your lower back and thigh. The
side kick with feet pointed straight

ducing the hips, when practised
faithfully 10 or more times with

II you wish to increase rather
than reduce your size do the same
exercises, but more slowly, and

This search is being prosecuted to- day in the vicinity of the Willis home.
 In explaining his sudden renewal of the search for the missing wo- man, Chief Reynolds stated that there were several reasons which he considered of the greatest im- portance.
 These included a statement which the chief said was made to him' by Lowell Willis, aged IS, the oldest son, who said his father had threat ened his mother on several occas- ions and the finding of note from Mrs. Willis to the officials of the Webster bank where her money is deposited in the names of her two oldest children, Bertha and Lowell. This note states that she had been threatened, and that in the event of anything happening to her, she wished the money to be held in trust for the two children.
 The chief also said he had re- ceived letter from the parents of Mrs. Willis, Mir. and Mrs. David Brallia of Greenville, Iowa, stating that their daughter was not there.
