Thousands of people suffer from excess

lifelong skinniness and think nothing will

force makes fat grow after years of thin
ness, and Is also unequalled for repairing
the waste of sickness or faulty digestion
and for Strengthening the nerves. This
remarkable discovery is called SargoI Six

acknowledged merit have been combined
in this peerless preparation, which is n
dorsed by emminent physicians and used
by prominent people everywhere 1t is
absolutely harmless. inexpensive and eff

A months systematic use of SargoI
should produce flesh and strength by cor

ing highly concentrated fats to the blood.
Increased nOuriShment is obtained from
the food eaten, and the additional fats
that thin people need are provided Arnold
Drug Co. and other leading druggists sup
ply Sargol and say there is large de-

Germany's Food Supply Will Las
That Long Saws Aggie Prof.

Manhattan, Kan, April 7.-Starva-
ton conditions are impossible at the
present time in Germany, but should
the war continue for another year
there would be a. serious shortage of
food for the German people, believes
L. b. Call, professor of agronomy in
the Agricultural college. AS the price
of foodstuffs rise, there will be a ten
dency among the German people to
slaughter their live stock and thus to
save the cereals ordinarily used as
feed
Germany will suffer next year on
account of a shortage of fertilizers
horse power, and farmers. The
slaughter of livestock will furnish a
temporary food supply but later there
will be a lack of both meat and milk

WALKED 20 MILES TO WED.
Now Pioneer Kansan Has Farm for
Each of Chi-L!ren


Cawker City, Kan, April lone of
the old time settlers in this section is
b. F. Hoops, Hollander who came
to Kansas in 1871 and settled on Oak
creek In Smith county, near the coun-
ty lines of Osborne and Mitchell. He
was a single man at the time, but he
had health and push. He thought
two could get along better than one,
so he took unto himself a wife.
There was scarcely a vehicle of any
sort in those early pioneer days in this
section, so he and the lady of his
choice walked to Mankato, a distance
of about twenty miles. and were mar
ried and walked back to the farm.
Health and financial success have IA
vored them. Seven children have
been born to them, four boys and
three girls. Most of them have grown
up here, and when any of them have
married the father has given them a
farm.
Mr., and Mrs Hoops are about 80
years of age

Moreover, an unknown number of miners suffered from the effects of breathing the harmful fumes and gas es given off by the burning or the iu- complete explosion of some explosive Consequently, the Federal Bureau of Mines, which is endeayoring to in- crease safety in mines and to abolish conditions that tend to impair the health of miners, is studying the kinds of explosives used in mining and the conditions under which these eXplo- sives can be used with least danger to the miner.
 "lnhammable dust of gas is seldom,
 if ever, found in quarries or metal mines. and the danger from using ex. plosives there is less than in coal mines but as the figures show. the number of men killed and injured yearly in accidents caused by eXplo. siyes proves the need of both miners and mine officials striving to see thao none but proper explosives are used and that these are used properly" The bulletin contains chapters on combustion and explosion; blasting and mine explosives; fuse detonators and electric detonators firing blasts by electricity; the use of explosives , in excavation work the use Of eXplo- siyes in quarTying; the use of eXplo- sives in metal mining and tunnelng; drilling and blasting methods on New York rapid-transit tunnel; magazines and thaw houses: permissible eXplo- sives, etc.
