GIRL WHO is THIN
NEEDSFOUR THINGS
Air, Sleep, Absence from
Worry, and Exercise.

''Why am l So thin" writes a reader
of this paper. II eat quite heartily.
There seems to be no reason why 1 should
not weigh as much as other girls of my
height"
Many thin people have very good ap-
petites. That doesn't mean that they
have good digestiohs or adequate powers
of assimilation A hearty appetite is a
bad sign. rather than a good one, If, for
long time no increase in weight has
been noticed. If the appetite were nor
NAL and other conditions favorable
there ought TO he an increase in weight
providing the food were of a suitable
kind But a girl may say she has
hearty appetite for coffee and pie or
pickles and lobster salad. and she may
eat large quantities OF these delicacies
without the appetite being normal in any
way Sometimes the liver is to blame,
or some other organ is not functioning
properly. disturbing the digestion and
creating a craving for plenty of food, but
not for food OF a nourishing kind.
-Four Needs.
The girl who is too thin needs four
things-plenty of fresh air, plenty OF
sound sleep. absence from worry, and ex-
ercise. If she has these the food Ques-
ton will easily take care of itself. She
will want the food that is good for her
and crave starChy, fat-making edibles.
Fresh air is the most important factor
of all and the thin girl can't get too
much Of il. She should avoid being cold
as cold is one Of her enemies, and she
should wear sweater leggings, warm pet
ticoats and wristets or gauntlets with
her gloves when necessary, but she
should insist on having fresh air.
The thin girl ought to sleep ten hours
out of the twenty-fOuT. and she should
sleep in a room with the window open.
She should have plenty Of covering on her
bed, and the hot water bottle at her
feet. when she goes to bed. The thin
girl doesn't want to try TO be heroic;
ice-coId baths are not for her-nor very
hot ones. for that matter.
should Not Train for Athletics.
Nor should she undertake exhausting
walks or try to train for athletic cham
piOnships OF any kind. She should have
steady calisthenic exercises for half an
hour every day-ifteen minutes in the
morning and fifteen minutes at night;
and II she can she should indulge her
self 10 the utmost in the way of maps
during the day
The thin woman should be careful not
to upset her digestion by eating anything
that does not agree with her. Tea and
coffee have no nUtritive value and the
latter is indiS2stible in its ordinary form.
Cocoa is the pest thing the thin woman
can drink. The rest of the diet must be
of the most nourishing kind, consisting
largely Of foods containing starch and
sugar, such as good fresh butter. rich
milk, cream, raw and cooked fruits, mac

taat has not been witnessed in this
community since the days of Fat
Holland, when he edited the Record
and when Raymond and Ely were
conspicuous figures in these dig
gings.
The Record has not doubted for
one minute, since it was lea ned
that Ernest r. Woolley was en-.
smeering the deal, but what i;
would be consummated sooner or
later and upon basis highly salts
factory to all parties concerned, for
we recognize in him a man of ex-
traordinary business acumen and
tact; a man in every way qualified
TO do things and do them upon a
large scale. Our acquaintance with
Woolley dates back for the past
ten or twelve years; we knew him
when he was an obscure mining

with indomitable courage and with
a discrimination to reach the ton
rung of the ladder of success. we
nave felt for some time that he
would some day occupy prominent
place among the premier mining
magnates of the country
We have been satisfied that in
this Phoebe deal Mr. Wolley rep
resented men who are leaders in
the financial world and who, there
tore, are in position to swing any
mining or smelling enterprise, no
matter what the magnitude might
pc; that they are men who are
prepared, and who will, place Phoebe

big mining camps of the United
States. The public has not yet been

What Phoebe has lacked in the
past has been men interested here
who had sufficient capital behind
them to open the mines upon a
magnitudinal scale, and after hav-
ing done so, provides facilities for
the treatment of the vast tonnages
of low grade ore and the market
Ing OF the product of mill or smelt-

also the holdings of the Consolid-

The examination of titles to the
properties involved in the merger
is still incomplete, but the attor-

on this matter expect to be ready

Penny MURDER
MYSTERY HAS BEEN
CLEARED UP
DISAPPEARANCE FATHER AND
SON CAUSED EXCITEMENT
SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

Eleven years ago all southern
Utah was thrown into excitement
over the strange and sudden disap-
pearance of e. w. Penny and son
George. The father and son dis
appeared in a way that baffled all
attempts of the officers and the
public in general to solve In sup
port of the theory of murder sew
eral arrests were made at the time.
but no evidence of any kind was
available to sustain such a charge
against the ones accused. Even
team, harness and wagon with
which the two were travelling could
not be located Their disappearance
was as complete as though thev
had dropped into mid-ocean. Now
comes word that the skeletons of
the two unfortunate men have been
brought to light.
1t appears that the recent heavy
rains in this section has been the
means of washing away the dirt and
debris which had covered the re-
mains, leaving the bones exposed
and by this double murder has
been brought to light.
The bodies were discovered near
Newhouse about three weeks ago
and were turned over to the ms
ice there The matter was then
put in the hands of County Attor-
ney Knox, who in turn notified the
county attorney of Millard county.
These officials have been working
diligently on the case in an effort
TO uncover clue as to those re-
sponsible for the crime.
Last Thursday, Alvin Penny
surviving son, went to Newhouse
and returned in the evening with
the remains. He is positive thew
are those of his father and brother
as he was able to identify tho
shoes found as those worn nv his
iather and brother at the time thew
left home. Mr.. Penny continued
on to his home at Kanosh
November IA, 1899, e. w. Penny
and son George left their home in
hanash, Millard county, on a pros
pecting trip. They travelled by team
ana wagon and were headed for
wan Wah Springs district. MANY

they passed here enroute TO the
springs. Arriving at their destina-
ton they soon completed their work
ana prepared to return home Sew
eral sheep men saw them well nm
their road back, but that was tho
last ever seen or heard of them.
Mr.. Burton, then sheriff of Reavor
county aided by private citizens
made fruitless search covering
months of time. All hope of even
nhdlng the men was given IN
some months afterward Indians nm
covered a wagon which had been
buried in a wash just west of Mil
ORD. This proved to be the Penny
wagon. Interest was again revived

Frederic Thompson's production of
Polly of the Circus" which win be
seen for the first time at the opera
house Friday, March "a. While the
play carries with it the atmosphere of
the sawdust ring and its accessories,
which is usually more or less prosaic
and far from being romantic or SEN
dmental, there has been woven into
it by its author, Margaret Mayo, a
touching romance which is frocibly
and capably brought out. There is an
ideal heroine for a love affair, Polly,
the pet of the circus, and afterward
the bride of a minister. Polly is not
