If you are carrying around five or
ten pounds of unhealthy fat YOU are
unnecessarily weakening your vital or

destroys the beauty of your figure.
There is no need of anyone suffering
from superfluous fat. If you want to
reduce your weight in a simple, safe
and reliable way, without starvation

much time as you can in the open air,
breathe deeply and get from any good
druggist a box of oil OF korein cap

one before retiring at night.
Weigh yourself once a week so as To
know just how fast you are losing

you are down to normal.

DECADES SERVICE
Notable Record of the Pennsylva.
mia Commissioner of Health,
Who Is Reappointed

DR.. Samuel C. Dixon. whose nomi-
nation as commissioner of health, was
sent to the Senate last night by Gov
ernor Brumbaugh. was to-day con-
hrmed by that body. This is DR..
Dixon's fourth appointment to this
responsible position n within a few
days he will rave completed ten years
of service in this office which is of such
vital Importance to the welfare OF the
people OF the Commonwealth.
DIR. Dixon was appointed by Gov
ernor Pennypacker on June 8. 1905,
shortly after the passage of the act
OF assembly creating the State De-
partment of Health. He was reap
pointed March l. 1907, by Governor
Edwin s. Stuart and on March l. 1911,
by Governor John X. Tener. Under
his able direction the PENNSYLVANIA
Department of Health has achieved
first place among the public health
organizations in this country and the
work which has been accomplished
has attracted attention at home and
abroad. At the present time the de-
partment has between three and four
thousand employees n its activities
each TO every section of the State.
In the campaign against tuberculosis
which ten years ago was the chief
cause of death in Pennsylvania, one
hundred and fifteen tuberculosis dis
pensaries lave been established n
three great State sanatoria at Mont
Alto. CresSon and Hamburg have been
constructed under the supervision of
DR.. Dixon. In ten years tuberculosis
has fallen from first to second place

the rate is steadily declining year by
year.
Four thousand deaths and forty
thousand illnesses from typhoid fever
was the annual toll eNacied from
Pennsylvania citizens ten years ago.
To-day this has been decreased more
than rs per cent and although in the
meantime the population of the State
has increased more than a million, the
number of deaths from this cause is
only one-fourth the former figure.
During the past year the death rate
of 1919 per thousand inhabitants was
the lowest in the history of the State.
More than seventy-eight thousand peo-
ple are alive in PENNSYLVANIA to-day,
who would have died had the death
rate of 1906 continued. OF these IS
916 lives. 40,52S have been saved by
the reduction of four principal dis
eases as follows: Typhoid fever. 49,
$50: tuberculosis, 1924: d~iphtheria,

During these years 1.T67.O0O babies
have been born in Pennsylvania whose
births have been recorded with all the
facts concerning them. in the Bureau

vania Department has served as a
model for numerous other States that

which hav been here i~naugurated.
