loo Much for Mother.

A Pasadena boy asked his father
what was meant by the expression:
1.-THE woman had q Greek profile. y
The father put down the paper he was
reading and replied: Why, it mere
ly means a classic outline" The
mother took a hand, declaring the
answer was too short and really a
shifty euphemism. Give our son a
long and clear answer" she insisted.
Paterfamilias sat up and made this
lucid, ornate reply: "a Greek profile
is a bold silhouette. blending the Doric
and Ionian expression and depicting
that clear-eut plastic work Of Praxi-
teles. which is entirely free from the
rocco renaissance school and which

is often the case in steam heated int

Birds, like human beings, demand

Here is a good trick to play upon
the fellow who knows it all" He will
be surprised when shown that he is
wrong. Initiate a large empty paper
bag and tie it up alright. Place the
bag on the palm of one hand, and into
the palm of the other hand take such
a quantity of coin or other metal as
will seem to equal the bag in weight.
If the observer does not know Of the
illusion or suspect it, the paper bag
will be found to weigh ten to twenty
times as much as the metal with
which it was matched.

Cows Remarkable History.

Farmers viii be amused at the fol-
lowing record of a certain New Zea,
land cows history. About Is years
ago a South island farmer purchased
a COW from another, paying S25 for
her. The first was told at that time
that the animal had had several
calves. A few weeks ago the purchas:
er disposed of the COW to a Mr.. Hall
for the sum Of $50, and the latter no.
ticed that the animal had an ear-mark
registered by his own father. In
quiries disclosed the fact that the COW
had been purchased from Mr.. Halls

Father of the Dreadnaueht.

To the late Cuniberti, major general
of the Italian naval engineering stan,
is due the credit of having suggested
the modern dreadnaught- It was he,
also, who suggested the modern type
of scout, and he was one Of the first
to study the question Of the appEca-
ton of liquid fuel to marine boilers.
It was his influence which led to the
adoption OF this fuel In the Italian tor
pedo boat service.

Columbus.

From all accounts, Christopher Co.
lumbus was an Italian, having been
born in Genoa, Italy. His birth year
was 1435 or 1896, the exact date being
uncertain. The reason why he en-
tered the service of Spain, rather than
that Of his native country, was owing
to the fact that at that time Italy was
not much interested in matters of dis
covery.

PoIIeeman,s Badge of Authority.

In equipment the policeman varies
from a walking arsenal, such as the
Jericho policemen, to the clubless pa

The club, however, is recognized as

Darjeeling the policeman carries a

How Thin People
Can Put On Flesh
A New Discovery.

Thin men and women-that big,
hearty, filling dinner you ate last
night. What became OF all the fat
producing nourishment 1t contained
You haven't gained in weight one
ounce. That food passed from your
body like unburned coal through an
open CRATE. The material was there,
but your food doesn't work and stick,
and the plain truth is you hardly get
enough nourishment from your meals
to pay for the cost of cooking. This
is true of thin folks the world over.
Your nutritive organs. your functions
of assimilation, are sadly out OF gear
and need reconstruction.
Cut out the foolish foods and funny
sawdust diets. Omit the flesh cream
rub-ons. Cut out everything but the
meals you are eating now and eat
with every one Of those single Sar-
gol tablet. In two weeks note the diff
ference. Five to eight good solid
pounds OF healthy, stay there" fat
should be the net result. Sarsol
charges your weak, stagnant blood
with millions Of fresh, new red blood
corpuscles-gives the blood the car
rying power to deliver every ounce
Of fat-making material in your food
to every part of your body. Sargol
too, mikes with your food and pre-
pares it for the blood in easily as
simulated form. Thin people gain all
the way from 10 to 25 pounds
month while taking Sargol, and the
new flesh stays put. Sargol tablets
are a scientific combination of six of
the ebest flesh-producing elements
known to chemistry. They come 40
tablets to a package, are pleasant,
harmless and inexpensive. and VIII
kinson & Co., and all other druggists
in Keokuk and vicinity sell them sub
ject to an absolute guarantee OF

Gate City to conduct series OF home
economics and cookery lessons for
the ladies OF Keokuk. Miss Peet has
studied the cookery question from A
TO q, and never makes any failures
along this line. When she attempts
to make good cake she accomplishes
1t, and she says there is no reason
why this should not be the exper-
fence of every cake baker.
She has originated many fine
recipes which do not call for expensive
ingredients. and which the good cooks
of Keokuk will delight in trying. She
Will give away leafiet containing a
number Of these recipes to every
woman who attends The Gate City
Home Economics School in Masonic
temple next week. She will, in her
cookery lessons, explain every step to
be taken in the following OF these
recipes and show how success may be
achieved. not now and then, but al.
ways She will allow the members
OF the classes to sample the foods she
prepares. and they can decide for
themselves whether or not they like
the dishes and will want to reproduce
them for their families at home. Judg-
ing by Miss Peet's success along this
line in other cities, the women who
attend her classes will want to go
home the very first evening after they
have seen Miss Peet cook, and try her
methods. They are easy and simple
and sensible. Miss Peet loves to cook
and one OF the aims OF her work as
a cookery teacher is to inspire other
women with this same love for what
she considers the most important of
arts and the most valuable of sciences.
