TWENTIETH CENTURY FOE OF FAT-NO MORE
ROLLING ON FLOOR! THIS MACHINE DOES 1T

Like the average American hus-
band this man wanted his wife to
have everything she wanted when
she wanted it and he made a ma
chine that would roll around wife.
Last year we had a student in the
university that looked as though he
might be good timber for the football
team but he was too fat (He could
not bring himself to train down where
he could run instead of waddle.) The
alumnus told me about his machine
and we installed one here.
''The fat literally rolled off Red
man, our football recruit; he made
the squad and reduced himself 60
pounds in five weeks
1.-THE machine consists of a sub
stantial frame with wheels carrying
two sets of belts-each set being pro-
vided with number of wooden mas
sage rollers. These belts are ar
ranged so that the rollers may be
brought into contact with any part
of the body - particularly the hips
and abdomen where fat people usual
ly want to reduce most.
These rollers break down the fat

one puts his mind to it-but few of
us have the will power to keep up the
spartan mode of living unless one
sees immediate results.

found that rolling made her dizzy
and bewailed the fact to her husband.

DEMOcRAcY's INTERNAL TROUBLES.

n HERE is between the executive and legislative
branches Of the Democratic administration.
The Department OF Justice has asked the United
States Supreme Court to declare null void statute
upon which the Democratic Congress abored for more
than six months to enact into law
This amazing spectacle has its origin in the clause
of the tariff act proposing give five per cent dis
count on all duties imposed merchandise imported in
vessels admitted TO American registry It's history Is
well known The Court Of Customs Appeals upheld the
law in a divided opinion From this decision the gov
eminent has appealed
In It's brief asking the Supreme Court TO review the
case the Department Of Justice severely crticses Con
gress for laundering
The Congressional purpose of favoring American
bottoms is obsructed by treaty provisions to the CON
trary' declares the argument for a review and Con-
fully advised of purport and existence of
these treaties II precise ineligible meaning can
be given to the law in question consistent with the
manifest intention Of Congress- IL must be held to be
void and OF no effect
III the initial clause and the provso Of the section
are irreconcilable" and the government so contends
the statute void Better that the words used shoud
be declared inadequate the purpose intended than
that Interpretation should usurp the function Of egs-
lation"
The Department still further emphasizes its belief
that the act Of Congress absurd by quoting with
approval the Senate committee report which rejected
the offending section
the
report as quoted by the government brief 1T was in
contravention of nineteen or twenty treaties of
the United states In opinion Il could have led TO
no good result every other country could have re-
taliaed and all the countries in the end would have
been Just about where they started. We were not
only inviting endless retaliation but a retaliation
where our opponents would have had in nearly every
case the better OF IT, and in nany infinitely the
better"
Furthermore the Department Justice contends that
Congress enacted law either impossible of perform
ance or that must be postponed until treaty relations
can be modified to permit Of IT," and urges the
court TO declare tho statue imperative
The development of this division between the ex- |
oouve and legislative branches the Democratic adj
ministrauon merely repeats history. The party is |
running true to FORM and reminds the division
in the Democratic party during the administration Of
Grover Cleveland when he refused to sign the tariff
bill which the Democratic Congress had enacted after
months OF labor
