HOW To GET FAT.
Use Samosc. Says Pendleton Drug Co
and Put on Good Flesh.


TIL almost universal interest in
physical culture is the best evidence
that can be offered as to the need of
simple and scientific method of
making thin people fat, increasing
strength and restoring health.
Athletics, when carried to an eX-
treme, often result in straining the
vital organs. How much better 1t
would be for the average person to re-
gain health, strength and flesh by
using Samose. This flesh forming
food is assimilated as soon as it enters
the stomach; it helps the organs to
assimilate the food and extract the
flesh forming elements; it builds up
the muscles and rounds out the limbs
into shapely plumpness.
Samose has been so successful in
making thin people fat and restoring
the weak and run down to strength
and health that Pendleton Drug Co.
the popular druggists, sell it under
their personal guarante to refund the
money If it does not benefit.

citie charge that the United States
Steel corporation ifs behind the Roose-

that that party should succeed in
order that the system under which
private monopoly has thrived shall
be continued without interruption.
The governor said he would not
say that the gentlemen Of the Steel
corporation were actuated by vicious
motives He excused them on the
ground that the system was one IN
whose atmosphere they had grown
up: that they were naturally opposed
to any plan which was designed to
destroy the things they had built up.
and that IL was quite reasonable that
they should want continued a govern
ment which would perpetuate private
monopoly.
The governor said the former
method OF the corporations control
contributions. Now. he said, they
proposed to control 1t by iegaliZed
monopoly.

Those gentlemen may intend to do
the United States no dis-service, but

method is legalized monopoly"

THE court Is of opinion that the
citizens applying for the license are
suitable people to receive q license:
that the location is contiguous to the
city, and that there are more than FIVE
hundred people residing within ra-
dius of half 9 mileeof the fair grounds:
that there Is sufficient police protec-
ton, and that the gentlemen handling
the privilege will see that there is no
disorder which may arise from the
sale OF liquor
With these words Judge Scott yes
terday afternoon at S.; 80 o'clock issued
an order directing the cieark to issue
a license to the Virginia State Fair
association to sell liquor on the fair
81 ounds.
This order was issued after Mr.. Hill

Diggs had spoken fifteen minutes
against the granting of the license.

agreed that each side should have fif-
teen minutes in which to argue the
question. MI Carter in opening con-
sumed 1--WE minutes. He commended
