Indoor Life Makes Fat
TRY OIL OF kOREIN TO KEEP
WEIGHT DOWN, OR TO REDUCE
SUPERFLUoUS FAT.

People who are confined within doors
and who are deprived of fresh, invigo-
rating 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 or
gans Of the body. Lack Of exercise in
the fresh air is said to weaken the OK
ygen carrying power of the blood, so
that it is unable to produce strong
muscles and vitality and the formation
of unsightly and unhealthy fat is the
result.
II you are Is or 20 pounds above nor
NAL weight you are daily drawing on
your reserve strength and are constant

ing this excess burden. Any persons
who are satisfied in their own mind that
they are too stout are advised to go to

HE FORGOT THE CRATES.
That Is Fate Of Man Who Figured
Circus Statistics.

1t is said that a statiStician once at
tempted to figure out how many acres
of ground it would take to grow the
hay, oats. barley and bran consumed
by the 735 horses, thirty-two cameis
and ten zebras of the Ringing Broth
ers' circus plus the acreage that would
be REQUIRED 10 raise the grain TO make
the bread, buns, cake and sweetmeats
that are eaten by the 1870 people or
Ringlingville during the months of q
given road season. Report has 1t that
he used up the entire acreage OF Con-
necticut and had started in on Massa-
chusetts when someone reminded him
that he had left the herd of forty one
elephants. giraffe family. the hippo
potami ard the two rhinoceri out of his
calculation. whereupon he threw up the
job in despair
1t is to be hoped that another CAL
culator will take up the task some day,
for it would be interesting TO know
just what the grand total represents.
Commenting upon this subject, A. l..
Webb, chief commissary with the Ring
ling Brothers circus which is to ex-
| hioit here Friday. Sept. l, said in a re-
cent interview:
problem TO the statisticians. Just now
we are mostly concerned with the hlsh
cost OF living There Is scarcely an ar
ticle of foodstuff that has not scared in
price during the past few years. Sugar,
bread, meat and many other things
have taken a shoot skyward. 1t costs
us II cents more per meal per person
than it did year ago. And the cir
l in
this direction. Its people work hard
every day and, what is most important.
they work in the open.
The out of door air whets the appe-
tite as nothing, else can. There are
no dyspeptics in Ringlingville An or
ganiZation the size OF Ringing Broth
ers' can not be moved with rapidity
unless its working men are well fed;
nor can II give finished performances
unless the same treatment is afforded
its artists. For some unknown reason
there is a popular belief that the cir
Gus does not set a particularly attrac-
tive table. But if the layman will only
consider for moment the size of the
salaries paid some of the performers
he must conclude that they demand the
best. z 7 ~. -
Every single person travelling with
Ringing Brothers is boarded by Ring
ling Brothers. ~ And the working men
in the most lowly position have exactly
the same menu as that which appeases
the appetite of the highest saIaried
arenic performer. More than that,
every man has absolutely all he wants
to eat. 1t is nothing for a browny can
vasman to consume two steaks plate
Of potatoes, another of bread and three
cups Of coffee for breakfast. Three
meals are served for all each and every
day. The only requirement Is that the
people of the circus report on time for
meals. The dining tents are never
open for less than one hour for each
meal and usually remain open for a
longer time. Experts in such matters
who have travelled with US, have made
reports showing that the people OF the
circus fare better in the matter of
wholesome food than S. per cent of the
families in the United States.'-Adver-

RUSSIA Holds UP
MUNITIONS WORK
CaptiouS Inspection and
Changes in Contracts
Threaten TO Make De-
liveries Too Late
ENGLAND SAID TO
BIZ REASONABLE

Repeating his recent assertions OF
ielays in the execution OF Russian
munitions contracts by American con-
eerns, which, he believes, are partly
taused by difficulties thrown in the
way by the Russian Government for
political reasons, Baron Charles
knorring today set forth some details
d internal affairs at the Artillery
Fuse Company, Of this city as he sees
hem.
Baron Knorring came recently from
Russia and has taken out his first
naturalization papers in this country.
lie was for a time an inspector at the
Wilmington plant and later was chic
esident inspector at the Eddystouc
AmmunitiOns Corporations plant az
Eddystone. Both companies are sub
contractors for the Baldwin Locomo
i've Works.
No doubts can be entertained that
III concerns having ammunition or
lers will fail more or less in their
execution said Baron Knorring TO
day Perhaps the Recording and
Committing Machine Company. Of Day
ton, o., will be a rare exception, as Il
lis able to complete at least the larger
part of it's order within the limit OF
the eXtention of the contract time.
The Eddystone order for 1850 900
fuses and a part OF the American Can
Compsny's order cannot be wholly
completed within that time.
Matters generally are far from good
and the prospects are not encourag.
ing. Some of the failures OF the sub
contractors. will be directly due TO
the contractors. Take, for example
the situation at the Artillery Fuse
Company.
THAT company i at present working
on British order calling for 100000
brass time fuses, under a contract con
cluded q year ago. The contract origi
nally called for the work to he com
pleted by December 81. 1916. but an ex
tension was given 10 February 2, 1917
Of this amount, 100000 have been com
pleted up to date. Tile plants canacit,
for assembling fuses on the British orde
nov runs 10 1000 or 10000 a day, anC
is increasing. 40 that the assertion mad,
ri the plant that nv tho middle Of thi
month it win be able 10 turn ont from
5000 20 1900 day is entirely within
possibility. EUt even on this basis. tn,
100000 still unfinished cannot be com
pleted IN the time left BY any possibil
ity. The British order is bound TO fal
nnless n further extension Of time il
granted.

that the aluminium parts for the fuses

OF the Artillery Fuse Company and
the General Electric Company TO IN

offers has caused considerable diff

Russian time-fuse inspector at the Ar

porarily at Eddystone. He is more
experienced than any other OF the
Russian inspectors. as was admitted
by the Russians themselves. having
behind him seventeen years OF engi-
neering practice. What is more im-
portant still. he was entirely familiar
