OFFENDING FAT AND LEAN
Taft Denies Report He Lost Ninety
Instead of Eighty Pounds While
He Was President.

The man who claims credit for re-
ducing William Howard Taft's
weight, during the four years of his
incumbency of the White House, is
out with statement which may call
for an EMPHATIC contradiction from
the former president, asserts the
Christian Science Monitor. Says
the trainer referred to: "Mr. Taft
lost ninety pounds in the four years
he was president and during which
he placed himself under my con-
troll" Many people will remember
how Mr.. Taft disposed Of similar
assertion soon after he left office.
Said he, in effect: "Among the mis-
representations to which | have been
subjected is that l lost ninety pounds
during the last four years. This is
untrue. 1 lost only eighty pounds"
This brings back story of Alex
ander H. Stephens, who had been
vice president of the Southern Con-
federacy, and who, after the Civil
war, was repeatedly elected to con-
gress from Georgia. He was an ex-
ceedingly thin man, and, one day,
there fell under his observation a
newspaper item saying that he
weighed ninety pounds. In reply to
this he wrote a letter to the editor
of the offending journal demanding
an immediate retraction. 81 will
not be slandered in this MANNER" he
protested. "My weight is "a pounds"
The former vice president was him
self an editor, with a habit of writ
ing very long articles for his paper
in Georgia, and the contemporary
which had made the unwelcome
statement regarding his weight re-
fused to retract it for the reason, it
said, that ''Mr. Stephens must have
had one of his editorials in his
pocket when he last tried the scales.
This would account for the differ
ence of four pounds between the two
figures"

EVERY MAN HAS HIS STAR
Influence for Good Luck Comes Only
With Use of Coin, to Aid Com
munication, French Say.

A superstition the Americans have
been taught to respect is that of the
coin and the star. The French say
that every man has his star, but he
can't secure its influence for good
luck unless he uses a coin to put him
in communication with it, observes
Paris correspondent. If the proper
coin is used the star can be called
on to exercise its protecting virtue,
and once this has been established
there is no reason for the fortunate
soldier to worry further. The ques-
ton in the minds of the Americans
is whether American coin will have
any influence with the stars.
American soldiers have discovered,
however, that the most popular GUS
tom with the French is that of rub
bling wine or brandy behind the ears.
To many Americans this may seem
an uncalled-for waste of good French
drink, but the French soldiers be-
lieve implicitly in the practice.
The proper time to perform this
action, according to the French, is
just before going into battle, when
the wine is passed around to brace
the nerves of the soldiers. No mat
ter how careful the dispenser Of the
wine or brandy is, there are always
few drops dripping from the con.
tainer. 1t is these that the soldiers
are anxious to catch. They hold
their hands underneath and when
the drops of wine OF brandy fall on
them they quickly rub the fluid be-
hind their ears. But few of them
ever rub it on their tongues.

Your Kidneys

The kidneys and liver are the body's
organs to carry off waste and poison.
When they don't work, bad health fol-
lows, and unless you take care of yourself,
disease may follow beyond the power of
medicine to cure.
Because of the seriousness of these
diseases, you should take Vim Hepatica,
the universal system purifier, at the
earliest sign of any trouble with bowels or
liver. This great nature medicine IS COM
posed of eight of the most powerful cura-
tive herbs, and the certainty with which
they restore kidneys, the liver and bowels
to natural, healthy action is attested by
thousands. who have been helped when
all other remedies and treatment proved
va1ue1ess. "...l
F. M. Cawthorn, a prominent farmer
and stocknan of Mt. Juliet, Tenr., says
that after taking Vim Hepatica he felt
like a wagon that had been oiled up and
put in fine running condition.
Weknow that. Vim Hepatica is a remedy
tof real worth. We invite you to come in
