NJ EW YORK.--Why are there SO
" many tat women?" man rushing
upon his doom asked this question.
He spoke of the increasing prevalence
of large feminine persons. not with
admiration, but with profound dismay.
"Why are there SO many fat womenr
he reiterated. Il have watched tho
passing throng In several cities and
while one fat man was passing have
counted not fewer than four fat wom-
en-. This ratio has held true when
ever and wherever | have had occa-
sion to take observations.
These women are, for the most
part. between thirty-1ve and fifty-five
years old. They either waddle ponder
ously or propel themselves forward
with not the slightest perceptibie
freedom OF motion. looking the while
like statues moving on rollers. The
alarming corpulence Of our middle
aged women Is getting serious. They
seem to be fattening for a slumber-
GUS old age.
"If one looks about in New York
theaters and restaurants the conclu-
sion that the New York women seen
there are about twenty pounds over
weight looms large and Inevitable.
And In those restaurants lies the ex-
planation OF the phenomena. We eat
too much in New York. because the
best food in the country Is shipped

Western Cities Are to Have Pennies

q ALT LAKE CITY. Utah.-After
- years of turning up noses at cheap
people of the east who would need
such q small coin as a penny in do.
ing their daily business, there has
been developed real call Ia the west
for these same coins. 1t is largely
due to the feeling of the housewives
that much money could be saved in
their buying at the shops and In other
ways II they had the small pieces OF
money. A movement has been put
under way for the banks to import
the coins, and some of the shops are
already advertising wares for sums
that change into pennies.
When an inquiry was recently made
into this subject by persons Interested

pennies were In Salt Lake City. Many
of them were held by the banks. which
said they had difhcuity In disposing Of

portions that the centrally located the

tween the acts.
The first moving picture shows were
established In 1908. The first neigh

ALL MANKIND OWES SERVICE

Of us has but small part in making
himself what he Is. The generations
past, the environment around, the God
above. the Christ within-these are
the principal factors in the building up
Of every really great and worthy life.
What hast thou" writes Paul aagin.
which thou didst not receiver" Every
man owes such debt to the race
from which he springs. the world in
which he lives and the God who hath
followed him with blessings from the
hour of his birth, that it can only be
discharged by the complete conse
Grafton of all he has and is to that will
of God which, when 1t is completely
accomplished, will be manifested as
the reign Of righteousness and peace
throughout all human life. No words

The man who believes that the
world owes him living. sadly needs
to change eis mind. Most adherents
of this philosophy find that sooner or
later it leads to shipwreck and disas-
ter. Only the man who has come to
see that he owes the world a life. and
is living to pay the debt. has secured
the eternal peace and progress of his
life by linking himself with THAT liv.

New Testament very distinctly pro
claims Christ's deity. In the Gospel
Of John. I:3. 1, this truth Is made
remarkably clear and pronounced.
Rev. DR.. G. l. Scofleld. in referring to
that passage. says: I'VE have the
announcement concerning the deity Of

was with God, and the word was God.
Now there Is no explaining away OF
that statement, and believe that the
hostility manifested by the forces de-
structive to Christianity, within and
without the church, to the Gospel OF
John, Is due primarily to the fact
that there is no avoiding or evad
