happy. Health and happiness usually

an is invariably unhappy and with
good reason. Did you ever know an
unhealthy woman who was popular

women feel unhappy because they feel
unhealthy. Our view of it is that if
you can Danish this i'll health you will

single, to try the following prescrip
ton three times a day and at bedtime

put up the argument of his life Thurs
day evening at the Ling Boys CLUB
athletic entertainment which took
place at Central park. He wrestled
for 25 minutes with John Voss of Rock
Island, but neither man succeeded in
getting a fall, so the match was de-
clared draw The crowd was well
pleased with the exhibition, and sports
are surprised at the skill shown by the
Moliner. The preliminaries were also
entertaining. Robert Anderson and
John Sporty wrestled, each winning a
fall within 10 minutes. They did not
wrestle for the third fail, and the
crowd was consequently disappointed
and they seemed to be pretty evenly
matched Francis Senate and Dick
Sellers gave four rounds of exhibition
boxing, and Fred Dyce and Emil Car
tier fought six fast rounds, which re
suited in a draw.
