NO SUNDAY BARBER
WORK UNDER BILL
House Favors Measure to Cut
1t Out Over the Entire
State.
DECIDED OPINIONS HELD

Lincoln, Feb. 7.-(Special THE
bill to prohibit Sunday barber work
in Omaha, changed in form to cover
all cities and towns of Nebraska, was
put through the whole committee of
the house this afternoon and advanced
to third reading, after motion to
kill il was voted down.
Farmer members, began to knock
the bill after an amendment proposed
by Mr., Nesbnt had been adopted,
making it apply to all towns i'll the
state. Mr.. Andersen of Boyd moved
to indefinitely postpone it. The mo-
ton was supported by Mr.. Bates.
The other side OF the question was
taken by Mr.. Schwab. who roasted
the ruralists to brown turn. He said
the small town BARRIERS, as rule. do
not want to keep open on Sunday, but
the farmers demand it, when the lat
ter could just as well get shaved some
other day.
Mr.. Fults claimed that the present
law prohibiting common labor on
Sunday applies to BARRIERS and new
act is therefore unnecessary.
The ten commandments were rung
into the discussion by Messrs. REFS
ner, Olsen and Jacobson, who were
strong for the bill.
II move to amend by prohibiting
the repairing of automobiles and the
sale of gasoline" interrupted aBtes.
Gentlemen, you have got to set
tie this yourselves; "I'll take no part"
remarked heavily-bearded Hoffmeis-
ter, as the house yelled with laughter.

How TO Reduce Fat
Without Dieting
or Exercise

This is the time when fat people should
be thinking about reducing their weight and
should stop making the fat that is such .
burden to them. The best way and the cas-
lest way is the one about which so much
has been said and written this past year.
This way is the Marmola way. The famous
Marmoia Prescription has been prepared in
tablet form. These little tablets contain
nothing but the elements that go to change
the best things that produce fat into good.
strong blood. nerves, tissues and bone. More
than this. these tablets absorb and remove
the fat remaining at the rate Of two. three
or four pounds week. You must not con-
fuse Marmola Prescription Tablets with
harmful patent drugs and hurtful reducing
methods. These tablets go into your stom-
ach Just like the food you cat They build
up the Juices Of your digestive organs and
correct these juices so that they produce
no more fat They are harmless, yet thous-
ands Of men and women all over this land
today are Of firm figures and normal sizes
because Of these little tablets This is why
every druggist everywhere carries them in
stock and will sell them to you. II your
druggist does not have them or you would
rather send rs cents, the price of q case, to
the Marmola Company, 1854 Woodward Ave,
Detroit, Mich, they will send them to you
at once in a plain package, postage paid.
