lake Off the Fat
Where IL Shows

Most women suffer much humiliation
because of great quantities of fat, so To-
Gated that no matter how they dress,
everybody sees that they are abnormal.
This is the day of the slender figure, and
fat women are simply not tolerated either
in business or social affairs. Women may
not know it, but men when they see a
fat woman pass them on the street or in
public places make all manner of sympa-
thetic remarks about her. They do not
mean to be unkind or to seem unmanIy,
but it is natural for a man to dislike fat
on a woman. Where fat shows the most
there is where it must be removed. and
as quickly possible. This season.
dresses seem to be made for the fat wo-
mans misery and the slender woman $
delight. They expose all the charms Of
woman and her uglinesS as we'll Exer-
else and diet will not remove fat. This
has been proved. The Famous Marmola
prescription which has met with such
phenomenal success and has so many OF
our society women as its sponsors, is now
being sold in tablet form to meet the de-
mand of the public for this style of treat
ment. These little tablets go into your
system just like food They stop the
stomach and digestive apparatus from
producing fat and reduce the Tat upon
the body at the rate of from II to 10
ounces a day. They are harmless and
can be carried in your purse and taken
even after you have INDUCED in hearty

SCHOOL FOR AVlATORS.
OrviIIe Wright Will Be Dean of New
Institution.

New York. Oct. 6.-Before leaving
for Washington, Wilbur Wright de-
clared that besides making arrange
ments for the extensive manufacture
of aeroplanes in Ohio, he would estab-
lish a school for the instruction of
aviators. He sees a great future
ahead for flying machines, both for
pleasure and practical uses, but ne
does not believe that any one should
be permitted to operate one of them
without careful training and this is one
of the reasons why he has hesitated to
build machines for enthusiastic
novices.
The Wright brothers have received
many orders for flying machines, but
only a few have been accepted, the
inventors believing that the best plan
is to supply machines only to those
who know how to operate them While
Wilbur Wright was here he received
offers from not less than fifty differ
ent persons, all of them offering large
sums if he would agree to make GER
tain airship flights. Mr.. Wright look
ed upon a flying exhibition for money
as a circus feat and he refused to &C
cept any of them. These offers have
come from nearly every western city.
1t is certain, however. that the
Wrights will greatly extend their Day
ton factory and incorporate in it a
school for training operators. This
will be done as soon as Orville Wright
returns from Germany.

MAY NEVER FIGHT.
Conditions of Jeffries-Jackson Meeting
May Prevent Bout.

New York. Oct. 6.-Eastern sporting
men are not at all certain that there
ever Will be a fight for the heavyweight
championship between James J. JEFF
fries and Jack Johnson. Recent cable
grams from Paris that Jeffries expect
ed a purse of $780, 900 to be offered, to-
sether with Johnsons repeated asser-
lions that he would claim a lions share
of any purse offered, have partially
confirmed the belief or fear that the
two big men will not agree on terms A
purse of S150.000 is considered out of the
question. Jeffries styles himself as ''un-
defeated champion of the world" and
his friends declare that this is suffi-
cient indication that he will insist on
debating the terms and will demand the
champions portion of any stake.
Hugh Mcintosh. the Australian pro-
moter, left London last night for Paris
to see Jeffries and further increase his
bid for $55000 for the fight At the
same time. Jeffries left Paris for Lon
don and they passed each other on the
way. 1t is now understood that JEFF
fries will sail for this country next Sat-
urday and his representative here de-
clares that Immediately upon his arrival
in New York he will be ready to sign
final articles with Johnson and con-
slider proposals from promoters.

Finding of Stray Porker May Indicate
Hog Thieves at Work.

S. Tray Porker, a vagrant, residence

He came into public disgrace yester-

There the animal awaits a claimant,
who is willing to pay pound fees, and

Just how the animal came to be in

No hogs are allowed within the cor

DUE TO BAD WATER.
Doctors Think They Have Discovered
Source of Pellagra.

Washington, Oct. 6.-Important dis
closures as to the result of an investi-
cation of pellagra, the new disease
which has become prevalent in many
states of the south. and which has beer
discovered to exist to an alarming de-
gree at the general hospital for the
insane at Peoria, and other public in
Washington within the next few days.
Prominent army surgeons who have
made a close study of the cases at
Peoria practically have reached the
conclusion that while corn and it's prod
ucts figure largely in causing the dread
disease, there is nothing to indicate
that spoiled corn or corn which has
fermented enters into the trouble. 1t
practically has been determined that
patients afflicted with pellagra have
first undergone the infection in the in
testines; that the disease springs from

brought about by a polluted water sup
