IL is not Mr. Barnes who has lost.
Let US look at the epic of these two
in an epic spirit. Whether Achilles
or Hector wins. let us be just to two
OF the loveliest sons OF battle and
playbOys of politics now on view.
And in the name OF epic poetry il
is not alone the too partial Roosevelt
ian OF Brooklyn that we must re-
prOach. The Syracuse correspondent
of the Press attacks Brother Barnes
in his complement eXterne:
Barnes is eight years younger
tlian the colonel. In his dress and his
manner he portrayed the type Of ag-
grcssiye and successful politician ac-
oustomed TO having his own way with
his party henchmen as with his tailor.
Then. again. the contrast in make
up of the two men could hardly have
been more pronounced. The colonel
wore conservative cutaway suit of
light gray twceds and simple black
tic with characteristic slouch hat
Barnes was attired in the most
, sprightly of light gray, a spring suit
up TO the last moment OF fashion

cut and color. and the whole creation

An Easy Way to Get
Fat and Be Strong

The trouble with most thin folks
who wish TO gain weight Is that they
insist on drugging their stomach or
stuffing II with greasy foods; rubbing
on useless "hosh creams" or follow
ing some foolish physical culture
stunt. while the real cause of thin
ness goes untouched You cannot set
fat until your digestive tract assimi-
lates the food you eat.
Thanks TO a remarkable new scieu-
ufc discovery, II is now possible 10
combine into simple form the very
elements needed by the digestive or
cans to help them convert food into
rich. fat-laden blood. This master
stroke of modern chemistry is callod
Sargol and has been termed the great
est OF flesh builders Sargol aims
through its re-generative, re-construc-
tive powers to coax the stomach and
intestines 10 literally soak up the
fattcning elements of your food and
pass them into the blood, where they
are carried to every starved, broken
down cell and tissue of your body
You can readily picture the result
when this amazing transformation has
taken place and you notice how your
checks fill out, hollows about your
neck. shoulders and bust disappear
and you take on from 10 to 20 pounds
of solid. healthy flesh. Sargol is abb
sclutely harmless. inexpensive, efi-
cleHt. Leading druggists Of Whining
ton and vicinity have it and will re-
I fund your money if you arc not salts
fed, as per the guarantee. found in
every package.
Caution While Sargol has given
excellent results in overcoming nerv-
Gus dyspepsia and general stomach
troubles. II should not be taken by
those who do not wish to gain ten
pounds or more.

HOW ABOUT THANKSGIVING
HOLIDAY At POSTOFFICE?

Postmaster English this morning
announced that he was considering the
advisability Of closing the local post
Office on Thanksgiving Day. the same
as is done in other large cities OF the
country. Postmaster English said
that before he would decide on this
course he would like merchants and
others here to express their opinion on
the subject. In case it should prove
to the disadvantage of the citizens,
however. the local Office will not be
closed on the holiday.
Federal employees in the local pos
tai service at present have no full
holidays. while in New York and other
cities, Fourth OF July and Thanksglv-
ing are observed as fun holidays. No
delivery of mails are made in those
cities and but one collection Is made,
that being i'm the evening. The stamp
windows in the postofIices are closed
and all clerks and carriers enjoy the
day
II is impossible for the carriers to
enjoy Christmas. the one holiday In
dhe year that nearly every one enjoys
as that Is the day when the carriers
are rushed. delivering packages, OF

PASSENGERS TO Use LEFT
HAND SIDE OF STREET CARS

Thomas W. Wilson. vice-president
and general manager Of the Whining
ton and Philadelphia Traction Com
pany, today issued orders to conduc-
tors on the Washington Heights
branch for safeguarding passengers
on the Boulevard and Eastlake lines.
Mr.. Wilson directed the conductors
to see that patrons on cars going
northward from Washington street
bridge to Twenty-second street on the
Boulevard use only the left-hand side
doors OF the cars in getting on or
alighting. and that only the left-hand
side doors also be used by patrons
on cars passing southwark on the
Eastlake branch to Washington street
bridge.
The object OF this Is to have the
passengers TO get on or off the cars on
the street side and thus do away with
the possibility of them being struck
by automobiles Use of the right-hand
platforms on north-bound Boulevard
cars required passengers TO get near
the middle OF the thoroughfare. and
the same was true of south-bound
cars on the Eastlake line.
