IF YOU ARE FAT AND
HOT READ THIS ARTICLE

There is no necessity of fat people suf-
fering as they do. Most fat people are so
goodnatured they do not care how they
look or how they get along during the
hot weather. As matter of fact there
is natural fat reducer that in the past
several years has been demonstrating that
that it will reduce fat and not tear down
the body or leave big, fabby rolls of skin
and wrinkles. This method is the fla
nous Marmola prescription, which is
now prepared in tablet form to meet the
demands of fat people in the summer and
to enable them at all times to take their
fat reducer after each meal. One of these
little tablets taken after a meal turns that
meal into good food for the blood and
stops all fat-producing elements from go
ing into the system. Marmola Tablets
has an army Of men and women who
testify to its success, and you would tire
reading what they say Of its triumphs.
Marmola tablets not only stop producing
fat in the body but they reduce flesh at
the rate of from II to Is ounces day.
They are harmless and do nothing but
assist nature to give to the body the
it requires. They are sold
at all drug stores, price 70 cents, or you

other. In 1894 under the provisions of
the infamous Wilson tariff law congress
authorized the levying and collection of
taxes on incomes for the support of the
general government, and this included
taxes upon incomes derived from state
and municipal bonds, one of the remain
ing sources Of state taxation. The court
held this to be the levying Of direct
tax and could be done only by appor-
tionment upon the population, and was,
therefore, unconstitutional. The language
Of the proposed amendment gives the
congress power to tax incomes from

to the federal government means liability
to double taxation. | might extend still
further valid objections to this proposed
amendment. What shall or will our
representative do about this when
brought before the legislature! Every

Not Mrs. o'Connor of Brattleboro.

Mrs. Timothy Quill of 6S5 High street
and Mrs. John Conner of Brattleboro, VT,
sisters, have not seen each other since they
separated As years ago in Ireland, have
spent the past week in a happy reunion
in Holyoke at the home of Mrs. Quill.
When Mrs. Common left the home OF her
parents in Ireland in 1862 her name was
Miss Nora Hallisey and it was then that
she separated from her younger sister,
Miss Margaret Hallisey. She came FIRST
to Newburyport and for time kept in
communication with her sister. Later she
was married and moved to Brattleboro,
where she lost track of her sister and
could no longer write to her The sister,
Mrs. Quill, had meanwhile been married
in Ireland and came to this country seven
years ago, coming directly to Holyoke.
Attempts to locate the sister who had
preceded her to America were for many
years unsuccessful and it was not until
a few months ago that letter from Mrs.
Connor to friends in Ireland, who had
also been communicated with by Mrs
in communication. As result, Mrs. Con-
nor came to Holyoke, where she has spent
the past week. Mrs. Conner is now
widow and has had II children, five of
whom are living. Mrs. Quill has four
daughters and one son. all living in Hol-
yoke. In the AS years that the two sisters
have been separated, many events of fam
ilv history have transpired and they have
had much to tell each other and have had
great pleasure in recalling the DAYS of
their childhood in Ireland. Springfield

Evidently some mistake has been made
in the name of the Brattleboro woman as
Mrs. John O'Connor of 40 Clark street
does not know of any such sister and has
not attended such reunion as is described |

John O'Connor in town.

QUESTIONS ASKED
THE CANDIDATES
Messrs. Bacon and Stafford
"Heckled" by Col. Haskins.
EIGHT PERTINENT INQUIRIES

How Do They Stand Upon Question o
Trunk Lines-What Is Their Attitude
on Specific Labor Measures-Some
thing About the Federal Income Tax
Editor of Reformer:-
It has been publicly announced tina
Mr.. Robert G. Bacon and Mr.. j. G. Stat
ford are candidates Of the republican
party Of this town for representative tx
the next general assembly of this state
They seem to be agreed upon severa
propositions of general character that
are liable to come before the legislature
in specified form.
1. Both are in accord with the. pledges
of the republican party as set forth IN
its platform at the last state convention
So should all good republicans be:
2. They both favor legislation that
will continue the present system of high
way building, and make it possible to
proper, but how do they stand upon the
question of providing means, and how,
for the building of line of state roads
on either side of the mountain from
Massachusetts, to the Canadian border,
and several similar roads running east
and west for connecting links?
3. Will they. oppose any attempt to
deprive the public service commission,
created in 1908, of the power it has now,
and would make it more effective. Is
there any good citizen who would not
act otherwise?
4. Mr.. Stafford it is said, being a
farmer, will naturally favor legislation
for the protection of the interests of agri-
culture. I shall assume that Mr.. Bacon,
although lawyer, would do the same,
as any representative ought to do in the
interest Of the greatest industry of our
state, and the nation. Such statements
are too general. What the voters ought
to know is: How will they do this? Will
they, or either Of them, favor the estab-
lishment by law of a course of study in
agriculture in our public schools? Would
they establish school of agriculture to
that already established through the
generosity of Mr.. Vail of Lyndon, at
Lyndon? What are they ready to do by
means of legislation for the conservation
of our forests and water powers? Will
they favor the purchase of lands, in one
or all of the counties, by the state for
experimental forestry and to serve as an
reforest their own barren lands?
5. It is claimed that both favor a !
Square DEAL" which will place everyone |
on the plane of equality, as nearly as
may be. That is proper and right. But
what sort of legislation will they favor to
accomplish such a .meritorious object?
Will they amend the present grand list
laws which in their practical operation,
notwithstanding the vigilance of the
listers, bear most heavily upon the COM
paratively poor man and those who re-
turn an absolutely true and Just inven-
tory? Will they work for abolishing Off
sets for debts owing as recommended by
the very able commission appointed by
the governor four years ago and who
made their report over two years ago?
6. Both candidates, without specifying
wherein. favor legislation that will work

among the most energetic Of corporations
in looking after the rpan incapacitated in
the performance Of duty, and recognition
Of the obligation is general.
The debt owed by the public to the
man in overalls is large, but sometimes
disregarded. His work calls for no dis
play OF pyrotechnics to attract attention;
II is generally prosaic and frightfully
hard. Upon the faithful performance OF
it depends the worlds advancement.
Credit for mighty feats OF construction
properly go TO the brain that conceived
and planned and executed them; but
thought should be given the men in over
alls who did the work, braved the dan
ger, endured the toll, and wrought into
splendid realization the finished produc
ton. The man in overalls as he returns
from work grimy with toll, weary and
uncouth IN appearance, often is subjected
to many little evidences of the existence
OF a petty caste of clothes. His next door
neighbor, clerk, may hook sneeringly
upon his badge of toll, careless of the
important and honorable part played by
this ordinary workman; the latter, too,
anxious that his children shall not be
ashamed because their father looks less
may stink in through the back to escape
the public gaze.
But there is no dishonor in honest dirt
The workman plays an important and es
sential part. Sneers at overals are out of
place. In America, at least, the work
man can look any millionaire square in
the eyes in the conviction that his work
is relatively quite as important. Let
there be mutual recognition of both and
there will be less of class clash with the
elevation of the laborer to his rightful
position in the esteem of the community.

SCRAMBLE FOR CONTROL
OF COUNTY BANK

Following the death of State Bank
Examiner Van Fleet there has been
a lively scrimmage for the posses
sion of the Eureka county bank and
its assets. Van Fleet had appointed
Charles German as custodian. Upon
the death of Van Fleet the county
commissioners and Judge Breen i'm
mediately got busy 1t appears
from the kilograms that as soon as
the state bank examiner died Judge
Breen advised the county commits
sioners what could be done and they
took the matter in their own hands
and have virtually thrown the Gus
todian out of possession. They, with
the sheriff, held a meeting Monday
evening and by resolution passed de-
c1ared the bank in their own hands.
The next morning they took the
bank over and now the custodian
and the governor and the district
attorney general are busy at the
supreme court getting out an in
junction, restraining orders and any
old writ that will sustain the state
in the law and place the bank in
their hands.

Nina to look over the strike situa-
ton, which has not affected the
Southern Pacific shops. The Tono-

ever, using the Nina shops for re-
pair work since its own shops were
burned. and this makes the situa-
ton rather delicate, as there is a
possibility of the Southern Pacific
shop men declining to handle the
motive power brought in by the
strike breakers.

FIND FREE QUARTZ
ON BOOTH LEASE

Four feet of the best looking
quartz yet encountered in the Booth
Leasing company's workings has
been opened during the last few
days in raise from. the 150-foot
level near the Red Top line. 1t is
the typical dark gray quartz that
usually leads to ore in this district
and is very promising as a forerun-
ner for a pay shoot. Assays now
show from 81 to Sc, which is en-
couraging, considering that the
quartz zone is just being entered. If
pay values are not found in the
raise more depth will be secured
by sinking, to further prospect the
quartz.
