Lagorio of
the Pasteur institute. who has been
taking treatment for an infection Of
rabies obtained by a scratch on his
hand in his laboratory. is declared out
of danger by members of his family
and his associate physicians. DR..
Lagorio was infected II days ago. The
incubation was the result of an acct
dent which he suffered while expert
menting on the virus of rabbit that
had suffered for eight days with VIC
lent rabies A piece of the animal
skullbone, broken in such shape that
it tapered to a needle point, entered the
middle finger of his right hand, pune
turing the skin and prodding well into
the flesh.
DR.. Lagorio was conducting a clinic
in the operating room of his hydropho-
bia study at 22s Dearborn avenue,
when the mishap occurred. He had cut
the skull and held it aloft as he dis
cussed the case.
THE skullbone of an animal that has
died of hydrophobia swarms with mil
lions of hydrophobia germs" he was
saying, and at this point he broke the
skull in half for the purpose of max
ing microscopic demonstration of this
fact.
IF you will step forward to the table,
gentlemen" he began. And as the stu
dents crowded forward the great spe-
cialist suddenly dropped the piece OF
bone to the floor. His face turned pal
lid and his body shook with emotion.
He turned to an assistant and SAID IN
quivering voice: The hypodermc-the
antitoxin-quick."
The assembled men, many of them
physicians. realized what had happen
