SNOW MAIDEN's COMPANION

COMMANDER PEARY has an interesting
story about meeting friend of his up in
the frozen North during his last dash for the
pole. About fifteen years ago he brought with
him on one of his first returns from polar ex-
petition little Eskimo girl of about ten She
was the nurse and playfellow of his daughter,
born in the Arctic night and known to the
world as Snow Maiden" For a year or so she
lived at the Peary home in Washington on
12th-st., and Mrs. Peary took her about town
showing the sights of the city, wonders that
We're to her as a glimpse behind the scenes in
fairyland
But when Peary started on his trip the next
year she was homesick longing for her snow
huts for her fur clad friends for the northern
lights that CLEAN above the towering turrets
of ice. or perhaps she preferred the cry of the
bear on the wind swept foe to the whir and
rush of the electric car at the corner. So he
took her home.
Last year when he was in the arctic regions
he met her. She was married, had two chill
dren and was living in snow hut and telling
her children in the long night of the wonderful
place where white men lived and the sun shone
every day.

7 axe Off the Fat
Where it Shows

Most women suffer much humiliation
because of great quantities of fat, so
located 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 toler-
ated either in business or social af-
fairs. Women may not know it, but
men when they see a fat woman pass
sympathetic remarks about her They
do not mean to be unkind or to seem
humanity, but it is natural for a man
to dislike fat on a woman. Where fat
shows the most there is where II must
be removed, and as quickly as posi-
BILE. The hot weather dresses seem to
be made for the fat woman's misery
and the slender womans delight. They
expose all the charms of woman and
her uglness as well. Exercise 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 it's sponsors
Is now being sold in tablet form to
meet the demand of the public for this
style of treatment. These little tab
let's go into your system just like food.
They stop the stomach and digestive
apparatus from producing fat and re-
duce the fat upon the body at the rate
of from 10 To Is ounces day They
are harmless and can be carried III
your purse and taken even after you
have INDUCED i'm a hearty meal away
from home. They are sold at all DRUG
stores at 75 cents a case. or If you

TO AMEND DRUG LAW.
Present Statute Proves to be Embar-
assina to Department.

IL is probable that the next session
of the state legislature will be called
upon to amend one of the laws which
was passed during the session oil
1909. namely: the one providing for
the appointment of two state drug
Inspectors and one drug chemist.
For the past several weeks the state
dairy and food department has been
puzzling over the question of selecting
4 drug chemist. 1t has been their de-
sire to appoint state Chemist Robin
son to the position and keep the WORK
under one director. but the question
of whether Mr.. Robinson could draw
two salaries from state positions nat
urally arose. and the matter was
referred to the attorney general for 3
verbal decision.
The attorney general saw, as Mr.
Lille does. the necessity for keepins
the work under one head and the
danger of a division of authority IN
the state laboratory II two chemists
were placed I'm charge. He there
fore suggested that the dairy and food
commission take the matter before
the next session OF the legislature ana
determine whether the present law
could not be so amended that 1t
