How ManyThin People Build
Themselves Up to Normal
Standards

Do you realize that unless your
weight is up to normal you are actu-
ally in danger of serious illness? No
better proof of this is needed than the
strict rules Of the insurance COM
panies which forbid the issuance of
insurance to those who are under
weight.
Many thin people find that they
gain weight steadily while taking

The Positive Benefits to Accrue.

Those who are inclined to complain
on the score Of infringement of per-
sonal liberty. would do we'll to forget
that phase Of the subject and to re-
member what prohibition is going to
mean in hundreds Of thousands Of
homes. To be sure that growing
boys and young men are henceforth
to be practically free from the dan
gers Of the drink evil, is great gain
for society. The economic benefit
that will accrue to homes and to
communities as q whole will be al
most beyond computation. We are
not dealing with a question that is
now open to argument but are re-
ferring to one that was settled last
month. 50 that any further discussion
becomes academic. Those who do
not like the idea Of prohibition must
accept the inevitable; yet we are in
clined to think that they will change
thei1 minds when they see the good
that will surely follow the closing Of
saloons and bars. The capital and
energy that have gone into the MAX
ing of intoxicants will find ample OPP
portunity in various other fields. The

and SO are some of the other tales.
The scenes are varied and the stories
carry one far away into the realms of
fairyland, to European lands or to the
Saharan desert. They have been Sc
lected primarily for their interest to
boy and girl readers. but they have
other values is we'll, both literary and
moral. Some of them are especially
good for story telling or reading
aloud. They represent some of the
10Th century's best-known writer's for
children and include such favorites
as Ruskin's King Of the Golden Riv-
oAa III o"iaA-S tSA ilSl Va

This is the delightful account of
happy girlhood in one of the fairest
and richest of all countries. A book
recting many wrong ideas. so gen.
orally entertained. of our Southern
neighhor. Miss Godoy. now a resi-
dent Of the United States, is excep-
tionally well qualified to tell the most
attractive and naturally less known
side of Mexican life. Her father
Professor Jose f. Godoy, constantly
prominent in Mexican public life
while in that country. was at various
times Minister to Guatemala, Minis
ter to Cuba. First Secretary to the
Mexican Embassy at Washington
and a Mexican representative at va
rious Expositions in the United
States. notably the Pan American at
Buffalo at the time Of the assassina-
ton Of President lMckinley. Miss
Godroy. while her father was Charge
d'Affaires at Washington, had tho
high honor of christening the Mexi-
can warship Vera Cruz. To read her
story is to learn much and at the
same time make, charming personal
acquaintance.
