TO TAKE OFF FLESH

Eat Plenty of Wholesome Food But Breathe Deeply and
Try Little Oil of Korein With Meals

Some people seem to be able TO eat
whatever they please without its in

while on the other hand other folks,
inclined to stoutness. try to eat light

Such a condition is both unnatural
and dangerous but can often be
quickly overcome by practicing deep
breathing in the open air. The blood
OF the average overstout person SEEM

to consume the excessive fatty ma
terial in the food But frequent open
air deep breathing forces additional
oxygen into the system. largely over

further increase in weight. Then il
this deep breathing plan is accompan-
led by the use of a little oil Of korein,

each meal and again before going to

duce the weight even in a very few
days.

II is pointed out that most Of the
theories OF the world peace advanced
10 date have been based upon the es-
tablishment of an international po-
lice force In the present situation
between the United States and Mex
leo and the working out of the gem
eral plan OF Pan-Americanism, those
behind the movement see the possi-
bllity OF test OF the theory upon
which may rest the hope OF interna-
tional peace.
Successful joint action by the ma
tions of the Americas in pacifying and
restoring stricken Mexico, would have
great influence in Europe, il is be-
lieved toward proving the practlcabil-
ity OF international "police" work.
Latin-American powers do not re-
gard Mexican responsibility for the
Carrizal clash as proved. In fact the
report Of Captain Morey rather sug-
gests to them possible provocative ac-
tion by the American troops. Their
view IS that the stake for which the
nations Of the two continents are
playing in advancing Pan-Amerlcan-
ism is too great to be jeopardizeu
through war. based on such a dispute.
