This IS the expression of a medical man
who said that the liver of a fat man must
present a wonderful sight when that man
is alive and performing his regular duties.
The liver is the largest organ in the hui
man body. The stomach calls on the
liver and so does the blood. II the liver
gives 10 the digestive apparatus improper
Juices then the digestion Is wrong This
rs what makes people fat. The liver
is not right On popular demand we have
made the famous MarmOla Prescription
into tablets which are eaten after meals
just like food and they digest that food
as IL should be digested. They remove
fat already accumulated at the rate of
from u 20 Is ounces per day and leave
no wrinkles or habby skin. Carry one
in your vest pocket or purse when you
dine out and eat what you will. Fasting
diet, and exercise will not reduce fat
You only starve the body and by tearing
down other organs you bring the fat with
the rest Of the destruction. Marmola
tablets are sold by all druggists and in
greater quantity than all the other So
called fat reducers combined. There must

FRENCH HOUSES ARE ARTISTIC
A Type Suitable for an American Home
 Has Sun-P -Parlor and Roof Garden

The influence of the French on the architecture of the present day is exert ed through their school of architecture L'Ecole des Beaux Arts the leading school for architecture in the world. Owing to the artistic democracy and liberality of the French, this govern ment school has been open to students of all countries and it's influence is world wide We in America must also pay tribute to this great school as its influence was timely aid to us in shap- ing, through the American students, our architectural destiny when we were sorely in need of it, says William Neil Smith in the Delineator for October. We owe it mostly to the French that we are at the present, for the first time rating favOrably with, if not surpass ing, our older mother countries in Eur ope.
 A house that is typical of the French movement is stueco washed pure white. The roof of the tower is GOV cred with light green glazed tile. The smaller brackets directly beneath the roof are painted vermilliOD red. The large brackets are painted white, to harmonize with the rest of the build ing. The sash of the windows are paint ed green. The ornamental balconies which project from the face of the tow CT and the building proper are con structed of saw balusters, and wood strips in pattern, and are painted green the same shade as the roof and the frames of the windows.
 'The harmonious awnings were eyi- dently designed, as they should be, by the architect, to form an integral part of the building; and too much stress can not be laid on the importance of carrying out this idea. In this instance they are white-and-g green striped, the green exactly matching the green of the woodwork on the rest of the exerior.
 The roof garden and sun parlor from a very interesting and practical feature and one which is seldom incorporated in small house in America. It not only adds a great deal to the living qualities of the house, but, as is shown, in the illustration, has been made an addition to the beauty of the building as we'll. The tower forms the sun par Tor, enclosed in glass for the winter, not in temporary sash, but with permanent glass enclosures with sash which can be thrown open during the summer, and which are a part of the design.
