PORTER BECOMES
STATE SAN|TAR|AN
he WAS ELECTED TO THE POSI-
TON OVER DR.. DOWL!NG'S
PROTEST.
AT A SALARY OF $500
Finally Or. Bowling Agreed TO PIanr
and Will Give Every Opportunity
TO MAKE Good"
New Orleans


The Wednesday session of the State
Board of Health was very lively
one. At one point IN the proceeding
Dr.. Bowling, the president, said to
the board: "lf you attempt to crowd
this (the appointment of DR.. Porter
of the HoOkworm CommissiOn) down
my throat | will resign from this
board"
The proposition was to make DR..
Sidney d. Porter medical inspector Of
the board at salary of $4,000 a year
DR.. Bowling opposed the plan vigor-
ously, and it finally went through in a
sort of compromise form, after DR..
Bowling had used some very direct
language in presenting his objections.
Drs. Ledbetter and White were the
two principal proponents of the propO-
sitiOn, and insisted on the appoint
ment at the salary stated. DR.. Dowl-
ing said he believed a better man
could be had for $1,000, which was
the sum that had been proposed for
the office.
There has been friction for some
time between the hookworm special
ist and the president of the State
Board. DR.. Bowling has not hesitated
to charge that DR.. Porter was not
loyal to the board, from which he has
been drawing $1,000 annually-"$1,50
as lagniappe," as DR.. Bowling express
ed it at the board meeting-and has
not been sufficiently energetic in the
prosecution Of the duties Of his post.
DR.. Bowling, in presenting his objec-
lions to the proposition said that the
$1,000 DR.. Porter had been drawing
from the State Board was lagniappe
in addition to the $500 he got from
the Rockefeller Foundation. If the
man was as competent as his friends
said, DR.. Bowling added, why was the
Rockefeller Foundation prepared to
let him go, when 1t had not only re.
ta1ned but had advanced other men in
the field in this section. He said he
was satisfied that better man could
be secured for $1,000 per annum.
Dr. Ledbetter took up the case earn
estly in behalf Of DR.. Porter. He said
a suitable man could not be obtained
for S1,S0O. IF we really want an ef.
ficient sanitary expert we must pay
more" he said. After much discus
sion, some of it heated, in which DR..
Bowling expressed his views plainly
about officials who cooked their feet
on desks and smoked cigars instead
of "buckling down" to the serious
work Of their offices, the report Of the
finance committee, which provided
that DR.. Porter be made state SAM
tartan at a salary Of $500 per an.
mum, was adopted, Dr. Bowling ex.
pressing willingness to give DR..
Porter every opportunity to make
good.

WHY FAT RETURNS IF
TAKEN OFF BY EXERCISE

Since fat is the result of particularly
easy assimilation of food, which too
readily turns into fatty substances, the
exercise for reduction must be very Wig
orous to tear down the tissues. and as
rapidly as exercise builds larger mus
cular foundation, more fat is developed.
For the early part of the time which
you are exercising flesh is turned into
muscle, but the action of the stomach
being unchanged and the flesh being
more easily developed than muscle. it is
not long until the exercise has increased
the weight. or late years, the slender
form is possible without making one
self miserable by dieting or indulg.ng in
violent exercises to reduce fat. Make up
and take this simple reducer and your
weight will soon be just where you
want 1t. Dissolve ounces parnotis
(Which every good druggist has in his
store) in ~ pints hot water; when it
cools, strain, and take a tablespoonful
before meals. This parnotis reducer acts
gently. is quite harmless. and entirely
satisfactory results are quickly attained.
II leaves the flesh firm and well
moulded.-Advt.

REQUEST
PUZZLES DEMOCRATS
Leaders Are Undecided About
Granting Him a Hearing on
the Colombian Treaty.

Colonel Roosevelt. has the Democratic
what to do about his request to be heard
before the Foreign Relations Commit
tee on the Colombia treaty, to which
he is unalterably opposed.
Until the Foreign Relations Committee
meets again next week, 1t will probably
be undecided what is to happen. Sena-
tor Stone has indicated his opposition
to allowing the colonel to appear. In
this. it is believed Senator Stone Is fol-
lowing the wishes of Secretary Bryan
and the White House. Under the cir
cumstances, talk about the Senate today
was that The Democratic members of
the committee would oppose granting
the request.
1t is apparent. however, that the col
onel stands to gain whether the COM
mittee allows him to appear or whether
II turns him down. way out of the
difficulty is to temporize and hold the
Colombia treaty over until next session.
Inasmuch as the feeling about the Sem
ate is that the treaty will go over any
how, and cannot be forced to a vote
this session. without greatly prolong-
ing an already overlong session. this
path may be taken.
The difficulty which will arise to pre-
vent the Democrats from tcmporiZing
with the matter is a motion which Sena-
tor William Alden Smith of Michigan Is
going to make. He will be on hand IL
nothing unforeseen occurs at the next
meet'rg OF the committee. He will
move That the request Of Colonel Roose-
