To Put On Flesh
And Increase Weight
A Physicians Advice.

Most thin people eat from four to
six pounds of good solid fat-makins
food every day and still do not In
crease in weight one ounce, while on,
the other hand many Of the plump.
chunky folks eat very lightly anr
keep gaining all the time. It's al1
bosh to say that this is the nature
of the individual. 1t isn't Natures
way at all.
Thin folks stay thin because their
powers of assimilation are defective.
They absorb just enough of the food
they eat to maintain life and a sem.
blance of health and strength. Slut
fling won't help them A dozenl meals
a day won't make thsm gam a single
stay there" pound All the fat-pro-
ducing elements of their food just
stay in the intestines until they pass
from the body as waste. What suck
people need is something that VIII
prepare these fatty food elements so
that their blood can absorb them ana
deposit them all about the body
something, too, that will multiply
their r1d blood corpuscles and in
crease their bloodfs carrying power.
For such e condition always
recommend eating sargol tablet
with every meal. Sargol is not, as
some believe, a patented drug, but is
scientific combination of six Of the
most effective and powerful flesh
building elements known to chemis
try. 1t is absolutely harmless, yet
wonderfully effective and a single
tablet eaten with each meal often has
the effect of increasing thu weight OF
thin man or woman from three to
five pounds week. Sargol is sold
by Wilkinson & Co., and other GOOD
druggists everywhere on positive
guarantees of weight increase OF

There may have been plays that
created more talk among Broadway
patrons, than THE Ironmaster,. but
1t is safe to say, none possess more
interest than this stirring drama. The
authors in constructing it, have been
very careful to consider the theatre
patrons In general, and have written
a play that calls for either an out.

fngly amount Of laughter, In each,
and every line. The story shows the
battle between capital and labor, and
1t Is so finely drawn, that no offense
can be taken on either side. 1t will
bear seeing by either workman, phil
osopher. or economist, with equal ap-
probation. When we say that 1t tells
the struggles between these two
wealth producers we do not mean it
has preachy atmosphere, but is full
OF wholesome entertainment, and any
lover OF the drama should be glad Of
the opportunity to witness this enc.
This drama will open an engagement

moved from the perfect romance and
ecstatfc bliss of the erstwhile drama.
But the most significant feature OF
this play, in SO far as 1t marks new
departure in playwrighting. lies in the
authors treatment OF the leading
feminine role. Hers is not one OF love
making. She is neither lover nor be-
loved. She is Just womanthe sort

faults and frailities, and her great

The self sacrifice Of professional
criminal, who takes the blame upon
himself and goes to his execution be-
cause OF his devotion to woman
who befriended him in an hour of
peril, forms one OF the thrilling
scenes with which within the Law
abounds There is also the social
problem OF the debt involved, whey
one is unjustly convicted Of crime
and sent to prison, serving out the full
sentence, only to be bounded and
prosecuted afterward, and thus pre-
vented from earning reputable Hv-
ing. In this case the convict is a
young girl innocent Of the crime
charged against her but who is rail
roaded" to prison to furnish an object
lesson against larceny-sacrificed to
/ the plans of a hypocritical employer.
After she has discharged the obli-
cation fixed by the law she is forced
i to face the alternative between the

warfare on the law, and she chooses
the latter. From a timid girl she de-

Fine Feathers.

Ten years ago play like Zine
Feathers which H. H. Frazee will
present for the first time here at the
Grand tonight, could not have been
successfully produced, because at
that time It was generally believed
that no drama could possibly succeed
without love theme as its most i'm
portant basis. Yet this play by
Eugene Walter is acclaimed the most
important dramatic work of the cen
fury.
In Fine Feathers the playwright
has struck out along new channels.
In his story the sex problem does not
obtrude itself, not even by suggestion.

band and wife, and their love is Of
