A heavy or puffy chin may be re-
duced by means Nof a rubber chin
bandage which may be bought in al
most any beauty shop. This is worn
at night and reduces the flesh by
sweating it off. Before putting on
the chin bandage the face should be
washed thoroughly with hot water to
which 10 to 20 drops of benzoin
have been added. Do not use cold
cream anywhere near the rubber, as
this Injuries it. When the bandage
is taken off Immediately apply an
astringent. A simple wash consists
of one dram pulverizeds alum and
one ounce each of alcohol and of
water. This can be applied twice a
day.
Many thin women have large ap-
petites and eat great quantities of
food, which do them no good what
ever, because of faulty digestion.
the first things a thin woman
should do is to consult good doctor
to find out if her digestion is oper-
ating satisfactorily for of course it
is useless to adopt a richer diet if
the stomach will not assimilate it.
And this is just what the thin woman
must do. Butter, olive oil, cream
cheese, buildings, candies, ice cream,

rather than poultry; mackerel and

Practically so per cent of the gar

enormous amount of crops. In order

Millions for a

One of the greatest American million
aires said to his physician, ga million
dollars, Doctor, spot cash and no grum-

the sick man groaned and turned away.
All his wealth could not make him
happy or contented, for happiness large
ly depends upon digestion. Without
health where does happiness come inf
After all the stomach plays great
part in everyday life. Without q
healthy stomach and good digestion our
blood is thin, watery and POOR, our
heart action is weak, our liver does not
do its duty, and man is miserable and
unhappy. Prevent disease by putting
the house in order and strengthening
the system against the germs of disease.
Or. Pierce, of the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, n. Y,
years ago understood diseases and their
prevention, and he discovered certain
roots and herbs which were natures
remedies, and succeeded in putting them
up in a form that could be easily pro-
cured at the drug store (liquid or
tablets. This he called DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. This Dis
covery gives no false stimulation be-
cause it contains no alcohol or any mar
cote. 1t helps digestion and the as

you cannot hope TO eat between
meals ana at all hours and not grow
fat and shapeless, neither can yor
expect to gain weight If you are in
the throes Of indigestion and wher
every bit of food which passes YOU
lips is turned to acid.
Scientific men have compiled a
table of heights, of weights and ages
showing what you should average
between the ages of Is and so. II
you differ from this to any appreci-
able amount, it would be wise Of you
to adopt treatment.
A woman five feet one inch in
height for instance should weigh at
the age of twenty-four, 124 pounds;
from twenty-five to twenty-seven
she should weigh 1875; from thirty
to thirty-four, 12s; from thirty five
to thirty-nine, 131. From forty to
forty-four she should tip the scales
at 1873 or 134 and she should not
vary from that up to the age Of go.
1t is very, easy for you to obtain
one Of these tables Of heights and
weights, and study il. There is no
excuse for a woman's allowing her
self to become out of proportion.
To become thin it is mainly neces-
sary to avoid fat producing foods.
The following come under this head !:
Thick soups, candy, sugar, pies,
buildings, syrups and sodas, white
bread butter crackers, biscuits, dried
fruits, dried peas or beans, cereals,
maccaroni, salmon, bluefish, pork,
veal, sausage, carrots, turnips, rice,
parsnips, beets, spices, malt or any
liquors.

ferably) SKINNED milk, buttermilk,

crops, such as rye. All trash and
rubbish should be piled and burned

MAINE WENT

The September election in Maine
has always been watched with inter-
est throughout the country. as it has
been considered fairly Indicative of
political tendencies in the nation at
large. The saying: LAS Maine goes,
SO goes the nation" is doubtless some
what overdrawn. as Maine elections
have sometimes been so complicated
with local conditions hat national
policies received scant consideration.
But it is a fact that in the campaign
just closed in Maine, national issues
and the fact that the Republican ma
jority in Mondays election was one
of the greatest, if no the very great
est in the history of that--state, is
something thai can he viewed with
the greatest satisfaction by Repub-
licans everywhere, and which the
Democrats will find it exceedingly
difficult to explain away.
a remarkable fact is that with the
greatly increased total vote. duo to the
u Nv W lIttp Nv SlluSLtlOD.
the Democrats polled only a mere
handful moro votes than in the last
election. and that the Republican vote
Is ,alnns' double that nf the Democrat
ic. This can scarcely be interpreted on
the basis that all the women voted
Republican. That would check I'D
approximately with the totals. blu it
does not stand to reason. The press
report says that the indications are
that a large majority Of The women
voted tho Republican ticket. That is
undoubtedly true. And we predict that
when the facts are known it will he
found that about an equal ma ioritv
of the men voted for the Republican
candidates. In other words, about
one-third of the men of the state, and
one-third of the women, voted the
Democratic ticket, and the remaining
two-thirds of each sex cast Republic
an ballots.
Chairman Hays has undoubtedly
sized up the situation accurately in
his statement that the Republican
victory in Maine ]"evidences the de-
moralization Of the Democratic or
~ganization. the reputation Of the ad-
ministration of their leader. Wood
row Wilson. and the complete con-
domination of the campaign conduct
of Candidate Cox" And. If it were
possible to analyze the situation item
by item. it would probably be found
that the last named consideration has
been at least as potent as the other.
