LEFT FAT; BACK SLENDER
by FOoTLIGHTS."

Glau and his overweight chorus from
the "Aeroplane" company have returned
to New York in what may be described
as greatly reduced circumstances. Not
as to finances, let is be said nor yet
in numbers, glory be, but in avoirdu
pois-that is to say, gross flesh The
entire galaxy has lost out in this re-
spect, much to its advantage.
1t seems the people out west will sup
port slim ballerinos, and no other, and
our famous balloon chorus" carried,
so to speak, no weight wit hthem. They
treated that prize collection of fat New
York beauties with an unprecedented
coldness. Consequently, Glau faced the
problem of reducing the entire front
and rear rows at once, or shipping
them back-"excess" baggage. 1t was
terrific job. as all who saw the Aero
plane" before it left this tolerant town
Will admit but our ingenious townsman
tackled it and succeeded-broke all
records in fact And thereby hangs a
tale worthy of any fat lady's attention.
Glau didn't rehearse his flock into
shape, nor starve them into line, nor
yet worry them, verbally. into shad-
ows. = He paid salaries regularly and
let them eat and drink as they listed.
He simply hung up new rule in the
dressing rooms to the effect that every
lady less than five foot seven who
weighed in excess of $50 pounds must
take a teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime (orabout where her bedtime

half ounce Marmola. X ounce Fluid Elk

Ohio, Marshall wins over watson in In
diana. Governor Johnson is reelected
in Minnesota. and the governorship
contest in Michigan is very close, and
undecided.
In view of their losses Of the gov
ernorships in Ohio and Indiana. and of
the legislature in the latter state and
possibly also the former, the repubh
cans count themselves lucky to have
saved the presidential electors in both
states by relatively small pluralities.
The new Indiana legislature is demo-
cratic and it is expected Mr. Kern is
to have his disappointment over loss
of the honor of presiding over the
United States senate softened by the
gain of a seat in that body as successor
TO Senator Hemenway.
The legislatures in Ohio and Kansas.
both involving United States senator
ships, are in doubt.
In all of his battles Bryan has been
opposed by the business interests Of
the country.
"of course no man can be elected
president of the United States who
lacks the confidence of the business
men of the country"
These words. spoken a few days ago
by one Of the most prominent democrats
of the east, give perhaps as good an
explanation of Tafts great victory as
we are likely to get. In connection
with this central fact must be consid-
cred another most important element
the general approval given by the
people at large to the policies and ad-
ministration of President Roosevelt and
their desire that they be continued.

able impression among Lake county

an issue, Watson surely would have
