Fat Folks Hot Weather Com.
fort Secret.

The only way to be comfortable, if fat
in hot weather, is to get thin-that is. re-
duce. This is paradoxical, but ii 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 pros
pect for any Overfat person. man or
woman. But, cheer up, those old methods
are pasSe-out of date
Nowadays, the weIl-informed fat people
who want TO take off enough flesh to
make them feel unstuffed within and IN
burdened without go to the nearest drug
Sist, from whom, for small sum, they
get y ounce Marmola. q ounce Fluid Ex-
tract Cascara Aromatic, and 3l2 ounces
Sirup Simplex. This they take quietly for
awhile, a teaspOonful at time, after
meals and at bedtime, and pretty soon
find themselves losing their excess flesh
at the rate of u to 10 ounces day.
They eat the same food and don't need
to exercise, and yet they get thin. More
over, they do not accumulate wrinkles
or acquire an abusive stomach in the
process. This harmless home mixture just
bothers the fat-not the taker. In this
it is different, very different, you'll agree,
from the usual remedy

PRIMARIES IN OKLAHOMA
Blind Senator Had No Opposition
Results Will Not Be Known
for Several DAYS.

Guthrie Okla, Aug. 4-As expected, the
vote polled at the primary in Oklahoma
today has been light and reports from all
parts of the state indicate that the cleo
ton has passed off quietly.
United States Senator Thomas p. Gore,
Democrat, and Dennis 7. Flynn, Republi-
can. had no opposition in their parties for
the nomination for United States senator.
Greatest interest has been manifested
in the contest between Congressman Bird
Il. Hainer of Perry for the Republican
congressional nomination in the First dis
trict. Reports which are fairly complete
indicate McGuires nomination by safe
majority. In the other district little in
terest was shown.
Owing to the fact that several tangles
have arisen over the primary election
law, it will be several days before the
actual results of the primaries will be
known.

you that you ask me TO make a speech,
and l can't understand why you-(turning
toward Mr.. Rolapp)-toast me as the next
governor. l have troubles enough al

Mr.. Bamberger then said that the La
COON celebration was distinctly an Og
den affair, as Lagoon was not big
enough to hold both his Salt Lake and
his Ogden friends. He criticised the press
for saying that Salt Lake people would
be present.
He then sat down, but was quickly on

had forced him to make a speech. il was
only fair that Mr. Rolapp should take q

SALT Lakers went to the resort, every

he gets a lot of it. He is a man who
has devoted his brain and his energy for
many years to this section, and We are
glad to see his efforts crowned with sue

den, and bring your family with you"
President A. r. Hayward of the Weber
club said:
Upon this spot We hope TO see the good
people of Ogden and of Salt Lake meet
and mingle, forgetting their cares and
the worries of life TO enjoy the beauty
of the place. We had an evidence of this
at the gate at Lagoon. A Salt Lake man
and an Ogden man wanted TO go in at
the same time. AS the Salt Lake man
was burdened with a Sunday edition Of
a newspaper, the Ogden man drew back.
and said: Go first. Your load is greater
than mine The Salt Lake man answered:
Don't get discouraged. 1t is still early in
the evening.
Senator Bamberger. in his fine perse-
Verance in the building of this railway,
deserves the crown of laurels which We
have bestowed upon the pioneers who
passed through the discouraging struggle
which toolS-place when the wilderness was
conquered. Like them, he is an advance
