ana understanding ere of such high
character as to eminently make him an
ideal iurist. He is n man of fine poise

brilliant for the justice that belongs to

of all men who come within the bar of
his court.
No man is more competent to hold
the scales of justice in those civil pro.
cedures where conscientious regard for
the distinction of right and application
of law is demanded. Nor is there one
who more mercifully considers the
application of law and its rigor to those
unfortunatcs who. from mishap or
through untoward conditions or MS
perverts or colnInittors of crime come
before him. He is an ideal jurist of
many years standing: ho has a record
that is second to none. He Is the
present chief justice of the Nevada
Supreme Court, and for his indebted
and clear record he deserves collection.
Remember Talbot on election day.

After outlining his case before the

tend the local market. He had started

Fat women who are contemplating a

template a reduction of their flesh be-
fore they visit the dressmaker.
Fortunately this is nothing like the
hard labor II was when one had nothing
but exercising or dieting to get results
with. Nowadays a short course OF the
Marmola Prescription Tablets should
bring any woman. however fat. to the
proportions necessary for her to wear
Directoire gown.
Let her take a MarmOla Tablet (made
i'm accordance with the famous pre-
scription and. therefore. harmless). af-
ter each meal and at bedtime and she
should very soon be losing a pound a
day. This result. accomplished with
out disturbing ones table customs,
forming wrinkles or distressing the
stomach. astonishes everybody.
Even one large case. costing only IS
cents at any druggists. or the same
amount direct by mail from the Mar
mola Company. Detroit, Mich, gives
positive results. This constitutes ths
