A SHORT SERMON TO
FAT FOLKS

ITO them that hath shall be given is a
sentence that applies to fat people very
neatly. 1t is common knowledge that once
a human being begins to fatten up, to
what they have already Is added more
than they want until finally a stage is
reached where reduction must be made or
decided disadvantage results.
Then comes forward the ages-old query,
"Reduce-but how?' To the uniformed
nothing suggests itself but the ito them)
twin evils-less e~ating-more activity. They
contemplate a more OF less lengthy siege
OF dieting and exercising. So Il may be
said safely that every man or woman in
the land now undergoing the fattening-
up process has his or her mental eye
fixed obviously on that not far distant day
when he or she viii have 10 don the ashes
and sackcloth OF reduction"
This is not an enlivening prospect ana so
II Is with considerable satisfaction that
we announce the emancipation Of the fat.
Nowadays one may reduce much or little.

In check, absolutely stationary. without
doing a tap OF exercise, missing a single
meal, doing a particle Of harm or causing
a solitary wrinkle All that's required, as
hundreds testify, Is the taking after meals
