New System of
Fat Reduction

Here's new way for all fat people to
laugh together at that old bugaboo-
Obesity. The saying that there is moth
ing new under the sun" does not now
apply to fat people any more. Here is
something new for them-a new sensa-
ton, a new pleasure a new and grace
ful figure, easily found by any one who
Is passing beyond the limits of slimness
Every one has heard of the Marmola
Prescription; that harmless combination
of fat-defying elements discovered by one
OF our foremost physicians. Now, from
the same high authority. there comes
another idea-the idea of condenslng
these same pure, harmless, ingredients
into pleasant little tablet. Taken after
eating and at bedtime. they help the
stomach to dispose of all the fatty foods
converting them into compact, solid flesh
muscle and energy, without dieting or ex-
ercise. Marmola Prescription Taplets
regulate the entire system-do for YOU
what bodily exertion and self denial can
not do, and the fat, once routed, is gone
for good. You can prove ali this at
trifing cost Marmola Prescription Tab
lets are sold by all druggists or sent post
paid by the Marmola Co., S64 Woodward
avenue, Detroit, Mich. A large case
sufficient to bring lasting results-ds

opine that 1.-THE Canary" has to do with
a bird As matter of fact, however, it
is a diamond, bird of gem, worth a
fabulous sum. It's stolen and pawned
and auctioned and swallowed, and, Of
course, recovered. In the recovery OF
this jewel Miss Sanderson and Joseph
Cawthorn have play for their inimitable
ts slents, both in the spoken word and in
the syncOpated melodies written by Ivan
Caryll and Irving Berlin.
And good as Julia and Joe are, they
are not the whole show, by any means.
Surrounding the stars is a company

There's dainty Marie Callahan, a grace

Doyle and Dixon, two of the fastest
steppers to grace a local stage in many

AIaude Eburne a real comedienne, whose
Irish maid role is a capital foil for
Cawthorn's humor-and
Several others who look pretty and can
sing or dance as occasion requires-and
large and comely chorus.
No Julia and Joe show would be COM
plete without a ditty song by Cawthorn,
and he gets his chance in the third act

Miss Sanderson has several songs, per-
haps her most pleasing being Il Have

INVITATION TO

Mexican Foreign Minister
Made Offer Of Special
Train For Use By Com
mittee To Make It's Inves-
tigatiOn Close At Hand

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, JAM, 15-
Senator Fall, chairman of the Senate
subcommittee investigating Mexican
affairs on the border, declined today
to accept an invitation extended by
Luis Cabrera, minister of finance in
the Carranza government to visit
Mexico.
Minister Cabrera's invitation, con-
veyed in a telegraphic message from
Mexico City, offered a special train
for the personal use of Senator Fall,
to travel anywhere in Mexico and con-
duet the investigation. He rendered
the invitation, he said, not to Senator
Fall, as an official, but to "Mr. Fall,
an American citizen"
Mr.. Cabrera suggested that a per-
sonal tour of Mexico would "yield a
truer keyhole of the door, distorted
by lenses Of prejudice"
Senator Fall, in wording his teIe-
gram of declination, disclaimed any
but friendly interest toward the Mex
ican people, and he reiterated the pur-
pose of the committee to learn the
real truth about Mexico.
