Thin, nervous, undeveloped
men and women everywhere are
heard to say, Il can't under
stand why | do not get fat. eat
plenty of good nourishing food. a"
The reason is just this: You
cannot get fat, no matter how
much YOU eat, unless your diges-
tive organs assimilate the fat
making elements of your food
instead of passing them out
through the body as waste.
What is needed is a means of
gently urging the assimilative
functions of the stomach and in
testines to absorb the oils and
fats and hand them over to the
blood, where they may reach the
starved, shrunken, rundown It's
sues and build them up. The
thin persons body Is like a dry
sponge and hungry for
the fatty materials of. which il
is being deprived by the failure
of the alimentary canal to take
them from the food. A splendid
way of working to overcome this
sinful waste of flesh building ele-
ments and to stop the leakage OF
fats is to try Sargol, the famous
flesh building agent that has
been so widely sold in America
In recent years. Take a little
Sargol tablet with every meal
and see If your cheeks don't
quickly fill out and rolls of firm,
healthy flesh form over your
body, covering each bony angle
and projecting point. The Grown

William r. Wilcox OF the Republican
National Committee. took cognizance
to-day OF reports that Charles Evans
hughes had prepared a message of
congratuiation to send 10 President
Wilson concedins his reelection. but
had withheld 1t on the advice of Re-
publican leaders, by denying that any
such communication had ever been
prepared. He said the reports were
founded on nothing but smoke"
Mr.. Wilcox came TO Republican
national headquarters here from
Lakewood where he and Mr.. Hughes
have been taking a rest from their
campaign labors. He reiterated his
previous statements that the time had
not yet arrived for the Republicans
TO concede the election 90 President
Wilson, nor would he make any fore
cast as to when a definite statement
In that regard might be expected
either from him or Mr.. Hughes. He
said that even when the official count
in California is known. there might
still be conditions in other close States
keeping the final result in doubt.

Washington, Nov. 21. - President
Wilson's recommendations for rail-

gress will be practically the same as
those embodied in his special address
last August when a nation wide rail-
road strike was pending. The Presi-
dent discussed some of the details to-
day with the Cabinet. In his special
address the President made six specific
recommendations. Two providing for
an eight-hour day as. a legal basis of
work and of wages on railroads and
for commission to observe the opera
tion of the law, were embodied in the
Adamson Act.
The others which remained unacted
upon and which will be renewed by
the President are:

GERMANS SWEEP
INTO WALLACHIA
BY BOLD STROKE
Capture Large Section of Coun-
try From Rumanians Who
Retreat 40 Miles
FACE EN- VELOPMENT T
Teutons Before Craiova;
French and Serbs Still
Chasing Bulgars
FACE EN- VEL LOPMEN I

BY bold and rapid strokes the Teu-
tonic invaders apparently have con-
quered a large section of Northwestern
Wallachia from the Rumanians
Petrograd's official bulletin to-day
announces a Rumanian retirement in
this part of the battle front to the re-
gion of Filliash, forty miles northwest
of Craiova. Judging from the recent
reports of the operations, this means
that converging attacks by Austro-
German forces moving southwark in
the jul valley and eastward along the
railway from Ossova have compelled
the Rumanians to withdraw from the
Osova region and execute a rapid re-
treat in the jul valley. This move
was made, 1t appears, to prevent the
retreat of their armies from being
cut off.
Whether even the rapid retreat indi-
Gated was In time to save the Ruma-
man armies in this region is rendered
doubtful by the German announce
ment that Teutonic troops are now be-
fore Craiova. The railroad running
through Craiova to Bucharest affords
the only convenient line of retirement
for the Orsova and jul valley armies
While the Rumanians have evidently
reached the junction point of the jul
valley road with the main line at
Filliash, the loss of Craiova would
effectually bar their way eastward ex-
cept across country.
Reinforced i'm East
Farther eastward in Wallachia the
arrival of Russian troops seems to
have strengthened the Rumanian
defense. The Russians took the often
sive north of Campulung, according to
Berlin, but We're repulsed. The Ru-
manians are resisting persistently in
the Alt valley, south of Rothenthurm
Pass, but nevertheless were compelled
to yield important positions to General
Won Falkenhayn's troops.
Chasing Bulgarians
In the other chief field of present
military activity, the Macedonian
front, French and Serbian troops are
their pursuit of the Ger
man and Bulgarian forces which evac-
uated Monastir under entente pres
sure. Berlin reports the entente ad-
vance as feeling OUT of the Ger
manic Bulgarian positions by recon-
noiterlng detachments. The new line
Is indicated by press dispatches to lie
about seventeen miles northward of
Monastir and is reported to be strongly
entrenched and defended in part by
fresh German forces.
East of the Monastir region, Berlin
declares, Serbian attempts to advance
were repulsed. West of Monastir the
Italians, according to Paris, repulsed

On the Somme and Ancre fronts

Mexican Commissioners Given
Last Opportunity For AMIGA
BILE Solution Of Problems
WILL WITHDRAW LATER
But Not Until Border Is Ade-
quately Protected by Car
rama; Cabrera Objects

Atlantic City, n. j., Nov. 81. - The
American commissioners to-day gave
to the Mexican commissioners what is
understood to be the last opportunity
for an amicable settlement of the
problems that have arisen because of
CarranZa's failure to provide adequate
protection for life and property along
the irternattsosl border.
In joint session. Secretary of the
Interior Lane, as chairman of the
American commission, informed Mr.
CarranZa's representatives that the
American punitive expedition would
be withdrawn within reasonable
time and under conditions that would
not impair the dignity of the Ameri-
can government or leave unprotected
the territory just south of the border
now patrolled by the Americans
Incident to such withdrawal he out
lined the manner in which the Am
erican government was prepared to
guard the long line of frontier and
TO run down and punish any maraud-
ing band that attempted a crossing
into the United States. He made it
clear to the Mexicans that this gov
ernment would not tolerate any re-
strtctions on the pursuit of bandits by
American troops.
How Luis Cabrera, chairman of the
Mexican commission and his col
leagues received what is regarded as
the last word of the American COM
mlssioners, was not expected to be
known until after the session came
to an end this afternoon. Steady op-
position to the plan by Mr. Cabrera
and continued insistence that further
activities of American troops in
Mexico must be restricted in various
ways have marked the conferences
OF the joint commission for many
weeks and it was the apparent deter
mination of the Mexicans not to Weld
that caused Mr.. Lane to place before
PRESIDENT Wilson all the facts in the
case When he went into the confer
ence room this morning he carried
with him the assurance of the Presi
dent that he had unqualified backing
or MS plan. The Mexicans were
aware of the Presidents attitude and
II was regarded as probable that they
would recede from the position tbey
had taken.

Big interdenominational problems

In the present day, together with the
part that Methodism must play in
solving the situation of present-day
conditions formed the central points
of five big addresses this morning by
men nationally known for their ac-
uVity in church advancement
What America is to do with her
wealth, gotten through the European
war? How to properly train and edu-

to-day? How to bring the spiritual
training more in the schools? What
ls TO be done to give the millions OF

ent social service and labor problems ?
immigration? Prohibition? These
are only few of the many big points
touched upon and forcefully presented
TO 2,500 enthusiastic Methodist laymen
this morning and this afternoon in the
Chestnut street auditorium.
All day speakers of national repute.
who have spent years in study and
survey at the head of big church
branch organization work, devoted
hour after hour to continuous discus

Iaymen. Interspersed with music and

Few phases of present national sit

talks lent additional interest and force
TO the tremendous program of the
