Dec. 10 and 26, containing
articles on the Frank case.
Your explanation for directing my
attention to the articles mentioned,
that you believe that Frank has been
denied fair trial, that such denial
constitutes the gravest infringement
on the rights of an American citizen.
You further state that Franks coun-
sci, having been denied a retrial, are
about to appeal to Governor Slaton,
OF Georgia, urging clemency on his
behalf. You conclude by earnestly
requesting that l will, by voice and
pen, join in the appeal, in the hope
that some day" such evidence may
be brought forth as will necessitate
a new trial that will be ''just and
fair"
You sign your name, as we'll as

What Thin Folks Should Do
 To Gain Weight
Physician's Advice For Thin, Unde.
 veIoped Men and Women

Thousands of people suffer from ex- cessive thinness, weak nerves and fee ble stomachs who, having tried adver7 culture stunts and rub-on creams, re sign themselves to lifelong skinniness and think nothing will make them fat. Yet their case is not hopeless. A re- gently discovered regeneratiVe force makes fat grow after years of thin ness, and is also unequalled for repair ing the waste of sickness or faulty digestion and for strengthening the nerves. This remarkable discovery is called Sargol- Six strength giving, fat, producing elements of acknowledged merit have been combined in this peer less preparation, which is endorsed by eminent physicians and used by prom inent people everywhere. It is abso- lutely harmless, inexpensive and eff cient.
 A months systematic use of Sargol should produce flesh and strength by correcting faults of digestion and by supplying highly concentrated fats to the blood. Increased nourishment is obtained from the food eaten, and the additional fats that thin people need are provided. Lee & Osgood and other leading druggists supply Sargol and say there is a large demand for it.
 While this new preparation has given splendid results nerve-tonic and vitalizer, it should not be used by nervous people unless they wish to gain at least ten pounds of flesh.

POETRY
THE SHADOWS.

Oh. the shadows!-the dark shaIowz.- How silently they fall: They hang upon the 1andsca pc They fit upon the wall; And the joyous bells that rang to me- And the little birds that sang to me Are silent one and all. In the shadows, the dark shadows Creeping on the wall. Oh. the shadows!-the dark shadows!- My good friend passes by, And the merry boon companions Who'd rather sing than sigh Forget the days they laughed with me, Forget the nights the Quaffed with me And stare with vacant eye In the shadows, the dark shadows, Crawling on the sky! Oh. the shadows!-the dark shadowsi- They cover-up the dayI And she who loved me truly Is dead and gone away: As if harsh Fate had greed of her And not double need of her To light me as l stray Through the shadows, the dark shAd-

ION TRIAL" "
Coming to the Davis April 5th.


 With host of varied attractions to choose from during the current the atrical season, New Workers have pro- nounced "On Trial the greatest suc- cess the stage has known for years. And the announcement that it is to be presented here at the Davis theatre, Monday evening, April has awaken ed more genuine enthusiasm than has been noticeable in many months.
 A critical analysis of dramatic of ferings would class 'On TriaP' as un- mitigated and unaloyed melodrama. It is the old triangle play involving the betrayed maiden, the trusting hus- band and the betrayer; but so novel is the treatment of the subject matter said to be that it will not be recogniz- ed in its new dress.
 It is the decidedly unusual departure portrayals in "On Trial'' that breaks down the theory of the average au- thority that this time worn triangle is no longer eligible as dramatic mo- tive.
 Critics and discriminating public have agreed that viewed alone from it's novel aspect, "On Trial reveals a sub tlety on the part of it's author that is appreciated more and more as the de- nouncement is arrived at.
 As the title indicates the scene of "On Trial" Is laid in a court room. Not the regular stage court room, which is usually something of a farce, but court room scene well carried out to the smallest detail.
 Not to tire the reader the dramatic effect of this nucleus play cannot be described It has to be seen to be fully appreciated. The production here will be as good and in many respects better than the New York production and the stage effect and scene trans formation are done in shorter time than the New York show. A big stage crew will be on hand to make record time on all the changes.
