Indoor Life Makes Fat TRY OIL OF KOREIN TO KEEP WEIGHT DOWN, OR TO RE-
 DUCE SUPERFLUOUS

People who are confined within doors and who are deprived of fresh. invigor- ating air and exercise must take pre- caution to guard against over stout ness, as fat acquired by indoor life Is unhealthy and a danger to the vital organs of the body. Lack of exercise in the fresh is said to weaken, the oxy- gen carrying power of the blood. so that 1t is unable to produce strong mus cles and vitality and the formation of unsightly and unhealthy fat Is the re- suit.
 If you are 15 or 20 pounds above nor nal weight you are daily drawing on your reserve strength and are constant iy lowering your vitality by carrying this excess burden. Any persons who are satisfied in their own mind that they are too stout are advised to go to Eugene Jacobs Drug Store or any good druggist and get box of oil of korein capsules, and take one after each meal and one just before retiring at night
 Even few days treatment has been reported to show noticeable reduction in weight, improved digestion and a re- turn of the old energy; footsteps become lighter and the skin less flabby in ap- pearance as superfluous fat disappears.
 oil of korein is inexpensive. cannot injure, and helps the digestion. Any per son who wants to reduce Is or 20 pounds Is advised to give this treatment trial.

plied that he would deliver the lecture and drew a pistol.
 shot was fired, Copeland continued. but he said he did not fire it, and did not know who did. Rogers fell, he de- clared, and, after lowering his companion to the floor, Copeland said he saw Hall firing at him. After firing one shot, Copeland testified, his pistol snapped and he walked out of the room.
 The defense rested late this afternoon after a number of witnesses had been called to testify as to the requirements of the priesthood in an effort to refute Blacks claim that he was formerly a priest and copy of the fourth degree oath of the Knights of Columbus, which was alleged in a circular distributed in connection with Black lecture, had been placed in evidence.
 The state will begin it's testimony in rebuttal tomorrow morning.

From the New Republic.
 What the success of the last British blow on the Somme chiefly proves is that the armies of General Haig have finally achieved-or are at the point of achiev- ipg-tactical superiority over the Ger mans. We no longer read complaints about lack of artillery support on the contrary the skill of the British gun ners is attested by German commanding officers. Infantry no longer runs gall lantly wild; company officers have learned their duties; connection between battalion units is being maintained; staff work of a scientific character has at length ordinated the efforts of the auxiliary arms, while each particular arm, artillery, engineers, air service. transport and supply, has gradually been brought to a point of real efficiency Kitchener's army has ceased to be a mass of raw material, and has at last become an army.

TIPS FOR BIRMINGHAM

While in auction one might have doubt as to whether he should lead from strength or weakness, in playing for a farm loan bank. there is no zone of doubt. Lead from weakness.
 This is a tip given to Birmingham by Capt. w. s. A. Smith, member of the farm loan board. To the correspondent of The Age-Heraid he said today:
 Florida, as practically every other state has made the mistake of attempting to impress us with the remarkable pro- ductivity and the immeasureable re- sources with which it has been blessed. We are perhaps imbued, as a result, with an idea that Florida is not so greatly in need of financial assistance. Such ar- gument too, has a distressing effect on the farmers in the organization of their mutual associations. They feel that their state has been superfluously represented.
 We should be informed accurately of the weaknesses of a state. of those con- ditions which handicap it in it's develop ment. One may rest assured that we will be informed as to the productivity and value of the agricultural acreage and also as to the integrity of the would be borrower.

SHOULD SPEAK OUT LOUD

And. in addition, there is nothing that destroys interest in meeting more than a witness who cannot speak clearly enough for those in the audience to hear. Let Birmingham put on the stand men who can hold the spectators. It is not necessary that we be held.'
 This Is the only statement that mem Der of the board has authorized in the south. It may or may not be significant of possibilities effecting Birmingham.

At the Bijou

Among the productions of the pres ent season none shows more evidences of appealing to the hearts and minds of the patrons of the International Circuit of theatres than My Mothers Rosary" written by Edward E. Rose and now being presented at the Bijou theatre.
 The play deals with theme that just now seems to be in all minds, the unfaith tendency of our modern life. Through this defect John Marvin. a type of the man of today. loses for tune. home and is in danger of the scaffold. His friend. Father Kelly, stands his friend and brings him back to happiness and honor.
 Mixed with this tragic note is a strong comedy interest in Patrick Shea. who has just come over from the "ould sod" and Moya O'Dea, real colleen from Inisfainhard. Ireland nor should Bridget Mally be overlooked, Father Kelly's aunt and his house. keeper.

When a jury, whose foreman was M. P. Messer, the well-known real estate man, brought in a verdict of mot guilty in the case of Nettie Gatewood, negro woman charged with violation of the prohibition law, on "snitch" evidence, a perceptible ripple of applause came from the negro side of the courtroom.
 Judge William E. Fort, much perturbed at the incident, spoke to the bailiff.
 What was that? Who was that?"
 There was no answer. Silence reigned in the courtroom for a moment or two and then Judge Fort said:
 "Whoever that was I'll put you in jail in two minutes if that is repeated. This is now show

"T'he Little Minister"

One may employ a great many ad- jectives in describing Lady Babbie, the fascinating heroine of J. M Barrie's Scotch comedy. The Little Minister" and yet feel that he has not done jus tice to his subject. Lady Babbie is an elusive young woman, blessed with a great amount of humor back in her pretty head. When you think you have discovered her dominant traits you find her displaying fresh assortment of them. Lady Babbie is pretty, arch. piquant, graceful coy, fresh, girlish, artless and artful. winsome and sym pathetic and these are the attributes Maude Adams possesses and employs with due appreciation of their values in the unfolding of the comedy. The presentation of '"rhe Little Minister at the Jefferson theatre is being awaited with pleasure.

Lind and Adah Currie Lind, both capable and clever entertainers Homer Lind has a good voice and Miss Lind is an excep- tionally clever performer on tne violfn This act is one of the most entertaining and attractive that has been presented in a long time and the audience greeted the number with encore after encore.
 The bill as whole Is well up to the Lyric standard and is entertaining throughout.
 No better act of lrs kind ever appeared at the Lyric than the Koban Japs, clever equilibrists. Some daring feats are presented in this number has some of the stunts" performed are amazing.
 The Majestic Musical Four furnish some excellent musical entertainment the anvil chorus number and the Hunt song being especially attractive. The members of other brass instruments and there is plenty of comedy interspersed.
 LeClair and Sampson present laugh able burlesque on ''the strong man" and are billed as Nearly the strongest men in the world" This act is a laugh all the way through.
