FAT FOLKS GAIN

Fine For Constipation But
Bran. Cream and Sugar

DIETITIANS SAY
EAT BRAN TABLETS

Fat people suffer a great deal from
constipation and many have been
eating Bran each morning with a
little cream and sugar and Bran is
excellent too, but many have discov-
cred the cream and sugar increases
their weight. Dietitians and doctors
say: People who are as heavy as they
wish to be, yet have constipation
troubles, should chew a spearmint
favored, INCREASING wheat bran
tablet each meal-one is enough and
results and relief from censtipa ton
come quicker, easier and without add

regularity induced by these Bran-O-
Lax Tablets cause the system to
throw off weight that is superfiuous
and they certainly do Danish all need
for ever taking different kinds of
laxatives. Get a CSC carton of Gill
bert's Bran-O-Lax Tablets at the

TRAGEDY oE The AIR

The tragic fate Of the Shenandoah
and its occupants, the failure of the
giant airplane to fly to Hawaii, when
all the details are known will doubt
less contribute to improvement in
aviation. Despite the horror of the
moment these events will be relegat-
ed to the list Of sacrifices man has
made to acquire dominion over the
air and be regarded as but the de-
tails essential to the working out Of
the problem. 1t no longer Is matter
OF doubt that mans view, once hui
morous respecting Darius who was
clearly of the opinion that the air IS
mans dominion" is now Serious,
deadly serious.
The catastrophe in Ohio may re-
suit in less of dependence on the
lighter than air method, of which SO
much was expected by the Germans
of their Zeppelins-and so little &C.
complished; the failure of the air.
plane in the Pacific is hardly COM
parable with the fate of the airship.
Nevertheless both events contribute
to the conclusion that much must
be done in the way of aircraft i'm
provement before we attain a basis
of confidence in them for the ire
mendous part they seem destined to
play, not only in war but in peace.
Colonel Mitchell, former chief of
the air service, has written book
for which as an officer under higher
authority he is being criticised; he
declares: "One-fourth Of the short
comings of our air service have not
yet been told, but they are going to
BE-" Must we depend on tragedy to
do the telling?

JUST WHAT'S THE TRoUsLE'

Federal enforcement agents hav-
ing seized Intoxicating liquors In the
possession Of some of the visiting
delegates at the convention of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars being held
at Tulsa, Oklahoma, the convention
thereupon passes a resolution DIS
approving the manner in which the
federal authorities carried out the
raid"
They should have been more
specific. We are left to guess az to
what the manner Of seizure actually
was. Was it abrupt? Was it pre-
ceded with an ingratiating smile
Was a hand held out PLAN up and
being ignored did it become mailed
first? Was any hush" money
sought or paid?
It does not appear so. What does
appear is that the enforcement
agents went through the baggage of
these delegates after the manner
they go through the baggage of those
coming into the country. AS 1t was
Just as Illegal for those delegates to
be carrying booze around in their
grips without a permit as it would
had they been caught bringing it into
the country, as the duty of these
enforcement agents Is to- enforce the
law wherever the law applies, it ap-
pears they were strictly about Uncle
Sans business. Should any Ameri-
can organization, least of all one
supposed to be made up of the
country's defenders, condemn an Of
fetal of that country for performing
his duties? Furthermore. if that Of
fetal erred in the manner of per-
Torrance the public should be in
formed wherein he did err.

she never Sfn1leQ, Sne sat so St1ll,
We knew she had a secret sorrow;
We felt that she saw yesterday,
And not-tomorrow!
Her hands were slim and folded in
Her lap. Her dress was pearly
Her eyes looked out across the world,
And far away!
Sometimes she caught her lip between
Her little teeth, sometimes her head
Dropped forward, but she seldom
frowned-
She sighed instead
And yet. although she never. spoke.
Though we played very close, in
deed,
There was a shadow on her face
That we could read.
And often we would tell ourselves
So soft the laces on her breast!
That tired heads might cuddle there,

this week of capturing a large mud
turtle weighing some 40 odd pounds.
The turtle was found in the road at

where he has retarded the pleasure
of the bathers at this point during

animal out to town in the rear of

expected that many may be rendered

the turtle furnishing the first course.
