Thin Folks Who
Would Be Fat
Increase in Weight Ten Pounds or
More.

Increase in Weight Ten Pounds or
More.
I'D certainly give most anything
to be able to fat up a few pounds and
stay that way" declares every excess
sively thin man or woman. Such a
result is not impossible. despite past
failures. Most thin people are vic
tins OF mal-nutr' ton, a condition
which prevents the fatty elements OF
food from being taken UP by the
blood as they are. when the powers
OF nutrition are normal. Instead Of
getting into the blood, much of the
fat and flesh producing elements stay
in the intest'nes- until they pass from
the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to
produce a healthy normal, amount Of
fat, the nutritive processes must be
artifcially supplied with the power
which nature has denied them. This
can probably best he accomplished by
eating a Sargol tablet with every
meal Sargol is a careful combina-
ton OF six splendid assimiliat've
agents. Taken with meals they mix
with the food to turn the fattening
strength-giv' material of what you
have eaten into rich ripe nourlsh-
ment for the tissues and blood and
its RAPID effect has been in many
cases reported remarkable. Reported
gains OF from ten to twenty-five
pounds in a single month are by no
means infrequent Yet its action is
perfectly natural and absolutely
harmless. SarCol is sold by n. r.
Danforth, and other druggists every
where and every package contains a
guarantee Of weight increase or
money back.

Next to the Belgians the Serbs have suffered, per-

DEATH CLAIMS
MRS. HENRY B. MYERS.
EstimabIe Woman Passes Away at
Baltimore Hospital---Funeral
Tomorrow.

Mrs. Elizabeth Henkel-Myers. aged
56 years, wife of Mr.. Henry B. Myers,
member of the Board of County Com
missioners, and prominent merchant,
died on Saturday evening shortly after
Z o'clock at the Church Home Infirm-
airy, North Broadway. Baltimore, where
she had been a patient for the past
six weeks.
Death was due TO complication of
diseases, but it is thought TO have been
directly due TO shock from an opera
.tion to which the patient was subjected
Saturday morning. although she rallied
and seemed brighter after the effects
of the anesthetic
Besides her husband the deceased is
survived by the following children:
Captain Louis B. Myers, First Regi
ment. Nj. ~ G., Lieut. Charles r. My

The deceased was a sister of Or.
Charles B. Henkel, a well known local
physician. who was present when his
sister was operated upon.
Mrs. Myers had been in failing health
for some time, and it was thought nee
essary to remove her to a Baltimore
hospital about six weeks ago for spe-
cial treatment.
The body was brought here shortly
after midnight Saturday and taken to
her home, Cherry Grove Farm, near
Annapolis. whence the funeral viii
take place tomorrow afternoon at 2

dar Bluff Cemetery Funeral Director

THE GOVERNOR PLEASES
LARGE CONGREGATION.
Large Audience Enjoys Governors Ad-
dress On Citizenship


A large congregation was present
last evening at St. Margaret's Church,
the Rev. James Mitchell Magruder,
Rector, to hear Governor Goldsborough
speak Despite the recent snow and
biting cold weather, there were many
of the older parshioners present as
well as the younger members of st.
Margsret's parish.
The occasion was the Inauguration of
a series of talks, or addresses, to be
given from time to time throughout
the winter by prominent speakeIs. the
initial having been by Governor
Goldsborough. The Governor made
an excellent address taking for his
heme Citizenship. both respecting
and the layman and the churchman.
He talked on the citizens duty to his
church and to the State as well
The Governor address was
thoroughly enjoyed by the large audi
ence. and he was heartily congr atuIat
ed at its close. If the initial number
OF the series of addresses at St. Mar
garet's is indicative of their Success,
the outlook is most promising.

politicians visiting the State House
these early days of the Legislature and
who have got their ear to the grouAd
are bidding sad farewells to the good
old days when jobs adlibitum were
handed out to them and to their
constituents.
They are alive TO the fact that the
old order of extrayagant things has
passed and the new order of things
economical has come A hard Jolt Is
in store for them if the recomnenda
tions of the Goodnow Commission for
a reduction in legislative expenses are
adopted,and to their adoption the Dem
ocratic party is pledged
The report containing these recon
mendations has been handed to Gov
ernor-elect Harrington, who in turn
will submit it to the Senate and House
probably this week. 1t may even be
placed in the hands of the House Com

into detail and shows how it is possible
to prune the legislative bill to the
extent of $4,000 during each session
The recommendation is based upon
the extravagant bill of two years ago.
II was then far in excess of $500 000
The Commission believes that the bill
can be cut to $4,000 for each session.
The saving, according to the report
can be affected through a discontin
uance OF the practice of appointing
additional engrossing clerks at the enc
Of each session; a reduction in the
number of doorkeepers. messengers
and cloak room keepers.
1t is not proposed to hamper the
