Eat and Get Thin

This is turning an old phrase face
about, bul modern methods of reducing
fat have made this revision possible.
II you are overfat and also averse
to physical eXertion during this warm
weather, and likewise fond of the
table and still want to reduce your ex-
cess flesh several pounds, do this: Go
to your druggist (or write the Mar
mola Co.. 2Sl Farmer Bldg, Detroit,
Mich} and give him COR send them) IS
cents. For this modest amount OF
money the druggist will put you in the
way OF satisfying your ambition for
a nice, trim, slim figure, without fear
of harm even on the hottest summer
days. He will hand you a large case
of Marrcla Prescription Tablets (COm-
pounded in accordance with the famous
Marmola Prescription). one of which
YOU must take after each meal and at
bedtime until you begin to lose your
fat at the rate of L to 16 ounces a
day That is all. Just go on eating
what you like, leave exercising to the
athletes, but take your little tablet
faithfully and without doubt that
nabby flesh will quickly t1ke unto it
self wings, leaving behind it your nat
ural self, neatly clothed in firm flesh
and trim muscles.

LYMAN Howe Pictures
At Columbia Tonight

Tonight will mark the return to the
Columbia Theater of the Lyman H.
Howe New York Hippodrome Travel
Festival. Not only are the pictures
new and illustrative of the events of
today, but they are presented with a
degree of realism attained by no one
else This is due as much to the
accurate accompaniment which stimuli
taneously appeals to the ear as the
pictures do to the eye. One OF the
many exclusive features Of the program
tonight will be a film showing what
Lincoln Beachy, the daring aviator, saw
during his recent sensational flight over
Wilkesbarre.
This picture, to secure which Mr.
Beachy was compelled to navigate his
flying machine with one hand while
operating the picture machine with the
other, is the first Of its kind in the his
tory of aviation. Equally satisfying will
be found the reproduction Of the corOn-
alton of King George, obtained by Mr..
HOwe's operators with the assistance
of the British government.
Included in the twenty other sub
jects to be presented. in which arc
many humorous ones, will be found
the cocoaDut industry in the Philip
pines gun practice on a dreadnOught;
the growth and development of flowers
new winter sports in Switzerland; the
real Japan, in natures coloring, and the
famous runaway train, which will be
repeated in Difference to numerous re-
quests.

COLUMBIA PLAYERS
ITO PRESENT COMEDY
PLAYED BY D|XEY
Facing the Music" Is Sc
lected For Production
This Week.

Henry E. Dixey's most successful far
cical comedy, Facing the Music" will
be the offering of the Columbia Players
this week, beginning tomorrow evening
at the Columbia Theater, A. H. Van
Buren in the role originated in this
country by Mr.. Dixey. Facing. the
Music is of English origin, its author
being James Henry Darnley. Its scenes
are laid in London, where John Smith,
an American horse owner, has a fiat.
This is the role Mr.. Van Buren will
play. Into the same building moves an
other John Smith, the curate of ST. An
drew's. George W. Barber will be the
curate. The wives of both Smiths are
enjoying vacation in the country. In
the height of his unbearable lonesome
ness, the American Smith invites a
friend, Dick Desmond, played by Ev-
erett Butterfield, to share his fat with
him, and the night before the play
opens the two undertake 10 paint the
town red"
AS consequence Smith finds that he
has been robbed of his pocketbook, and
suspects young woman whom he gal
lantly assisted to find her way home.
On reaching his fiat, he finds it in the
possession of a young woman. who an
nounces herself as Mrs. Smith. and.
jumping to the conclusion that she is
the woman who stole his pocketbook, he
calls in a detective, Sergeant Duffell.
These two parts will be played by Car
RE Thatcher anad George w. Barber.
respectively. As a matter of fact, Mrs.
Smith is the wife of the curate, who,
having been furnished with the new
address by her husband. upon her re-
expected return to London proceeds to
the house aand takes possession of the
apartment upon the door OF which ap-
pears the name of John Smith.
The detective prcceeds upon the the
orY that Mrs Smith and the Curate are
members of q notorious gang of thieves
for whom the police are searching, and
from this point on the action of the
piC>:e is fast and furious. At every step
the American is plunged deeper into the
mire by the Dangling of the detective.
whose theory constantly expands until it
embraces in the supposed gang of crooks
every character i'll the play.
In addition to :he assignment of parts
already enumerated, the cast will in
Clude John NJ. Kline. as Col. Duncan
Smith. the American Smiths uncle; Jes-
sic GlendennlnG. as Miss FotherinGay,
of the Biiuu Theater; Emclie Melville,

Novelty In Program
Offered At Cosmos

Heading a bill of vaudeville novelties
at the Cosmos this week is the famous
Booth Trio of comedy cyclists. Comedy,
however, is only part of their act, as, in
addition to the routine of tricks and
acrobatic riding, the act closes with one
of the greatest and most sensational
feats ever attempted in vaudeville or
circus. This consists of a double dive,
on a wheel, from the top of a twenty
foot pair of stairs.
Another act that is in the way of an
aCrObatc surprise is presented by He'd
der and Son, the Beau Brummel Aero
bats" who work along lines entirely
original. The act has been a big hit
everywhere.
The Scissor Trio is a singing and dane
ing turn with many costume changes.
Nivacious Kitty Rose, the singing mon
ologist, will make her initial appearance
to Washington audiences. Her manner
Of working and putting over her Clev-
er parodies has earned her an enviable
title in the vaudeville world. MOzarto,
the double instTumentalist, has an excel
lent novelty musical act. AS this week S
added attraction the management offer

President Taft and Social
Washington Hosts
to Visitors.

An unusual spectacle for midsummer
was presented by the White House In
gala attire last night on the occasion
Of the dinner and reception given by
the President in honor of Admiral Togo,
Of Japan.
Quantities of Japanese lanterns
palms, ferns, and blossoming plants
transformed the entire lower floor and
terraces of the historic mansion into
a veritable fairyland. On the terraces
boxes Of flowing red geraniums formed
an effective touch of color, and in the
state dining-room huge placques OF red
gladiolius and red-topped silver cande-
labra formed the principal decorations
the red in compliment to the national
colors of the distinguished son of the
Flowery Kingdom.
The Marine Band played throughout
the dinner, departing about 10 o'clock
for Lexington. KY, to keep an engage
merit Following their departure, the
Engineer Band. stationed on the east
terrace, played throughout the remain
der of the evening.
The President and Admiral Togo, re-
ceived the guests at the reception,
standing at the north entrance to the
East Room, a distinct innovation in the
order of things, as the Blue Room has
long been recognized as the official re-
ception room. Col. Spencer Cosby, u.
s. A, and Major Butt made the presen-
tations to the President and the guest
of honor. the guests passing on down
the line through to the terraces or the
dining-room.
Gathering Is a
Representative One.
Despite the very general absence from
town of Washington society folk as a
whole, the long session of Congress
made possible the gathering together
of a representative company. The Con-
gressional and army and navy circles
were we'll represented and the light
summer toilettes of the feminine guests
blended we'll with the brilliant military
trappings so predominant among the
men. The occasion seemed to demand
more than the white summer uniform
usually worn at this time of the year
by our heroes CT land and sea. for they
were all respIendert in their brilliant
blue and gold full-dress regalia-

his leave of his distinguished host
shortly after II O'Clock.
