Laughing, Lazy Fat Folks
 Made Slim Without Drugs

During the cold weather fat people stay at home and do not care much about removing fat They eat hearti- ly and dress warmly. This time of year is the one above all others in which flesh should be removed. The winter has a peculiar action on the blood. We all know how our skin contains pimples and boils break out nsthe spring owing to the stagnation and sluggishness of the winter blood supply. In the fat this condition is appalling. If you will go to your nearest druggist and buy a case of Marmola tablets you will stop mak- ing fat at once and you may eat when and what you will and the fat will leave you at the rate of from 12 to Is ounces a day and more than that YOU. will not be left with large, fiabby rolls of skin and deep wrinkles.
 These tablets are made after the famous Marmola Prescription and V ere so made to supply a great de- mand for a handy fat reducer that every one could carry in a purse or vest pocket so that after any meal they could be taken and evil conse- quences from such a meal thus avoid ed. If you can not secure Marmola tablets from your druggist or should you so prefer send 75 cts, the price of a large case. to The Marmola Com pany. Dept S79. Detroit. Mich. and they will send Marmola tablets to you in a plain sealed package post age prepaid

Cut Down Practice.

Their has been tendency for
of years to lessen the num-
ber of practice games played by ma
jor league teams in the South. 1t is
coming TO the front stronger than
ever, with the approach of another
training period. Managers have come
to the conclusion that better results
may be obtained by taking squad
of players to a camp and keeping
them there, in place of series OF
short jumps between minor league
towns, the advantages of which are
extremely doubtful, except from a
financial standpoint. The major and
minor league teams is decreasing
and it viii not be surprising to find
the practice matter of history in a
few more seasons.

out of his house, keeping an open door.
But should there be coming

plugs up the hole with the stuff from
his bed and keeps it closed until the
change comes. During this time he
refuses food. He never makes mis-

REV. STUCKEY IN OTTAWA.
Recreant Preacher Is Preparing for
Trial Next Week.

Ottawa, Kan, Dec. S1.-Rev. Wal
lace M. Stuckey,. charged with clipping
with Lorena Sutherland, the 16-year-
old Williamsburg girl, and who mys-
teriously disappeared from Ottawa
shortly after being admitted to bail,
has come back for trial. His case will
be called Tuesday morning, January 4.
The trial promises to be sensational
and the residents of the county have
made up their minds as to the merits
of the case and have expressed them
selves freely about it.
In Williamsburg, where the preach
err and the girl lived, the sentiment is
strong against Stuckey and the town
is demanding his punishment.
Stuckey, who came back to his
wifes home in Williamsburg, abso-
lutely refuses to make a statement.
He still declares his innocence.
Where Stuckey has been for three
months is a deep mystery. 1t was
generally thought that he was in Mex
ico,i but he refuses to say anything
about his absence, further than that
he has been working making money
for his defense. His wife has been at
tending to the Franklin county end
of the trial, assisting Attorney w. S.
jerks in lining up the defense.

ANIMALS KNEW OF CRIME.
Murderer Charles Tells Uncanny Story
of His Crime.

of His Crime.
Larned, Kan, Dec. lon that
awful night when Clyde Charles killed
George Neptune, did the animals
about the farm know what was going
on? Charles thinks they did and their
actions frightened him. They follow
ed him with the dead body and he had
to stop and drive them off.
Charles sold the officers while en-
route for the penitentiary, that on the
night of the murder, after he had
killed Neptune and had loaded his
body into the wheelbarrow and started
for the SandhIlls with it, all of the
horses and cattle in the pasture gath,
cred about him in a circle, and accom-
panied him the entire distance of his
gruesome Journey to the spot where he
buried the body, paving the earth and
believing and snorting in excitement,
as animals will when they smell blood.
At times he says he would have to
leave the body and chase the animals
away when they got too close. The
horror of it all would have driven a
normal mind insane on the spot, and
even Charles admitted that it got on
his nerves until chills ran up and
down his back and he says that once
he became SO affected after chasing
the stock away and on returning to-
wards the body that he ina ined the
corpse rose up to meet him as he
walked towards it.
Yet he continued his horrible work
without pause, and carried it through
to completion without waveriDg. The
stock continued to herd about the spot,
he says until late the next day, paving
the earth and believing and shifting
about the newly made grave as though
they knew something was wrong.

Two of Warden Codding's Pious Birds
Leave Their Cage. - -

Leavenworth. Kan, Dec. 31.-Arned
guards from the Kansas state prison at
Lansing are searching, for Thomas
Cook and Frank c. Moore. convicts who
escaped from the prison Thursday.
The men escaped by a clever ruse and
evidently after careful planning. Cook
stole an officers uniform and walked
north of the prison proper into the
brick yard where Moore was working.
Cook spoke to Moore and the latter
picked up some tools and walked along
with the man in the officers garb.
Guards thought Cook had Moore in
charge so they permitted the men to
escape from the brick yard unmolested.
Twenty minutes later it was learned
the men We're convicts. By the time a
posse was formed the convicts had a
good start. e.,
Cook was sentenced from Pottawat-
omie county for burglary. Moore was
convicted of assault and intent to rob-
Moore was known as a desperate pris-
oner. He escaped from Lansing in jan
uary. 1909, and was recaptured in In
diana last August.
