II there II anything more ridi-
culous than a fat man In a two
acre shirt, Il Is a man who IL so
thin that his legs snarl up when

Nature IL Just as reckless when
she makes thin men as she IL when
she spreads herself and makes a
baldheaded le~viathan. Sometimes
Nature gets 30 economical that she
makes 100 pounds Of material do
for n whole man I; and In this case
she generally stretches him out
until he In so slender that he can't
wear a watch because 1t would
stick out ON him like a bump on

Thin men are composed OF up
holstered bones and vary In gauge
from % to n-caliber. A drink OF
water swells them visibly and
when they nit down In street cars
they have to hold newspapers in
front Of themselves to keep other
people out Of the same place. One
of the hardest things in the world
10 see Is a thin man who is In a
hurry unless he happens to wear
O red necktie.
Thin men are often healthy and
live TO a great age, but always dis
appoint their friends when they
do so. One Of the greatest pleas
ures In this life Is TO discuss a
thin man who uses old umbrella
cases for leggins and a wristlet
Tor a chest protector, and to bet
on whether Death will scythe him
or reap him with a pair OF manii-
cure scissors. Many al thin man

Thin men look sour and sad,
but this Is n6t their fault. A thin
mans face is so narrow that he
has TO smile up and down instead
OF crosswise. There also seem to
be very few bald-headed thin men
but this is not the case. Enough
hairs to thatch a thin mans skull
only makes a little ring around a
fat mans head.
Thin men have many sorrows,

HORSES IN WAR NEGLECTED

Them.

The present wars in Africa and
Asia are reminders to us of at least
one humiliating fact, that not yet
have the merciful provisions of the
Red Cross been extended to include
the horses, which now, when dis
abled on the field of battle, are left to
die lingering deaths.

misery these innocent and suffering
creatures, should be safeguarded

An effort in this direction is being
made in England, and if America
and England cooperate at The
Hague convention something may be
effected. The present dreadful cruel
ties to horses in war are blot on our
civilization-as is war itself.

ASTONISHING CURES
SEEM MIRACULOUS
Persons Who Were Helpless From
Disease Rise Up Almost as II by
Miracle After Using the
Strange New Liquid.
MANY SOUTHERN PEOPLE AMONG
THOSE WHO REPORT MOST
ASTONISHING RESULTS.

A news message from Fort Wayne,
Ind, says that city is now in a tur-
moil over many astonishing cures
| that are being effected by the strange
new liquid, Root Juice, which has
been creating a sensation in Atlanta
for the past few weeks.
Mrs. ]. Schondell. who lives at 610
Madison Street, Fort Wayne, had suf-
fered for years with rheumatism
which became so bad that she was
helpless. She tried doctors and pat
ent medicines without results and
had about given up hope when the
wonderful power Of the famous Root
Juice treatment became known.
The startling story Of her recovery
is best told in her own words, taken
from a signed statement which she
| recently gave out. Regarding her
case Mrs. Schondell says: ~ was un-
able to move and had to be carried
from one place to another. After
trying doctors and medicines without
success. l began using the Root Juice
and can say that when I had taken
two bottles l was able to walk with
ont assistance and am now once more
taking care of my household duties.
The medicine saved my life
Atlanta Still Excited.
Atlanta people continue to report
many strange and wonderful benefits
that are following the use Of the new
Root Juice medicine in that city.
| Persons who suffered from indiges-
ton. loss Of appetite, pains, belching,
bloating and distress after eating,
constipation, biliousness and head
aches say that a few doses correct
the trouble. The appetite increases
and the stomach seems to digest any
thing.
! Mr.. Andrew Barney, residing at 624
/ Decatur ST., who has been a sufferer
from stomach, liver and kidney trou-
bic for over two years. in statement
issued for publication said: "I suf-
fored dreadfully from indigestion,
belching. headaches and pains in the
small Of my back. At times had no
appetite and at other times 7 could
not sleep. I was nervous. irritable
and worrysome and felt all run down.
| used the news Root Juice medicine
only two weeks but already feel a
great deal better. My indigestion is
nearly gone, ] can eat almost any
thing and for the first time in two
years / sleep fine. Before taking this
Root Juice treatment / tried six diff
fcrent medicines and four DOCTORS"
The medicine seems to possess
strange power in relieving disorders
of the stomach, liver and kidneys and
many sufferers from these maladies
have reported complete cures.
In view of the wonderful benefits
being derived from its use by persons
In other places 1t would seem advis-
able for all home people who seek
health to at least give 1t thorough
test. 9
