Why Is Fat

Is it because one is born with the ten
dency? Or is It one of "lifes trials or
is It due to just plain. hearty appetite?
The doctors say not any one of these
phrases the question correctly. They say
fat IS because the fat persons digestive
organs are defective. Such organs, 1t
seems. don't change the fatty foods eaten
by stout persons into heat and energy, as
they should. Instead the food fats pass
on into the system unconsumed- Hence
fat layers accumulate under the skin in
quiet spots. such as the chin, abdomen,
shoulder blades. etc.
Let that digestive defect be corrected
and the formerly fat person goes back TO

treatment which horses near Vernal are
subjected. In his letter he says il is not

Instead of the driver taking the horse

From many other sections of the state

reports of cruelties to horses have been

ASSAY OFFICE REPORT.
Has Paid Out S94,-
1855 for Bullion So Far.

That the L ted States assay office
III Salt Lake has not been established IN
vain is shown in the first monthly report
of the office which was made up yesteT-
day. During the month which ended yes
terday 6.4966S ounces of gold was received
at the local assay office for which the
government paid out s94. -96 %.
The greater part of this gold was the
January output of the Consolidated Mer-
cur Mining company. The amount Of
money paid this one company alone Tor
their gold during the month was little
more than S65 coo. The remaining amount
of money paid out was for gold received
in smaller amounts.
Appreciation for establishment of a
United States assay office here has been
shown by the mining companies Of the
state. Heretofore it was necessary for
them to express their monthly output to
the mint in Denver. Now the heavy eX-
pense of shipping bullion east is saved by
the local companies.

Fill for Steel Viaduet.

All the great amount of earth taken
out of ParkeT's cut is being hauled
down toward the city and is being used
to fill in to a height of something like
forty or fifty feet for the steel viaduct
to be built across the Union Pacific
right of way.
We went down and watched the cars
dumped. A large gang of Japs were
busy at the work of placing the loads
on the high embankment. Then we
went down to the Ogden depot of the
road and, as we walked along, Mr.
Bamberger pointed out where his road
had hauled in loads and loads of earth
and gravel and cinders to make the
street crossings in the city better and
safer and dryer. Proudly he pointed
out the conveBiences of the neat, clean,
new depot building in Ogden, and said
that it was his plan to have smaller.
but just as neat and comfortable and
inviting, stations and waiting rooms at
all the stations along his line when the
plans were fully realized.
As We walked slowly back to the cut
where the steam shovel was at work,
at which place we later caught the
hOmebound train, Mr.. Bamberger told
of the long, weary struggle he had en-
dured in building the road. He told of
the many difficulties he encountered,
and how they were overcome, some by
one method and some by another. He
told of how many times he was. for in
teTvals, almost completely discouraged
and then how he had faced his difficult
ties and started anew.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1909-02-28

as two trains. composed of twenty-five
cars. could haul the dirt away, the big
shovel was eating its way through what
is known as Parker's cut just on the
Ogden city corporation line. The big
shovel was unusually hungry yesterday,
or Il had reached a strata of earth pc
cuIiarly to it's liking. Anyway, it de-
vOUred close to 1,S00 cubic yards of the
sandy soil during the day, and the man
who was acting as chauffeur yesterday
told me that its average days feed is
about 1900 cubic yards.
1t doesn't eat on Sunday, but il has
shown a regular average appetite every
other day. 50 the man said, for the last
six months, and it has almost succeed
ed in making this long, deep cut wide
enough its entire length for the double
tracking that viii be put in in connec-
ton with eIectrifying the railroad. Then
the cut is to be deepened six or seven
feet.
Right at this place. Mr.. Bamberger
explained. is where most of the work
will have to be done to get the road
ready for electrifying. Lots of the poles
and lots of the rails are piled up at
various points ali along the line The
setting of the poles and stringing the
trolley wire and laying the rails for the
parallel track will all be easy work.
The big job is that which falls to the
steam shovel gang and, while a mon
strOus lot of work has already been aC-
Cvmplished, there is still a, whole lot to
do. Every cut must be widened suffi-
GENTLY for the double track, and there
are a number of short cuts, but deep
ones, between the ogden city line and
Salt Lake City that must be widened.
And Mr.. Bamberger explained that
the object will be not to widen the cuts
just enough for the tracks, but to
widen them to the extent that there will
be liberal slope in all places, guaran-
teeing safety from slides at all seasons
of the year.
