Fat Folks Learn How to
Reduce Your Weight

Simple, Safe. Reliable Way
People who are over burdened
with superfiuOus fat, know only
too well the discomfort and rid
icule that overstout people have
to bear.
If you are carrying around 5
or 10 pounds of unhealthy fat
you are unnecessarily weaken.
ing your vital organs and carry
ing a burden which destroys the
beauty of your figure.
There is no need of anyone
suffering from superfuous fat.
If you want to reduce your
weight in a simple, safe and re
liable way, without starvation,
diet or tiresome exercise, spend
as much time as you can in the
open air, breathe deeply and
get from any good druggist a
box of tassco: take one tablet
after each meal and one before
retiring at night.
Weigh yourself once a week so
as to know just how fast you are
losing weight and don't leave off
the treatment or even skip a
single dose until you are down
to normal.
Tassco is absolutely harmless,
is pleasant to take, helps diges-
ton and is designed to consume
the excessive fatty tissue by in.
creasing the oxygen carrying
power of the blood. Even a few
days. treatment should show a
noticeable reduction in weight,
foot steps become lighter, your
work seems easier and lighter
and more buoyant feeling takes
possession of your whole being.
Every person who suffers from
supertluous fat should give this
treatment a trial, there is no.
thing better. adv.

70 YEARS At WAUPUN
VIM. HOLLYFIELD, MURDERER OF
LLOYD ADAMS, FOUND GUILTY.
A BRUTAL MURDER.

VIM. Hollyfield or "Blondy' the
murderer of Lloyd Adams at New
Diggings on March 18th, was found
guilty Of second degree murder at
Darlington last Friday. The trial
lasted two days. Judge Clementson
in consideration that the jury had
been lenient, did not impose the max
imum sentence but gave Hollyf1eld
20 years at hard labor.
The crime was a brutal and out
rageous one. HollyfieId, man of 80
years and of southern birth, was
chided by Adams, the foreman, %
years, educated and we'll liked, for
his treatment of the Hun miners I'M
der him. Hollyfield, the evidence dis
closed, had slapped and beaten the
miners until they threatened to quit
'Blondy" as Hollyfeld is known for
his fair skin and hair, went to New
Diggings and boozed up. He came
back to the office of the Hoskins mine
and during a conversation with Ad-
ans shot him three times. Two bull
let's went through Adams body in
flicting mortal wounds.
For Gods sake Blondy don't shoot
again; you've killed me now" scream
ed Adams as he ran to a window for
help. Hollyfield replied by shooting
again with his Colt 38 Ga most dan
gerous weapon) and cutting clear
through Adams finger as he raised
the window. Adams called for help
and "Blondy" fed.
The injured man lived from 4
o'clock p. m. until two the next
morning His diving statement brand
ed Hollyfield as a brutal murderer
infamed by drink. Hollyfeld gave
himself up at Benton.
The convicted man was born in So
Carolina and later lived in Tennessee.
He has a touch of the mountaineer
about him. He has been twice mar
ried, the first time divorced.
Lloyd Adams, the dead man, was
universally popular and his untime-
ly death caused keen regret.

WRITE SOLDIERS CHEEKY
LETTERS AND CAN GLOOM.

The. War Department urges every
one to write cheerful letters to the
soldier boys, whether overseas or in
the training camps at home Those in
authority say that the principal caus-
es Of soldiers absenting themselves
without leave may be traced directly
to discouraging letters from home.
These letters so prey upon the minds
Of the boys that they go home without
leave, which is a serious military Of
tense. Many of the boys are home
sick and blue letter from home will
not help him any. The better way,
and the way desired by the War De-
partment, is to write CHEEKY, chatty
letters full of home news, but free
from anything annoying.
