The Cheapest Fat Reducer is
the Best

The attention of all who are hal.
choked and generally bedeviled by
an excess of fat which, by the way
always seems more excessively ex-
cessive during the sultry season than
any other, is called 10 the Marmola
Prescription Tablets.
Seventy-five cents secures enough
of these remarkable fat reducers
from any druggist to last you a
good while, in fact, It buys an extra
large case. This is enough to make
a very desirable change in almost
anyone's weight. Taken one after
each meal and at bedtime the loss
of az much as "a pound OF fat n
day has been attained innumerable
times.
This Is royal result that seems
all the more remarkable when one
realizes these tablets are cheaper
by half than anything else your
druggist has But the net loss they
bring about is not the only good
feature of these tablets. They are
pleasant TO take; don't disturb the
stomach; don't require one to exer-
else particle or diet o mouthful
and last. but not least, do not cause
wrinkles They reduce one quickly,
but evenly-naturally They produce,
in short, the Identical results of the
famous NIarmola Prescription, with
which they are identical in compost
tion. Try a case. If your druggist
is sold out then write the makers,
the Marmola Company OF Detroit,
to send you one by mail.

The growing favor of corporation
managers for provisions protecting
their employees against death, sick
ness, disability and old age had a
notable example in the plan Just pro-
posed TO the 10000 employees of the
international Harvester Company by
the management. If Is per cent OF
the employees agree to contribute 2
per cent. of the wages Of each to a
benefit fund, the company will con
tribute $4,000 OF If half of them
agree to the plan the company's check
will be for $4,000. A novel feature
of the plan, and one which Is looked
upon as liberal, is that not limiting
the liability of the company for per-
sonal injuries, the right of employees
to damages being unlmpaired. The
rehponses from all branch houses OF
the company have not yet been re-
ceived, and cannot be for several
weeks, as they are scattered all over
the globe, but the approval of the
Tlan Is reported to be certain, re-
plies at the rate of ] 900 a day hav-
ing come In at once In brief. the
plan provides that every employe
who contributes per cent of his
wages to the fund becomes a member
of an association and is entitled to
against death from sickness or acct
dent, and will receive half wages
while disabled by sickness or INJURY.
The family of man who is killed
by an accident while on or on duty
will receive two years wages. For
both hands or feet the employe will
receive two years wages. In case ol
death from Illness one years wages
will be paid. The company receives
no financial benefit from the new
plan, the association being solely foI
the benefit of the employees, who are
allowed to choose one-half of the
board OF trustees from members rep,
resenting the various branches and
departments. Membership Is open tC

Chicago, Sept. i6.-rhe Chicago
School Board this year has an awk-
ward problem for school fraternities
and sororitles very much on its hands.
Such a violent crusade was conduct
ed against them last year that the
board decided to abolish them. In
spite of the protests OF thousands OF
boys and girls and many parents, the
order went into effect. Every pupil
this year WHO has been member OF
secret society, has had TO sign Il
pledge renounclnS his membership.
The sorority members have already
done so, but the majority of the
boys have flatly refused and are now
defying the board. AS the matter
stands they will not be allowed to
return until they submit and the
question Is thus burning one in
thousands of households. over 300,-
000 tanned and sunburned school
children filed reluctantly to their
places when the public schools OPP
ened. The annual opening, which
used 10 be simple matter has as
sumed remarkable proportions, and
the machinery to be set in motion is
complex. Beside the assignment OF
teachers and pupils and the securing
of substitute teachers. there are
medical examinations to be made
and provision for seating nearly 10,-
900 pupils in excess of the present
al ffx u
ical inspectors have begun a hurried
examination of 100000 throats and
G00,000 eyes. The primary object of
the inspection is to prevent possible
epldemlcs of contagious diseases, but
great attention is paid to eyesight
and to "adenoid" growths in the
, ohildren's throats, which doctors de-
clare are the couse of so per cent
Of the backwardness and lack OF
attention in pupils, as well as fertile
breeders of disease. The prelimin-
ary examination will take several
days and will be followed later by a
thorough one.

FENNER IS AFTER
OLDFIELD'S SCALP
WOULD LIKE MATCH RACE ON
CORONADO TRACK
Wrecked White Flyer Is Nearly Ready
to Leave the Shop Again and
VIII Be Matched with
Big Ben

There is a strong probability that
Barney Oldfield will return to Southern
California and that he will run a
match race with the White Flyer
when he returns. The ambition of f.
w. Gregory of the White Flying
Squadron is to defeat Oldheld's Stearns
in competition.
That he would have been able to pull
off a victory if the car had not tipped
over at Ascot park a few days ago
seems to be a fixed idea in the minds
of those who saw what the White did
i its exhibition.
r. G. Fenner is at present in San
Diego and while there will, in addition
to other business, try 10 arrange for
a race meet to be held on the Coro-
nado track in the near future. 1t is
hoped to have Barney Oldheld there
and get a match race with him.
f. w. Gregory has given his promise
that the White Flyer will be available
again. Three or four days more will
see it in running order again when it
will be tuned up once more.
If Seyfried cannot beat Oldfield at
Coronado, Fenner says that he will
offer Capt Ryus $500 to drive the flyer,
as he thinks that the three-time win
ner of the Badly race can send the
speedy space-eater around the track
as fast as any one can and will also
be as clever as the much Wanted Bar
ney.
The Oldfeld team left for Phoenix
on yesterdays train and will race there
on Saturday and Sunday next. F. w.
Gregory of the White racing team went
along, too, to see what they do and
try to get a match race for the Coro-
nado beach track.

A CITING under instructions from
II Prosecutor Eddie regarding the
"a application of the anti-tip ordin-
anee, The Herald has discontinued
publication of the form chart of the
Santa Anita races and will not pub
lish the odds quoted against the win
ners, seconds and thirds at Emeryville
or any other race course. The ordin-
ance having been upheld in the SUI
perior court, will be enforced literally
by the city prosecutor, and this means
that publication of index numbers In
the entry or form chart sheets, fore
casts of results and all reference to
betting odds will subject the offender
to arrest. Not desiring to exist on a
bread and water diet and be forcibly
restrained from the pursuit of happi-
ness and the enjoyment of my per
sonal liberty" l do not propose to take
any chances of having to be bailed out
of jail merely to accommodate my
friends at the races. My personal
opinion of the ordinance does not seem
to have any effect upon the prosecutor,
and as he has a greater influence with
the police than myself l will let him
have his way in the matter.
For the first time in history the
Morning Telegraph of New York is
publishing the form chart of Los An
geles races, past performances of the
horses and making selections as to the
winners. This indicates the impor-
tance of the Santa Anita meeting in
the minds of those down east.
Jockey TreubeI drew down an addi-
tional three days suspension from
Starter Hoffman last Tuesday and
yesterday he was plastered with $50
fine. 1t does seem like the crack rider
has incurred the enmity of the Santa
Anita judiciary in no uncertain man
ner, and when they have nothing else
to do they either fine or Suspend this
kiddo. Other Jockeys are getting away
with most any old thing, but Treubel
cannot breathe without being unmer
cifully swatted with judicial opin-
ion. Instead of trying to make amends
for the unfair and unreasonable pen
atty of $500 fine and thirty days sus-
pension, imposed upon him few days
ago, the powers that be keep on prod
ding him with fines and suspensions
until the general public that supports
the game Is getting more than dis
gusted. 1t would be a joke if 1t was
not such a serious matter. Tt is a
dirty shame and the board of stew
ards should investigate the case, as
certain whether the boy is being prop
erly punished or merely is a victim
of the disfavor of those in power over
him. 1t looks like a systematic effort
at putting him out of business.
George Rose and Seymour Beutler
are confined to their beds with a Sc
we're attack of la grippe. Neither was
at the track yesterday, for the first
time this season, and only severe
attack of sickness would be sufficient
to keep either away. Rose will not be
able to get out for two or three days
but Seymour thought last night that
he might be able to show up today.

Plentiful

Many duck hunters returned from
the clubs yesterday and report the
shooting still excellent. Numerous
parties left last night and several are
leaving today to attend New Years
eve links at their clubs preceding the
shoot on the following morning.
Practically the whole membership of
the. Recreation club left last night to
attend the celebration to be given at
the club house and take part in the
shoot this morning. August Marquis,
who has just returned from the east,
was among those who went down to
the Recreation yesterday afternoon,
and will take part in the shoot today.
Octavius w. Morgan, who has been
going down to the Recreation regularly
and has always bagged the limit, is
among the members who will shoot
today. Bob Fulton and A. M. Squires
went down to the club late last night
in Mr.. Fulton's machine.
DR.. E. W. Taylor, DR.. Davis and G;
w, Leffingwell report an average good
shoot at the Saamae club yesterday.
The party went down Tuesday night
and were out in the blinds by day
light, ready for the shoot. They will
return to try for the limit next week,
Col. c. P. Morehouse made a record
at the Bolsa Chica yesterday when he
bagged the limit in less than an hour
and a half.
Jake Ffeber, proprietor of the Bristol
cafe, and a party of friends got the

Lou Mellus and a party of friends
report a rather poor days shooting at
the Moore club near Compton yester-
day.

day. p. r. Maier and r. ]. Maier ac-
companted by a number of friends
also got the limit at the Chico Land

the latter is sick.
c. b. Reid boosted the selling price
of Whldden from $500 to $500 after the
sleeper cashed in the second race, but
the Maine stable protected their win
ner by lacking on the extra So. This
runup was in retaliation for similar
tactics by the Maine stable the pre-
Vious day.
Red Walker bought Steel from Sam
Hildreth at a private sale after the
first race yesterday for $780, Walker
won a bet on the colt that enabled
him to get him for about half price.
This does not look like Walker intends
retiring from the turf.
Harry Smith received notice yester-
day that his Jockey license had been
forwarded and he will be able to ride
again in a few days. He will make
his second debut probably New Years
day. He is under contract to the Oak
wood stock ranch, under which firm
name Lawrence & Comstock race their
extensive string.
Loud and harsh are the comments of
the racegoerS who have to ride to and
from the track in crowded cars every
day over the Pacific Electric. Every
car going and coming, as a rule, is 50
jammed that the aisles are filed with
passengers who must stand. The early
cars after the races are raced away
from the track half empty, before the
crowd begins to file out, and the other
cars that leave from five to thirty min
utes after the last race is run are
damned to the guard rails with pas
sengers sitting on all steps and stand
ing up on the platforms. If the South
ern Pacific would inaugurate a service
that would permit a train to leave the
grounds at 4:45 o'clock and depart for
the track at II o'clock in the morning
in addition to OTIS regular service,
the Pacific Electric would lose half its
patronage.
Tommy Andrews, sporting editor of
the Evening Wisconsin at Milwaukee
has issued his annual record book for
1902 and 1t is the most complete and
carefully edited edition he ever has
issued. His record book is the accept
ed authority in its line and it is pleas
ing to note the great improvement
which he has made in it. It contains
all the world records in the various
lines of sports and athletics. in addi-
ton to the records of all fighters OF
prominence. 1t only costs a dime plus
a 2-cent stamp, and is worth ten times
the amount.
Mulligan, the newcomer in the jock
ey ranks, was wildly cheered by the
thousands in the grandstand and on
the grounds after he had won with
Whidden, which dropped from the
clouds to beat out Third Rail in the
second race. One might have imagined
from the cheering that the kid had
just won a derby with popular IA
Vorite.
