HOW TO REDUCE
 YOUR WEIGHT
4 SIMPLE. SAFE. RELIABLE WAY:

4 SIMPLE, SAFE; RELIABLE WAY:
 People who are overburdened with superhuous fat know only too well the discpInfo fort and rddicu1e that over-stout people have to bear.
 If you are carrying around dVe or ten pounds of unhealthy fat you are unnecessarily weak entng your vital or- gdns and are carrying a burden which destroys the beauty of your figure.
 There is no need of anyone suffering from superf1uous fat. If you want to reduce your weight in a simple, safe and reliable way; without starvation diet or tiresome exercise, here is a test worth trying. Spend as much time as you can in the open air, breathe deeply and get from Lee & Osgood or any good druggist box of oil of korein cap sules; take one after each meal and one before retiring at night.
 Weigh yourself once a week so as to know just how fast you are losing weight and don't leave off the treat nent or even skip a single dose until you are down to normal.
 oil of korein is absolutely harml ess. Is pleasant to take, and helps digestion. Even a few days treatment has been reported to show a noticeable reduc tion in weight, footsteps become light er your work seems easier and a light CT and more buoyant feeling takes pos session of your whole being.
 Every person who suffers from su- perfiuous fat should give this treatment 8 trial

THE WINNERS.

I don't mind the man with reds bTooded kick, At a real or fanciful wrong; I can stand for the chap with a grouch
 If he's quick To drop in when joy comes along. I have praise for the fellow who sayu
 what he thinks, Though his thoughts may not fit tu with mine, But spare me from having to mix with
 the ginks Who go through this world with s whine. am willing to listen to sinner or saint Who is willing to fight for his rights, And there's something sometimes in
 an honest complaint That the soul of me really delights, For kickers are useful and grouchea
 are wise, For their purpose is frequently fine, But spare me from having to mix with
 the guys Who go through this world with 8
 whine.

track leading right to the edge of the

feet long, built right in between the
rocks like a letter S. There we found
the big searchlight, 8 or 9 feet in dia-

when they want it, they just haul the
