A Message to Thin,

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 gently
stomach and intestines to absorb the
oils and fats and hand them over to the
blood, where they may reach the
starved, shrunken, run down tissues and
build them up. The thin persons body
is like dry sponge-eager and hungry
for the fatty materials of which it is
being deprived by the failure of the all
mentary canal to take them from the
food. The best way to overcome this
sinful waste of flesh building elements
Sargol, the recently discovered regen-
erative force that is recommended SO
highly by physicians here and abroad.
Take a little Sargol tablet with every
meal and notice how quickly your
cheeks fill out and rolls of firm, healthy
flesh are deposited over your body, COW

Modern society has nothing on the
modern stage, so far as morals go.
In truth, the balances lean a bit to-
ward the stage, in the opinion of Miss
Blanche Walsh, the noted emotional
actress, who is making her first ap-
pearance in Atlanta in vaudeville.
This view was expressed by Miss
Walsh in her dressing room at the
Forsyth Monday afternoon before the
plaudits following her appearance in
"The Countess Nadine" had died
away.
DO I think the stage is decadent?"
she asked, echoing the query of the
interviewer why, no. Why should
/? The morals of the people of the
stage are about as those of the people
who follow other pursuits. OF course,
there are immoral people on the
stage, just as there are immoral peo-
pie off it. 1t all depends on the peo-
pie themselves.
Upholds Morals of Stage.
In my opinion, the conduct of the
general run of actors and actresses
compares most favorably with the
conduct OF the society people of to-
day. 1t has been claimed that the
stage has been tainted by the tango.
That is Just as absurd as many other
charges that have been made against
the people who entertain you behind
the footlights The tango and the 9TH
err modern dances that have fallen
into disrepute belong to society. They
have been introduced on the stage
from society, and If any blame at
taches it should be placed where it
belongs.

What do l think of the stage as a
career for young girl? Why,
hardly like to say 1 should hesitate
long before advising a young girl to
take up the life of the mines and
mummers unless 1 knew she had tall
ent and the courage to overcome dis
appointments and fight her way
through the network of trials and
troubles that will beset her way at
the beginning.
"If she has talent, however, I can
not think of a more satisfactory ca
Ieer for a young girl. 1t is glorious to
know that you can control the emo
tions of a critical audience. 1t is a
feeling of triumph you get nowhere
else, and one well worth all the trials,
in my opinion.
Her Rise to Fame Not Hard.
II suppose, however, / am not the
one to talk of the fluctuations of the
stage" the famous star remarked,
with a smile. MY path has not been
exactly a bed of roses. but, fortu-
nately I have escaped most of the
hardships that commonly befall the
stage aspirant.
Not boasting, you know-no, not
that-but fate fixed IL for me to make
my way without the traditional dis
couragements of the stage beginner.
l have come to love my audiences,
and they have shown an appreciation
of my efforts which makes me proud
of my profession.
MY faVorite parts?N oh, guess
you might say the emotional parts of
Sardou. l love them as well, if not
better, than any 1 have played"
