TOO FAT?
Here's a Simple, Safe and
Reliable Way to Reduce
Your Weight.

Maybe you have nearly worn out
body and patience trying to secure
satisfactory weight reduction by fol-
lowing drastic rules requiring starva-
ton dieting or tiresome, troublesome
exercises or drugging.
Even so, you should not lose hope
and imagine that you must carry thru
life a load of burdensome, unhealthy
flesh Here's a very simple, easy-to-
follow system of treatment that is
said to bring truly remarkable results
for others, and it will be easy to prove
what 1t can do for you.
Go to your druggist and get a small
box of oil of korein capsules. Take
one capsule after each meal and one
before retiring at night; also follow
the other simple directions that come
with the capsules.
This method should reduce your
weight ten to sixty pounds Cor what
ever you wish) in a short time and
leave your general health and figure
greatly improved.
You will be amazed at the improve
ment in your mind as we'll as your
body when you have begun to reduce
your weight.
OIL of korein is absolutely harmless,
is pleasant to take, and this treatm emit
is surely worthy of a fair trial if you
want to become thinner, healthier and
younger in appearance.-Adv.

Lawrence, Kan, April THE
freshman at the University of Kansas
may no longer find himself the target
of sophomore paddles and other haz-
ing tortures. The long standing Gus
tom decreeing that all first year men
students should properly be disciplined
by the men of the class above him has
been officially abolished by the adop-
ton of rules by the university senate.
Only one dissenting vote was cast
against the recommendation made by
the disciplinary committee that had
investigated several reported cases OF

The freshmen will continue to wear
small caps, not much larger than a
mans hand, as a mark of the lowest
class. The senate agreed that the
freshmen should still adorn their heads
with the "dinky'' but failed to fix
any penalty for noncompliance. 1t
was presumed on Mount Dread, how
ever, that the upper classmen would
see to it that the tradition is upheld
rigidly, as it is one of the oldest and
most firmly rooted practices of the
university. The senate also failed to
fix a penalty for violation of the new
anti-paddling rule.
