Here is good test worth trying. First
weigh yourself and measure yourself.
Then take Sargol-one tablet with every
meal-for two weeks: Then weigh and
measure again. 1t isn't question of
how you look or feel or what your
friends say and think. The scales and
the tape measure will tell their own
story, and most any thin man or woman
can easily add from five to eight pounds
in the first fourteen days by folio wing
this simple direction. And best of all,
the new flesh stays put.
Sargol does not of itself make fat,
but mixing with your food, 1t turns the
fats, sugars and starches of what you
have eaten into rich, ripe, fat produc-
ing nourishment for the tissues and
b1ood-prepares 1t In an easily assimi-
lated form which the blood can read
lily accept. All this nourishment now
passes from your body as waste But
Sargol stops the waste and does 1t

are eating now develop pounds and

JAZZ PANESE PAPERS
ARE DISSATISFIED
Accuse Cabinet of Being Lax
in Negotiations With
United States

TOKYO, July 26.-Some OF the lead
ing newspapers today accuse the Japa-
nese cabinet Of lack Of diplomatic
adroitness In the negotiations connect
ed with tho California alien land own
ership legislation. They urge that
advantage should be taken OF Medcos
friendliness In order to further Japan's
cause. At tho same time they question
the sincerity Of tho United States.
M. Hashimoto. vice minister OF COM
merce, made the following statement
In connection with Japanese partici-
patton in the Panama-Pacifc exposi-
tion:
"The authorities understand that 1t IL
reasonable for Japanese merchants to
refuse to exhibit at the Panama
Pacific exposition, owing to their nat
ural resentment against the alien land
ownership bill, but such participation
would ease the situation, and the Japa-
nese government hopes that the ma
tion will send as many exhibits as pos

CLUB ONCE RA|DED
CLOSED TO POLICE
Wolf Brothers Open Resort
Again, but Order Officers
to Stay Away

mo policemen need apply" is the ul-
timatum issued to Chief of Police
White by Wolf Brothers, proprietors
of the incorporated club at sS Ellis
street Their ultimatum raises the
question of the legality of the methods
employed by Captain Mooney and Chief
White of closing the incorporated gam
bling clubs.
Wolf Brothers place is ono OF those
raided by the police two weeks ago
last night. The case was dismissed in
the police court on the ground that
there was not sufficient evidence to
convict
Meantime Captain Mooney had or
dered Wolf Brothers. like the propr1e-
tors of the other clubs alleged to be
merely gambling clubs. to put padlocks
on their door and keep 1t closed
This Wolf Brothers now refuse to
do. Yesterday they notified Chief
White that they intended to keep the
club open-but that 1t would be closed
to the police officers, and any who ap-
piled for admittance would be refused.
Chief White took the matter up with
Judge Deasy and applied for search
warrants. The judge issued two such
warrants to two different officers. The
attempt to serve these will create. a
test case, upon which will hinge the
right of the police to raid the incor-
porated clubs and order them kept
closed.

GRADE CROSSINGS
TOO DANGEROUS
Railroad Commission Will
Work to Eliminate Every
One Where Possible

Az th. result Of recent fatal acci-
dents at grade crossings, the railroad
commission yesterday made known its
intention to insist upon further safe
guards in the operation OF railroads IN
this state. The elimination or grade
crossings, where possible. Is part OF
the commissions general plan for
safety in operation.
The announcement given out by the
commission follows:
What a few years ago were deemed
unsurmountab BILE obstacles to an un-
der grade or over. grade crossing are
now treated as only engineering. OH
6culties which skill and capital can
generally overcome. IT is, therefore,
the settled policy of this commission
when one railroad desires to cross an
other, or where 1T is desired that the
highway cross railroad or vice
versa to require such crossing 10 De
made by a subway or overhead cross
ing whenever and wherever 1t Is prac-
ticable and feasible so to do.
This decision was called forth by an
application from the board OF super
visors of Santa Clara county for
grade crossing embracing an extension
of Palo Alto avenue over the tracks
of the Southern Pacific company.
The commission after an investiga-
tion directed that the extension or
Palo Alto avenue shall pass under the
tracks of the Southern Pacific. The
cost will be approximately $4,000. The
cost of one of the approaches will be
borne by the city of Palo Alto, and the
cost OF the other approach will be
borne by Santa Clara county.
The commission has no power to
compel the city of Pa1o Alto. or the
county of Santa Clara to make the
payments mentioned, and the order
therefore, states that unles the parties
Join in making and financing the under
grade crossing. the APPLICATION for an
under grade crossing will be dis
missed.
