THE CONFLICT OF
LOVE AND FAT

The average man will "jolly" with
the stout girl, but he steals glances
over her shoulder at that Miss Slen-
der. He would sooner hold the hands
of the latter in a fatuous silence than
really enjoy himself with the other.
Such is the power of line. Just line
from chin to toe, or nape to heel
that's all. But it rings the merry
marriage bell.
Fat women should not repine-but
refine-their own lines by means of
that phenomenal-the Marmola Tab
let. No exercising or dieting is neces-
sary. Simply take one bottle after
each meal and at bedtime. and in lit
tie while the overplus of fat-the
coarseness of aspect-will disappear,
The figure will become slight enough
to permit of a maidenly contour, a
pure outline, being fashioned with
corset and gown. Then victory-if
not revenge.
Although Marmola Tablets often
take off uniformly a pound of flabby
fat a day, they are quite harmless
(being made of the famous fashion
able prescription: k-oz. Marmola. az =
OF. Fl. Ex. Cascara Aromatic Az OF.
Peppermint Water). Consequently
even timid ones are safe in using
them. for no ill-not even a wrinkle
or stomach ache will follow their
use; seventy-five cents secures a large
case at any druggists or by mail from

ing in cooperation with the Rev. DR..
Winfield s. Herman. pastor of Zion
Lutheran Church, to have a city-wide
observance of Father and Son Week,
from February IL to Il. Because the
week was observed here in the fall,
in cooperation with the plans of the
Pennsylvania State Sabbath School
Association, many ministers will not
observe the week to a great extent,
but all of the clergymen will make
special Observance of Father and Son
Sunday, when fathers and sons will
be urged to attend church services
together. This" says Mr.. Dinsmore,
'is a timely occasion for the observ-
ance of the week. Fathers and sons
are being separated because of the
war, and for that reason those who
are fortunate enough to be together
should learn to cooperate with each
other"
The week is being observed ma
tional1y an dthe movement has spread
to other countries.
