How Mir. Taft Lost 75 Pounds

From the w Orld work.
 A majority of newspaper readers, who have seen photographs of this distin- guished citizen siashing at golf ball, have notion that he reduced his weigh. 75 pounds by working overtime on the links. Professor Taft himself gives this practical advice:
 q have lost 75 pounds since March 4. 1915. My diet has not been severe. l have not drunk great deal of water not more than a glass or two at my meals; I have given up bread and toast and all farinaceous food, all butter and fat confined my meat to beef and mutton anc fowl and eschewed pork and veal, have omitted fat fish, like salmon, and have taken no sweets of any sort. You can eat all vegetables but potatoes, and fruit that has not too much sugar. You ought to take moderate exercise every day. have tried to play a game of golf, or walk four or five miles each day. You ought not to lose too rapidly, be- cause it is likely to injure the muscles Of your heart if you do; and above all you ought to be examined by the best physician you can get Don't get a quack. Have your physician examine you, then

TAUGHT ENGLAND A LESSON

Several weeks ago Edward D. Adams in private conversation, called attention to some of the financing that has char acterized the British government since the European war began MT. Adams is especially qualified to give opinions, con- jectural or final, respecting the effect upon Englands currency system of this new financing. He has been for 25 years the representative in the United States of the Imperial Deutsche bank of Ber- lin In addition, his long continued in- vestigatonS when he was preparing for the great enterprise established on the banks of the Niagara river to develop electric power were carried on upon the continent of Europe and m England, and his achievement in successfully organiz- ing the Northern Pacific Railroad com pany reflects an association and co-op- ei ation with European investors in the securities of the Northern Pacific.
 Mir. Adams called attention to the fact that there is now outstanding about s120, 100000, American money. of currency is sued on authority of Great Britain be- hind which stands gold. These notes are of smaller denomination than the Bank of England notes. They appear to have passed readily into circulation, and sug- gested to MT.

FIRE BOYS DANCE is BIG
SUCCESS IN EVERY WAY

The annual ball of Ely's great lit
tie fire department given in Bio hall
on Friday night was grand sue
cess from every view point. The
large hall was filed. and the dane
ers had no more room than they re-
quired. while the number of specta-
tors was unusually large. The rou-
lette dance proved to be a great at
traction. Circles were drawn on the
floor and numbered-a wheel was
placed on the stage and at frequent
intervals the wheel was turned. When
the music stopped the couple fortu-
nate enough to land on the circle
numbered to correspond with the
number on which the wheel stopped,
was awarded a beautiful prize. Some
thirty prizes were disposed of in this
manner and added considerably to
the delight of dancing to the excel
lent music furnished by Meyers or
chestra. At the hour of twelve o.
clock grand prize was awarded,
whistles were blown. bells we're kept
ringing and a general jollification
with all the best wishes for happy
New Year was INDUCED in. The
committee In charge, composed of
Assistant Chief Hull, Messrs. Jen-
kins and Hull had worked unceas-
ingly for weeks past and were just
ly entitled TO the grand success which
crowned their efforts.

caps. balloons, streamers, horns,
bells and noise producers of every
known description. Gordon's orches-
ira furnished music both for the
dance and the banquet. and until

SALT LAKE STICKS TO
! THE WEND0vER ROUTE

According to a telegram received
by G. S. Hoag. state consul OF the
Lincoln highway, on last Tuesday
the Commercial club of Salt Lake has
unanimously endorsed the Wendover
route. This comes in the nature OF
a big surprise in view of the fact that
when Mr.. Ostermann and Mr.. Hoag
were In Salt Lake they appeared be-
fore the Commercial club and Mr..
ostermann< then offered to make an
Immediate expenditure of $4,000 in
improvements on the route south OF
the lake As heretofore told in the
News this offer did not seem to ap-
peal to scme of the Salt Lake business
men and for some unknown reason
they preferred to spend much slarg-
er sum on far less desirable route.
1t is stated that 1t will require $780,
900 to put the wendover route in
anything like passable shape and
when 1t comes to putting this amount
into the enterprise there are many
who believe that Salt Lake will be
found far in the background.
Salt Lake is certainly not entitled
te any consideration from the busi-
neks men OF Ely and IT is quite like
ly that Ely will now decide to work
with Ogden. and Salt Lake may be
eliminated from the Lincoln high
way. Such action would certainly be
warranted under all the conditions
Since the closing OF the exposition
in San Francisco and the trave
in the future being to southern Cali
fornia, Ely is sure to be IN the linz
(which will attract the greatest mum
ber OF tourists. The Wendover can
not and win not be completed fol
several years, and in the interim
Ogden is going to get the business
The Ogden people are now engaged
in building gondola cars on which
autos can be ran without the slight
est interruption. A tourist can drive
his automobile directly on to one ol
these gondola cars where 1t will he
securely fastened. and while sitting
comfortably in his machine he will
be hauled by a s. p. train across the
great Salt Lake and landed at Lucin
which will save the traveller one days
time. BY this route he can cross the
great Salt Lake in perfect comfort
the route will be materially shorten
ed; unpleasant spots in the road will
be avoided and the tourist will enjoy
ship. It will at once be seen that
such route would attract practic-
ally every touris from New York to
San Francisco. They win see the
great mining industries in this dis
trict and lose nothing. The Ogden
men are entitled to great credit for
their enterprise and the scheme thy
have worked out will be the greatest
attraction the Lincoln highway as
sociatjon can hold out.
II is certain that Ely will lose
nothing by the action of the Salt
Lake people. and it is now up to the
business men of this district 20 show
the Salt Lake crowd that we do ns't
al prove of t5aIr underl and dealing
