Why Fat Returns If
Taken Off BY Exercise

Since fat is the result Of particu-
larry easy assimilation of food. which
too readily turns into fatty SUBJ
stances. the exercise for reduction
must be very vigorous to tear down
the tissues and as rapidly as exercise
builds larger muscular foundation,
more fat is developed. For the early
part of the time which you are eXer-
cisiug flesh is turned tp muscle. but
the action Of the stomach being un-
changed and the flesh being more
easily developed than muscle, it Is
not long until the exercise has in
creased the weight OF late years.
the slender form is possible without
making oneself miserable hy dieting
or indulging in violent exercises TO
reduce fat Make up and take this
simple reducer and your weight viii
soon be just whore you want IT, Dis
solve ounces parnOtis (Which every
good druggist has IN his stOre) In
N pints hot water. when II coOls

fore meals. This parnotis reducer
acts gently. Is quite harmless and en-
tirely satisfactory results are quickly
attained. 1t leaves tho flesh firm

and thirty soldiers, of which 81 were

Two thousand federaIs who had
sailed out from the protection of the
walls of Torreon to attempt a flank
movement around the right wing of the
rebel forces besieging the city, were
driven back after struggle that last
ed nearly two days.

Eulalio Gutierrez and Gen. Jose Y.
Robles have recaptured the important
towns of Parras; General Cehedo and

CUSHING TO HEAD THE
MASS. HOUSE OF REPS,
Republican Elected Speaker
Despite Stampede ofDem-
ocrats to Vote for Pro-
gressive Candidate.

Boston, Jan. 7.--Grafton D. Gushing,
the Republican candidate. was elected
Speaker for fourth term at the open
ing of the Legislature today but 1t
was only after a lively contest in
which four llots were taken, a coali
ton of Del.Wcrats and Progressives
forming the opposition. The final vote
was: Gushing (Republican) 1928;
Webster (Prog) 1o9; Tague (Dem) s.;
Morrill, (Soc) 1.
The coalition almost won the first
ballot when just after the tally was
finished, there was a stampede by the
Democrats to change their vote from
Tague to Webster. The first result
announced was Gushing 116; Tague
103; Webster II; Morrill, 1. Scores of
Democrats then rose in their seats and
changed their votes from Tague to
Webster until the latters vote reached
116. Four Democrats refused to shift
and another ballot was required.
The second ballot was the same as
the first after the changes. but on the
third Gushing gained one. vote. Then
came the fourth and final ballot in
which several Progressives went over
to the Republicans. The opposition to
the Republicans in the Senate was
not sufficient to prevent the election
of Calvin Coolidge of North Ampton,
president on the first ballot
