 No doubt this fund will be follow
 ed by ten times the amount the statement reads, should t be evi- dent that this new disciple of Wilson

 will spend huge sums of money to se- cure the election of Governor Cox. which the empire regards as guar antee that the United States will take membership in the league of nations Coming upon the heels of Governor CoX's charge that the Republican com mittee has assembled a "slush' fund of $15,000,00O to aid the candidacy of

Lean and Fat

The lean man. when he'd gain
in weight. will find the process
quite a treat; he is indeed a
lucky skate, for all the good
things he may eat. His bill of
fare may be a scream. no tempt
ing grub must he eschew, and
he may food his works with
cream, and eat mince pies and
doughnuts, too. But when fat
man is inclined to- lose a ton or
SO Of lard. the process is
dreary grind. the Shedding is eS-
trenely hard. For him the busy
housewife bakes sickly loaf Of
sawdust bread; for him there
are no luscious cakes, but he
must eat bran mash instead If
he would take a midday snooze,
he hears the learned physician
say, BE active, if your grease
you'd lose, and walk four hun
dred miles day. Your fat in
creases while you sleep, it gains
when you are sitting down; go
forth, go forth and walk heap,
and circumnavigate the town."
The fat man starves and tolls
and grunts, and when he goes
down town to weigh, and note
results Of all his stunts. he finds
he's gained eight pounds day.
Then he goes back to living well,
consuming pies and pork and
beef, and all the neighbofs laugh
and yell, and make his life a
long-drawn grief. !;
