How To Gain Weight
A Pound a Day

Thin men and women who would
like to increase their weight with 10
or Is pounds of healthy stay there"
fat should try eating little Sargol
with their meals for a while and note
results. Here is a GOOD test worth
trying. First weigh yourself and
measure yourself. Then take Sargol
one tablet with every meal-for two
weeks. Then weigh and measure
again 1t isn't question of how you
look or feel or what your friends say
and think The scales and the tape
measure will tell their own story, and
most any thin man or woman can
easily add from five to eight pounds
in the first fourteen days by following
this simple direction. And best OF all,
the new flesh stays put.
Sargol does not Of itself make fat,
but mixing with your food, it turns
the fats, sugars and starches of what
you have eaten, into rich, ripe fat
producing nourishment for the tissues
and blood-preparas it in an easily
assimilated form which the blood can
readily accept. All this nourishment
now passes from your body as waste
But Sargol stops the waste and does
it quickly and makes the fat produc-
Ing contents OF the very same meals
you are eating now develop pounds
and pounds of healthy flesh between
your skin and bones. Sargol is safe,
pleasant. efficient and inexpensive.
Wilkinson & Co., and other leading
druggists in Keokuk and vicinity sell
1t in large boxes-forty tablets to a
package-on a guarantee OF weight in
cease or money back.

will be held where they can be util
lied if needed.
1t was explained that the United
States simply has told Carranza how
serious the situation really is as
viewed from here and has demanded
that he take all OF the necessary steps
to safeguard foreigners This action
followed unofficial suggestions from
certain foreign, powers. None Of the
various nations, the president said,
has made any official representations
to the United States. They have
quietly conveyed their fears for the
safety of their people to the state de
partment and it is in answer to their
suggestions that the note-which the
president disclaimed to be an ultima
tum-was sent to Carranza.
Stories that either the European or
the pan-American nations had sug-
gested combined expedition to re-
store order in Mexico were ridiculed
by the president. No such suggestion
has ever reached him, he explained.
No specific report of outrages
against foreigners has been reported
to the president, he told his callers.
1t is not what has happened that is
feared, but what might happen II all
OF the troops OF Carranza were with
Grawn from the capital, leaving the
foreigners there exposed to mob vio-
lence.
The report that a new revolution
was being planned in Mexico by Felix
Dfaz. had reached the president. but
he explained that he did not take 1t
seriously. And. 50 far as the various
famine rumors are concerneG he said
the food scarcity seemed to be con-
fined to a strip Of seventy-fiye miles
south Of the United States border and
to the federal district containing Mex
leo City.
The attitude Of the administration,
the president carefully explained. is
to take every step possible to get the
Mexican chieftains to recognize their
obligations to protect all foreigners
aad he still hopes they will do so and
that no outrages will take place. And
so far as intervention is concerned
the president made it plain that he is
still as much opposed to it as he ever
was.
Fletcher Makes Report
WASHINGTON, March 9.-Admiral
Fletcher reported to the navy depart
ment this afternoon from Guantanamo
that he had designated Admiral Caper-
ton to take command at Vera Cruz.
It was added that Caperton would
take with him the battleship Georgia
and the cruiser Washington.
The selection, both of Caperton
and the Washington, were variations
from the original program.
Caperton commanded the cruiser
squadron and 1t was therefore sup
posed Fletcher woule make different
choice. Fletcher, however, decided
differently.
Capertoa. in turn, departed from the
departments plan, by electing TO take
one Of his own cruisers as substi-
tute for one Of the battleships.

Carrying the war Into Turkey.


Chicago Herald: BY carrying the
war into Turkey the allies have GER
tainIy adopted a course calculated to
turn all the wavering interests OF
neutrals in their direction-to say
nothing Of frustrating any designs
that might have been entertained OF
detaching Russia from the alliance.
Not only Italy. but all the Balkan
states feel that they have vital inter-
ests in the disposition of the Turkish
empire. And they naturally feel that
1t would be regrettable to the last de-
gree to find themselves on the wrong
side in case new and important rear
rangements should occur.
From a military standpoint the cap
ture of the Turkish capital would In
evitably spell the end OF effective
Turkish operations. The pressure
on Egypt would be relaxed, the end
of the dream Of holy war be quite
clear, the Russian problem in the
Caucasus be simpliied and a channel
opened for the transport OF great
stores of Russian wheat, winch the
allies plainly need.
All of which means that the cam
paign to force the Dardanelles Is OF
the first Importance. But it Is too
early TO intimate that it will prove
the turning point OF the war. Assum.
ing that the nentrals still remain neu.
trail, Germany and Austria will be in
no worse position than they were be.
fore Turkey declared on their side.
Carrying the war into Turkey is
thus simply an important part OF the
grand strategy on which the allies
are relying for ultimate victory; a
strategy which includes attacking the
German states at every vulnerable
point, from the International food
supply to the armed forces of the ma
lions In the field.

Grain Review.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.f
CHICAGO, March 9.-Wheat today
was rather flighty. Prices opened at
overnight advances Of from 2A to Is
Heavy buying and news that London
did not expect forcing of the OAR
danelles for at least month, was re-
sponsible for this advance and for
later advances which sent prices
higher. Then followed heavy selling
which at one time carried prices back
to 1915 and 119%, which represented
recessions from the opening of q and
IL.
Corn also was higher today than
yesterdays close when the market
opened. Foreign and domestic buy
ing was the cause. Later there were
fluctuations with the general trend
downward.
Oats felt the trend of prices in 9TH
er grains and after opening up on
yesterdays close, later showed re-
cessions from the opening.
Provisions were easier on larger
receipts than expected.
