LOSES FAT --- WINS FORTUNE. The Amazing Story of How Marjorie Hamilton Com pelled to Reduce Her Weight or Lose Her Employ ment Found a Drugless Treatment for Making
 Fat Vanish
ciety Women Rejoice Over Their New SI
of Disappointed Patrons But th
 Smiles and Joy of Those Who Came to Her Not in Vain


This word of mouth. this whispered name from fat women to fat womens has been my best friend and my great est advertiser.
 My patrons are not women alone; Thousands of men owe their regained health and a reasonable waist-llne to me. You would be surprised If l were to show you the names on my books,- names of men famous in business, in fessions. It is not always vanity that prompts them to take my treatment, but more often the desire to be rid ot an incubus of flesh that worries ana annoys them"
 As sat spellbound beside Miss Ham ilton, mere slip of girl, apparently insf out of her teens. listening to her story that sounded like a dream, but which is absolutely verified by the facts in the case, 1 marveled at thls achievement, this all-conquer1ng 1altn in her ideals that made her rise to thiy opportunity. Without money, without influence. without special buslhess knowledge, she has built herselt, ouI of her own brain fortune and place

DRESS OF JAPANESE BRIDES
White Worn for Part of the Ceremony,
 But for Strange Reason

From the Oriental Review.
 Brides in Japan follow the same GUS tom which prevails in the wetsern world that of wearing white at the wedding ceremony, at least during a part of II. But the significance attached to the choice of this color is quite different on the two sides of the world
 The Japanese bride Is dressed first .n in resplendent garments of white silk. the sleeves of the costume usually being about three feet in length, while the sash, an important feature, measures about eleven feet in length.
 But white is tho mourning color in Japan, and the bride leaving her par ents house, considers herself dead n the sense that she will never return alive, preferring death to divorce, and sn consequence wearing white cos tune.
 After the exchange of cups of sake with the bridegroom, which is the most 1mDortant part of the wedding cere- monv. the bride changes her costume to n red one. This is called iromaoshi fchanging color). Red is supposed to have a purifying power. and perhaps clears the minds of the parties of all association of mourning.
 This Is the origin of the Japanese GUS tom Of using white costume al we'd dlngs, but many people in modern Ja- pan do not any longer have time to lnther their heads with these questions of color and simply go ahead and marry according to the accepted custom, With no thought VI what the coiors signify

OLD LINE REPUBLICANS
 ARE VERY MUCH ALARMED
BY WALTER HARPER

Washington, April 15.-(Special)- The old line republicans are clearly at sea. They admit that things are be- ginning to look bad for Taft and the party. It is generally conceded that Roosevelt now has chance to win the termination and may do it.
 The Taft leaders are getting mad. Though the President has advised his supporters to make no personal attack cn the former President and 10 con duct as decent a campaign as possible, along conservative lines, the Pennsyl- vania result is more than they can stand.
 They are advising the President to jump into the ring and fight back with vigor. They are breaking away from the advice and counsel of the leader and have already begun to talk back. The campaign matter that is being sent out by Chairman Mckinley of the Taft committee since last night has been most vicious in its attack on Col onel Roosevelt
 Such a course. as a matter of fact, will not win votes for Taft and may result in enhancing the chances of ths former President. The Taft campaign has lost it's head and is shooting wild They have reached the point where forecasts and claims have lost their effect Roosevelt has somehow man. aged to smash most of their forecasts and claims.
 With the possibility of Roosevelts nomination the democrats today have begun to figure on the probable line

Rues May Re Gull

Mobile Register: Rumor current among the fans has it that the Mobile club will shortly secure Arthur Bues, from the New York Giants, a slugger whom Me- Graw purchased from Seattle but there don't seem to be a possible chance of Mobile landing him; in fact, Manager Finn in answer to wire has hung the nothing doing sign on the rumor.
 The report gained circulation through the publication of dispatch out of New York to the effect that the Giants had asked waivers on Bues in order to farm" him, the Boston Nationals refus- ing to waive. resulting in the Giants turn in; over Arthur Devin to Boston in order not to lose Bues. It will be recalled that the former Seattle infielder trained with the Giants this spring and showed great form as an outfielder, McGraw working him in the garden. priming him to take Red" Murrays job, but the latter showed some of his old time form and now McGraw has no use for Bues.
 But Bues is purchased player and Seattle will have first claim if he is sent back to the minors. It may be that Me- Graw intends sending this man to Mo- bile for a little more seasoning under Manager Finn, but as yet the Gull leader has heard nothing from it.

up and chances for their party in No vember No one seems to believe that Roosevelts nomination would lessen the chances of the democratic success, hut 1t might have some effect on the selection of a democratic nominee. If
 Roosevelt has a policy or an issue it is the initiative, referendum and the recall or the rule of the mob
 Those opposed to this breaking away in a radical form from the original principles of our government will de- mand a candidate that represents and stands for their ideas. Some consider
 ation will have to be given to this is- sue If 1t Is made prominent by Roose- yelt as the nominee. So 1t is that con- servatism as an issue may be forced on the democratic convention at Bal timore and will naturally have some thing to do with the selection of the | leader
 | Some of the leaders in both parties
 are speculating on the possible selec- tion of a third man for the republican
 nomination. If the party is to he saved | ft seems that this course will have % 1 be taken. Justice Hughes has been mentioned and is about the only man that has been mentioned with any show 1 of confidence. But democrats and re-
 publicans are of the opinion that he | would decline to accept with conditions
 as they are and the prospects for the future exceedingly doubtful
 | Much sympathy is being expressed in | Washington for the southern repub- lican delegate who stands between q | devil of republican uncertainties and
 a deep blue sea of democratic success.

Joy in Memphis

Commercial- With Cecil Fergu- sons name attached to a contract and several candidates for berths soon to be loaded on trains for elsewhere. Big Bill Bernhard has nothing to do now but sit still in the boat and give the weather man absent treatment. With the signing of Ferge yesterday afternoon and the decision to lop off several aspiring ball tossers from the Turtles list, Bernhard rounded out a preparatory season that gives every promise of bearing fruit in the nature of the best team Memphis has had in several years. first division team seems certain, and the chances of becoming a real contender for league honors Is not so very many degrees re- moved from the realm of possibilities.
 The addition of Ferguson fills what looked to be a serious break in the Tur- ties defense The pitching staff alone has been causing worry ever since the infeld and outfield members of the club com menced to get into the form the dope called for. With lIissinger, Allen and Newton slated for regular berths in the hurling department much apprehension was felt because all of them are veterans and are subject to hard knocks at the hands of father time. Ferguson, how ever, Is youth, but old enough to be valuable man.
