A MESSAGE TO THIN,
I: !. WEAK, ScRAWNY FOLKS
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 lbs. Of
Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh.

Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women, everywhere are heard to say,
az cant understand why / do not get
fat. l eat plenty of good, neurishing
food" The reason is Just this: You
cannot get fat, no matter how much
you eat, unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat making elements
of your food instead of passing them
out through the body as waste.
What is needed Is a means of gent
ly urging the assimilatiye function Of
the stomach and intestines to absorb
the oils and fats and hand them over
to the blood, where they may reach
the starved, shrunken, rundown It's
persons body is like dry sponge
eager and hungry for the fatty mate
rails of which it is being deprived By
the failure of the alimentary canal to
take them from the food. The best
way to overcome this sinful waste Of
flesh building elements and to stop
the leakage of fats Is to use Sar-
gol, the recently discovered regenera-
tive force that Is recommended
so highly by physicians here
and abroad. Take little Sar-
gol tablet with every meal and
notice how quickly your cheeks
fill out and rolls Of firm, healthy flesh
are deposited over your body, cover.

ISCONFlDENT OF
GERMAN VICTORY
.Kaiser's Ambassador to u. s.
Arrives From Rotterdam ON

DENOUNCES ENTRANCE OF
JAPANESE IN FIGHT
Declares Liege Action Was Real
ly Great Victory For Arms
of Germany

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-"From the
emperor to the common laborer, the
nation Ii ready to defend itself against
this unwarranted attack. and have
perfect confidence of victory" was the
statement here today OF Count Johann
Won Bernstorff. German ambassador to
the United States. The ambassador
arrived from Rotterdam today on the
liner Noordam, and talked with the
greatest freedom. He plainly indicat-
ed that feeling as a result Of Japan's
entrance into the war Is bitter.
"The calling In Of the yellow men
shows that the allies are not very con-
fident OF the outcome" .he ambassa-
dor declared. England, as the Japa-
nese ambassadors have said, request
ed Japan To enter the fight"
Won Bernstorff, denounced the false
stories that have been circulated In
the United States as to the wounding
OF the German crown prince and re-
ports from the German army head
quarters. He said General Won EN-
mich, commanding the German troops
before Eiege, had not committed sui
eide, but was still alive, though suffer
Ing from wound In the leg.
Liege, the ambassador declared, but is
In command OF the army, and fortress
at Metz.
The last German victory heard of
before leaving" said Won Bernstorff.
was won at Metz by the forces under
the crown prince"
AS to the part japan might play In
the war, the ambassador declared the
yellow men would undoubtedly take
Kiao Chan as they would far outnum-
Der the German defenders.
by the end of the war" he said,
Japan will have the supremacy Of
the Pacific. She took advantage OF the
present situation to strike the blow
which will result In the supremacy
she had longed for for years"
Count Won Bernstorff told an en-
tirely different story of forces attack
ing Liege than those reported In news
dispatches from Belgium.
When the real story OF the attack
upon Liege Is told" he said, "Ameri-
cans will have far different opinion
of German military methods. The
troops under General Won Emmich at
lacking the forts numbered ouly be-
tween 5000 and 5000 men. What was
expected to require weeks was accom-.
plished In days. The taking OF Liege
Is one Of the greatest military feats
|of modern times"
The ambassador said his wife was
now with the Red Cross at Munich.
His son Is with the emperor's guard.
But for the service for my country
In Washington. would be on the bat
tie line myself" Won Bernstorff said.

EARLY CROP
REPORTS HELD
TOO OPTIMISTIC
Month Of July Proved Very I'm
favorable for Growth in u. s.
Il Says Statement
WEATHER AND WAR
DEPLETE FIELDS ABROAD
Saving of Harvest Depends On
Female and Youthful Labor
Almost Entirely

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.--Reduced
foreign crop yields. due to the wide
spread abandonment of the fields BY
the male population OF military age
and q less favorable condition of
crops In this country. were reported
today in the monthly bulletin Of the
department o. agriculture for the sea
son up to Aug. I.
The general tone of foreign crop
reports during the past month has In
dicated previous estimates OF prospec.
tive yields TO be too optimistic, the
report declared. This is due to
weather conditions, as well as the
war. The department does not ven
ture an estimate of what the result
of the war on European crop yields
will be.
The saving OF standing wheat and
other unharvested crops promises to
devolve largely upon female and
youthful labor" today's report said.
Although the stress of urgent neces-
sity will be powerful influence
against permitting waste, the effect of
these unusual harvest conditions upon
ultimate yield Is for the present prob
lematical."
In the United Kingdom and the
more northerly ATTITUDES Of the CONT
nent OF Europe there was promise of
better than an average crop before
the war brought to q halt farm opera
tions.
In the United States the August /
report declares that the month of
July was very unfavorable for crop
growth. The composite conditions OF
all crops Aug. was two per cent be.
low. the 10-year average, whereas on
July ! prospects were Ia above the
10-year average.
Improvement occurring in July in
nearly all the Atlantic coast states,
the northern states of Michigan and
Wisconsin and the mountain states,
except Montana and Wyomig.
In nearly all other parts Of the
United States" today's report said,
crops deteriorated during July"
