MARKS EPOCH IN
STATES HISTORY
GREAT INTEREST MANIFESTED
IN PREPARATIONS FOR CEN
TENNiAL IN 1915

| Springfield. H., Feb. 1.-THE Hi
nois centennial celebration in 1918 IS
going to be the greatest public event
10 the history of Illinois," said Repre-
sentative John S. Burns of Chicago,
chairman of the publicity committee
OF the Illinois centennial commission,
today. II have talked with members
of the general assembly from all parts
of the state and they tell me the PEG
pie generally are looking forward to
the occasion with keen interest And
they will not be disappointed.
School children throughout the
state already are organizing and max
ing plans for the part they are TO take
in the great demonstration. State Sup
erintendent of Schools Blair, who with
Governor Dunno, is an honorary mem
Der of our commission, has brought
the matter forcefully to the attention
of county superintendent, principals
and teachers, and they have all enter
ed into the spirit of the affair with an
earnestness and enthusiasm that as
sures the unbounded success of their
undertaking.
MANY senators and representatives
have indicated an intense interest in
the work and plans of the centennial
commission and have volunteered
their support in providing for and ar
ranging the programs as outlined. One
of the most satisfactory features OF the
centennial plans. l find, is the idea of
holding a celebration in every county
of the state in addition to the general
demonstration to take place at the
capital.
Hundreds of thousands of resi-
dents of the state, of course, will not
find it practicable to attend the fete
at Springfield, but most of them will
be able to enjoy the demonstration in
their home community. Indications
are that there will be an unparalleled
celebration in every county of the
state and that the one hundredth ami
versary of the admission Of Illinois to
statehood will be forever after re-
membered by everyone who witnesses
it,

What Thin Folks Should

Physicians Advice For Thin, Unde-

veioped Men and Women.
Thousands of people suffer from ex
cessive thinness, weak nerves and fee
BILE stomachs who. having tried adver
tised flesh-makers, food-fads. physical
culture stunts and rub-on creams, re
sign themselves to lifelong skinni-
ness and think nothing will make
them fat. Yet their case is not hope
less. A recently discovered regenera-
tive force makes fat grow after years
OF thinness, and is also unequaiied for
repairing the waste OF sickness or
faulty digestion and for strengthen
ing the nerves. This remarkable dis
covery Is called Sargol. Six strength
giving. fat-producing elements of ac-
knowledged merit have been combin-
ed IN this peerless preparation, which
is endorsed by eminent physicians and
used by prominent people everywhere.
II Is absolutely harmless, inexpensive
and efficient.
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. Leading druggists sup
ply Sargol and say there is a large
demand for II.
While this new preparation has CIV
en- splendid results as a nerve tonic
and vitaiizer. it should not be used by
nervous people until they wish 10 gain
