Fat Defeating
Extraordinary

SLENDER Margaret Knolly, now,
II you please. The fascinating
leading lady of the Bijou, now
more fascinating than ever, aston.
ished all her friends on Broadway
the other day by presenting to
their admiring gaze svelt and will
lowy form in place of the plump,
not to say fat, outlines with which
she gaily sailed away to new tri-
umphs and foreign shores last
January. After a good deal of
diplomatic cross examination from
interested fat acquaintance the
secret was cautiously whispered to
a few dear friends, with the result
that everybody knows it now. 1t
was not exercise, nor fasting, nor
sea air, nor worry about her new
venture that had brought about
this wonderful willowy change in
the charming Margaret; no, none
of these; nothing but a simple mix
ture which all good druggists are
familiar with and can supply at
small cost, to-wit: One-half ounce
Marmola, one-half ounce Fluid Ex-
tract Cascara Aromatic, and three
and one-half ounces Peppermint
Water. Grown folks need a tea
spoonful after meals and at bed
time" explained the now slender
Margaret. 1T is simply wonder
full. 1t takes off the fat quickly,
as much as a pound day, and
keeps it off. You can eat what you
like, too. In that respect it is I'M
like anything of the kind | ever
heard of, and besides it has an
other splendid feature-it is en-
tirely harmless. and will not cause
wrinkles. / think it is about as es-
sential a toilet article for the

get thinner as face powder. In
order to get the best results, how

after you get home"

the DAIRY COW.

According to the last year book
of the Department of Agriculture,
there are 21,72o, 900 mich cows
in the United States, and these are
worth $7o2, 945, 900. 90. The mag
nitude of the industry can perhaps
be best understood when it is con-
sldered that these cows produce
yearly about $1,000, 900, 900. 90
worth of dairy products.
There is no other branch of diver
sifed agriculture so important to the
progress of a community. The
fertility of the soil can best be main
tanned by the liberal use of barn.

dairying is also more remunerative
than other branches of farming
when properly carried on.

Where formerly the cream was
ripened and churned into butter un-

wonderful improvement in the
