Thin Folks Who

4 Physician's Advice


"Td certainly give most anything TO
be able TO fat up few pounds and stay
that way" declares every excessively
thin man or woman. Such result is
not impossible. despite past failures.
Thin peaple are victims of mal-nutri-
ton, 4 condition which prevents the
fatty elements Of food from being TAX
en- up by the blod as they are when the
powers Of nutrition are normal. In
stead of getting into the blood all the
fat and fiesh-producing elements stay
in the intestines until they pass from
the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to pro-
duce healthy, normal amount Ct fat
the nutritive processes must be artifi-
ciaily supplied with the power which
be accomplished by eating a Sargol
tablet with every meal. Sargol is a
scientific combination of six of the best
strengthening, fat-producing elements
known to the medical profession. TAX
en- with meals, II mixes with the food
and turns the sugars and starches into
rich, ripe nourishment for the tissues
and blood and its rapid effect is re-
markable. Reported gains of from ten
to twenty-five pounds in a single
month are by no means infrequent. Yet

duced remarkable results in the tres t.
ment of nervous indigestion and gen.
eral stomach disorders, il should not,
owing to its remarkable fesh-producing
effect. be used by those who are not
willing to increase their weight ten
pounds or more.-Adyt.

OPPOSED THE VISIT
OF MRS. PANKHURS7
Head of National Suffrage Body
Believes Trip at This Time
Injuries the Cause.

The Rev. DR.. Anna Howard Shaw.
president of the National Woman Suf-
frage Association. Is holding a confer
ence with local suffrage leaders here
this afternoon, relative to the conven-
ton which will be held here the first
week in December and which, it Is an
nounced. will be the biggest suffrage
convention in the history of the move-
ment.
The chief purpose of the national pres
ident in coming here Is to address the
Maryland State Suffrage convention at
Chevy Chase tonight. She will be a
guest at the home of DR.. Ryan Devereux,
at Chevy Chase, until tomorrow noon,
Va, to speak before the Virginia State
Suffrage Association there.
The Rev. DR.. Shaw came to Washing
ton from Baltimore, where she made
some severe criticisms on Mrs. En-
incline Pankhurst, English militant
leader, whose visit to the United States
was Ii ltimed, II was asserted.
Il believe that Mrs. Pankhurst has
injured the cause Of suffrage in England
and that she has hindered 1t in this coun-
saying. Whenever women attempt to
use force they are at disadvantage.
for our weapons are not those Of force
and violence.

work. on which we ought to be concen-
trating all Our attention. and her collec-
tions will mean the idiverting of just
that much money from our own work in
the United States. 1t seems to me that
it was rather unfair for Mrs. Pankhurst
to come here at this time, when we
have our work well under way, and
when our success seems to be but.

LESSON TO EUROPE
IN ATLANTIC FLEET
Cruise Will Show Foreign Lands
Greatness of Our Navy and
Our FearIessness.

Of far greater Significance than a
mere visit of courtesy, the trip of the
Atlantic fleet to the Mediterranean is
expected by officers in the navy to DEM
onstrate to Europe two important
facts. They are. first, that the ships OF
the American navy in actual service are
in position to hold their own against
any European navy outside Of England,
and that, because of its geographical
advantages this country can enjoy the
exceptional privilege of sending her sea-
fighfing force 5000 miles from home and
pcf BEL unsafe.
<sfhe fleet will start from Hampton
Roads Saturday. Details of the starting
are being arranged by Secretary Daniels
and Rear Admiral Badger, who will
command the expedition. The feet will
return to America. in time for the
Christmas holidays.
According to Navy Department eX-
pertS, the Atlantic fleet, in volume of
fire and the number of large guns firipg
broadside, Is superior to. the French
navy or the combined navy of Austria
and Italy. and, in respect to 'twelve-inch
guns, to the German navy.
Sample In England.
That the trip will be significant in
illustrating what naval men style the
+ American freedom of movement
which renders the American fleet so
great a potential factor in foreign af-
fairs, is shown by the fact that not
long ago England, with the greatest
navy in the world, was compelled to
abandon the, idea of sending battle
squadron on q cruise to Australia for
Co. do frD hcr II
Europe.
Following it's return from the Medi-
terranean, il Is possible that next spring
the fleet will make trip through the
Panama canal, provided the full depth
of water is in the canal by that time.
! Just before the formal opening of the
canal. in 1915, the fleet will again go
through, escorting naval vessels of
other nations to the Panama-Pacihc EX-
position.
While there may be some changes in
the makeup of the Atlantic fleet be-
tween now and the time for the Medi-
terranean cruise. the personnel and
battleships taking part have all been
, made up.
Badger In Command.
Rear Admiral Charles ]. Badger will
be commander-in-chief of the great
fleet. Commander Cha.rles F. Hughes
will be chief of his personal staff. The
feet staff will be composed Of Surgeon
William c. Braisted: Pay Inspector

wood. and Major of Marines Albertus

divisions. which will be commanded by

MERCHANT SLOWLY
DYING Of POISON
Took Fatal Drug in Mistake for
Headache Remedy-Cannot
] Live a Week.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22-Isaac Levy, n
clothing merchant of Manhattan, who
lives at Bath Beach. is slowly dying in
the Sunshine Sanitarium and Pes:
Home from the effects of taking poison
by mistake on Sunday night.
His physician, DR.. Jacob S. Sarnofc
has used extreme measures to prevent
the action of the poison, but the mer-
chant was discovered too late, and he
probably has less than a week to live
Mr.. Levy, vino is about SiXty-fIYe
Years old, has taken his condition as
hero. He was still conscious today.
l'ut was gradually going into 4 coma
He suffers no pain and has prepared
for the end calmly and patiently. To-
day he saw his rabbi. his lawyer. and
his eleven children and settled his al
fairs while he had the use of his
senses. He realizes the hopelessness Of
MS case, but is aiding his physician in
the final fight for his life.
Took Poison For Aspirin.
The case is Identical with that of
Saunders B. Walker, the banker of
Macon, Ca, who watched death grad
ually overcoming him hour by hour
Tor about a week. Mr. Levy, like him.
took poison instead OF headache
remedy recommended by Sarnoff and did
not realize the mistake until several
hours later.
On Sunday night he went to bed suf-
ferinG from a headache. He woke up
shortly after 2 o'clock Monday morn
ing and decided TO, take few aspirin
tablets fer relief. Not wishing to
awaken his wife. he made no light and
felt around in the medicine chest for
the tablets. He took four of what he
thought were the headache pills, and
returned 10 bed.
- Physician Is Summoned.
1t was three hours later when Mr.
Levy .awoke again, and this time he
felt SO i'll that DR.. Sarnoff was called.
Mr.. Levy told the doctor he had gotten
I'D 10 take the aspirin tablets for his
headache, and the doctor Immediately
guessed that the merchant had taken
something else by mistake
On the spoon which Mr. Levy had
used DR.. Sarnoff found stains Of the
poison taken. Already the poison had
begun its deadly work. Dr. Sarnoff used
the stomach pump and other remedies,
hoping to get as much of the poison as
possible out of Mr.. Levy's body.
DR.. Sarnoff said Mr.. Levy would prob
ably die in less than a week. although
it was not certain. If a considerable
quantity of the poison has been re-
moved, Mr.. Levy may live two weeks,
but that is mere chance.
