Having lived in the South all my
life, and EaTi@g bcel engaged II the

warranted in saying that I have never
seen a situation in the South apparent

last fall, that was worked out so rap
idly and as satisfactorily, and l wish
to say tat never before within my
recollection has a secretary Of the
treasury devoted as much time and
energy to the solution of Southern
problems, nor shown sucl knowledge
of and sympathetic interest in the ne
cessities Of that section. The relief
afforded tie South by Secretary Nc
Adoo was intelligent and effective and
his spirit of helpfulness was restrained
only by the limitations of law and the
obligations of his oath of office. The

WASHINGTON. March s1.-The
department Of agriculture. in a bull
letin just issued ON its recent fnvesti-
cations of anti-fat humbugs. states
that common ingredient Of the obes-
iity cures is thyroid. a drug made from
the thyroid gland which is still pug

of study.
Thyroid. In the opinion OF the gov
ernment scientists. is far too
dangerous a drug for Inexperienced
persons to experiment with.
when used as drug 1t mas very
powerful effect on the whole human
system and this information shouN
be sufiicient to warn anyone against
dosing himself blindly with It," says
the departments bulletin.
For medical use a number Of
sleeps thyroids are dried at tenn
,perature Of from 80 to 100 degrees
and then powdered. This powder
may be administered either dry. or
when treated with glycerin. a. a
liquid. ~
1t indubitably does reduce tissue"
says the department. "and therefore
those preparations which contain 1t
are especial favorites with those per-
sons who desire to rid themselves OF
what they consider is superhuous
flesh.
unfortunately It ID not possible to
remove tissue at will without running
great risk OF running health at the
same time. Abnormal deposits OF fat
are frequently accompanied by dis

kidneys. To remove these deposits
abruptly may we'll produce serious
