Mildred stood in her nightdress in

Honora was stunned. She had
imagined Mildred as wretChed, heart

How Fat Folks
Nav Become Thin

If YOU are suddenly becoming stout,
or if YOU have been putting on nesh
for years, the cause is generally the
same-lack of oxygen carrying power
of the blood. This trouble occurs
mostly in men and women over thirty,
but it may be easily treated and
without any of the privations most
fat people imagine necessary to re-
duce their weight. Simply go to your
druggist and get a box of Phynola:
Take five grains after each meal and
at bedtime. Wonderful results should
be quickly accomplished by this SIM
pie treatment
Be sure however you get the genu-
inc Phynola. 1t is put up in original

HOW TO JUDGE A WOMAN
BY HER HAIR

There is real common sense in
just noticing whether the hair is
we'll kept to judge of u woman's
neatness or good taste. If you are
one of the few who try to make
the most of your hair, remember
that it is not advisable to wash the
hair with any cleanser made for all
purposes, but always use some good
shampoo. You can enjoy the very
best by getting some canthrox from
your druggist, dissolve a teaspoon
full in a cup of hot water. This
makes a full cup of shampoo liquid,
enough so t is easy to apply it to
all the hair instead of just the top
of the head. Dandruff, excess oil
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. Your hair will be so
fluffy that 1t will look much heavier
than it is. Its luster and softness
will also delight you. while the
stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.

corning the governments movements
in the strike. The operators chairman
refused to diyulge details when flrst

story after getting permission to con-
suit his attorney Rush Butler, who
was also called as a witness.

stand a moment after the attorney

operators to compromise with the
miners on a basis of more than the
II per cent. wage increase suggested

Get Into the Game.

The Salvation Army kettles have
appeared on the streets and the
CHEEKY ring of the bells calling atten-
ton to the fact brings the reflection
that only few days remain before
Christmas. Until we hear these bells
it's hard to believe that Christmas Is
so near. The Christmas trees piled
in front Of the Court house arbuso us
still more to the realization that I'M
less a present is bought for everyone
by next Wednesday night, somebody
is going to be nightly disappointed.
There is no use talk.Ag; every, year
people determine not to buy many
presents, and when the bells start
IN and the trees and holly and
wreaths are arranged for sale, the
spirit of one of the most thrilling
games in all creation is awakened
and folks who have determined not
to buy are the very ones who buy
with a vengeance right and left, early
and late, straight up to the last min
ute. In the face of the high cost of
everything, merchants say they have
done bigger business this year than
eyer before, and that many articles
will give out entirely by SATURDAY
evening. What do YOU make out of
this? Simply that people will buy,
buy, buy, no matter what an article
costs. II they haven't the ready
money they'll have it charged and 20
without more necessary things until
/ the bill is paid--often long, long
time after Christmas. And I'm com
ing to believe that the more thing
costs, the more importance is attach
ed to it's value. Let's hush up about
