The Body Is a
Fat Factory

When a man or a woman grows fat
and huge, fiabby layers of this worthless
flesh make them miserable. it Is a GER
tain sign that somewhere within the
organism Of that man or woman there
is something radically wrong. The
healthy man or woman digests all that
is good in food and throws on In
natural manner all that is bad. This Is
what the digestive juices are made Tor
When these juices are weakened or TOO
powerful they can not get the GOOD
things out of the nourishment we eat,
and hence they turn into the blood that
which makes fat. 1t Is very simple TO
correct these juices in fat person. This
secret has been demonstrated In the
famous Marmola Tablets which now
have such a tremendous sale They
reduce fat at the rate of from u to 10
ounces a day They correct the faulty
Juices and give TO the body the very
nutrition IL needs. They remove fat In
a natural manner. but they do it so
quickly as to be almost beyond belief
You do not have to diet or exercise and
YOU may eat what you Will These
little tablets are the result of a demand
on the mart of the public for a form or
the famous Marmola prescription that
will permit a fat person to carry MS
fat reducer with him at all times, so
that each meal will add no more rat
TO his body. Marmola Tablets are sold
hy every druggist. or YOU may write the
MarmoIa Company, S1 Farmer Bldg,
Detroit Mich, and case VIII be sent
YOU privately by mail. The price OF
MarmoIa Tablets is Is cts. everywhere.

WE'VE GOT SCHE|B
DEAD TO RIGHTS IS
POLICE STATEMENT
Assert Case Against Accused
, Chauffeur Is Now Five
Times Stronger.

NEW YORK, June I-The case
against Harry Scheib, the chauffeur. &C.
cused Of killing his wife, Lillian, whose
body was found on Monday in a bathtub
in a vacant apartment, 81 East Sew
enty-eighth street. Is growing stronger
hourly. Deputy Police Commissioner
Dougherty is certain that Scheib will
have to answer for the deed. Until
Tuesday the prisoner will be unable to
get out on a writ of habeas corpus. If,
however,. at that time the police are
able to convince the magistrate that
their evidence is worth presenting to the
grand jury, Scheib will be formally held
on the murder charge.
The finding of a ring which Scheib
pawned in May may throw some light
on the case, and even more may be
gained from the testimony Of seven
year,old Eileen McCombie, a protege
of Mrs. Scheib. to whom she was known
as the 'lonely lady"
The ring may or may not be the we'd
ding ring which Scheib gave to his wife.
He declares 1t is not; that his ring was
inscribed III. A. S: to L. L." though
the latter are not Mrs. Scheib's maiden
initials. The present ring, pawned for
So, had no marks.
From little Eileen the police hope TO
prove that Scheib knows more than he
Is willing to tell.
The Scheibs rented the fiat in Septem-
Der, but It was not till Thanksgiving
that the McCombie girls parents real
lied how much Mrs. Scheib liked Eileen.
Eileen thinks It was shortly after
New Years that she went to the Scheih
fat and knocked in vain.

TAFT STARTS BIG
DEBATE OVER THE.
RECIPROCITY PACT
Appeal to People Opens
Series of Replies to
Foes in Congress.

President Taft began his big, final
appeal to the people for support Of his
reciprocity policy, with his speech in
Chicago last night.
His address was frank notice of ap-
peal to the country from the Republican
Senate. He made clear that he expected
the senate would defeat the treaty II 1t
could invent pretexts enough to do 1t,
and at the same time he declared that
the treaty would win II the people
would make their demand sufficiently
vigorous.
Public men anticipate that the candor
and vigor of the Executive call upon
the public for support, will tend to
widen the breach between him and
most of the members of his own party
in the Senate. At the same time there
Is general concession that the Presi-
dent made a very strong statement OF
the case, and that his argument will
prove one of the most effective in
the whole discussion. 1t will receive
early attention at the hands of both
stand pat and progressive critics OF the
reciprocity arrangement.
In this situation the President Is Ike
ly to be forced to go out and make
other speeches, from time to time, dur
ing the Senate's discussion of the meas
ure. in order to reply to those members
Of his own party who will express dis
sent from his policy.
In short, the Chicago speech marks
the beginning of joint debate between
the President and the leaders of his
own party in both House and Senate.
The breach Is emphasized as never be-
fore in a matter of public policy.
Democrats view the situation with
profound satisfaction: Republican poll
ticians feel that it simply makes more
patent, in the country's full view, the
gravity of a schism which has been ap-
parent for months. hut the full extent
and fundamental character of which
was hardly to be realized by observers
a distance from the theater of national
legislation.
The President boldly declared that the
opposition to the treaty, as voiced be-
fore Congress. is largely tnsincere; he
insisted that the lumber and print paper
interests are much the most important
OF the opposing forces, and he answered
the case OF each of these with an argu
ment that the treaty would be wholly
beneficial to general interests in this
country.
trade relations may benefit both coun-
tries instead of helping Canada at the
expense of the United States, the Presi
cent pointed TO the mutually benencia
relations flowing from the acceptance o.
Porto Rico. the Philippines, and Hawai-
into the commercial union of this coun
ny.
Trade has expanded by leaps ans
bounds. to the advantage of both sides
The States are the better Tor me corn
rnerciaI union: so are the islands. Ever
in the case of Cuba. he pointed out
though the measure of reciprocity IL
bounded by a reduction of % per cen
from general tariff rates and CORE
sponding concessions by Cuba. yet Tho
results have been an immense increast
in the commerce between the two coun
tries. Our markets in Cuba have beGI
extended to an extent that would hardly
have been believable.
