was cancelled.
Indeed the entire social calendar was
thrown into chaos and the large lunch

meet Mrs. Gam, the dinner in honor

Of these events cancelled will be given
later in the season, most Of them will
Be held over until next Winter.

How to Lose Fat
a Pound a Day
on a Full Stomach
Do Just These
Tue Simple Things
Fat MeIts Away

Science has made important dlScov-
cries in fat reduction. The average
fat person can now rip off fat a
pound day-four to seven pounds
every week!-on a full stomach,
with never a hungry moment. Thus
it is foolish now to stay fat.
This is what you do: Take a tea
spoonful ordinary Jad Salts in a
glass of water a half hour before
breakfast every morning. This re-
iuceS moiSture-w weight instantly.
Also cleanses the system of the
waste matter and excess toxins that
most fat people have, and banishes
puffinesS and bloat.
Then do this about eating. FILL
YOUR STOMACH-eat your fill
of lean meats, vegetables like spin
ach, caulifioWer, cabbage, tomatoes,
etc, and lots of salads. Eat lot.
Eat all you can hold. Don't go
hungry minute Cut down on but
ter, sweets and desserts, bread. Eat
any fruit except bananas, for deS-
Sert.
That's all you do. Fat seems to
melt away. The coarse lines of over
weight give way TO the refined ones
OF slenderness. You lose as much as
a pound a day. You feel better than
for years For in this treatment YOU
achieve two important results. The
Jad Salts clear your system Of toxins.

Aimar a Fitting Ancestor
for Long List of GAL
liant Rulers.

The last Bourbon ruler has abb
Dictated. .Alfonso XIII of Spain is
king no more, and for the first time
in several centuries no Bourbon
holds q scepter Of power.
The history Of the House of Bour-
bon can be traced back to the days
Of the Crdsaders-1,0 900 years ago.
About the beginning Of the seven
( tenth century, a Bourbon became
king Of France and during the next
two centuries members of his royal
lineage were absolute monarchs Of
most Of what now is France, Spain
and Italy.
The turbulent days Of the French
+ Revolution marked the beginning of
the decline in Bourbon power. They
were finally driven from the thrones
in France and Naples, and after
1860 it was only in Spain the Bour-
bons remained mOnarchS.
And now like the Hohenzollerns
in Germanw, the Romanoffs in Rus
STA and the Hapsburgs in Austria,
the Spanish Bourbons have been
swept from the throne by the wave
of democracy that came in the wake
of the World war.
Contrast to Old Days
1t was the destiny of Alfonso
XIII. born king in 1886, the post
humouS son of the Short-Ived AL
fonso XII, to be king in an age
when many thrones crashed-in
marked contrast to the days when
his ancestors ruled with unqueS-
toned authority.
From the time of the first Of the
line, Aimar the Crusader, ten
centuries ago, the Bourbons were
caught in the swirl of intrigues,
wars and counter wars, assassina-
tons.
Some were wise rulers; some were
cruel Or stupid All played big
part III history from the ninth
century until the present time.
Ruled Wisely and Well
Henry ~, first Bourbon king of
France, ruled wisely and Well-and
died ingloriously with a knife in
his back Under the Louis kings
who followed Henry absolute mon
archy was established in France.
The power of the ruler was SUI
preme. The feudal system con-
trolled the masses until their con-
dition became SO deplorable the
French revolution was inevitable.
Louis XVI, a Bourbon, died under
the guillotine with that great per-
sonality, Queen Marie Antoinette.
Then for eleven years no Bourbon
was on the throne, but after the
three-year reign of Napoleon, Louis
XVIII, brother of the executed
ruler, was made king.
AbdicatiOn First Break
Through a succession Of abdica-
tionS and reservations the French
line ended with Louis Philippe in
1848 when the third republic was
proclaimed.

Alfonso Last Bourbon Whose
Line Dates Back 10 Centuries

corporated into rapidly growing
Italy and Francis II abdicated.
The beginning of the House of
Bourbon are obscured in the black
fog Of the dark ages. Certain it is
that Aimar was the founder. He
live d in the town of Bourbon
rArchambault in Central France,
from which the house takes its
name.
Aimar was buried on foreign soil
at Antroch, a victim of the terrible
plague. But the line he started
lived on, carrying with it traditions
Of gallantry and ability to face
danger. He was a fitting ancestor
for all the BourbonS.
In the years after his death, up
through the dark ages, his name
was a legend which inspired other
Bourbons to carry on. His de-
scendants included John of Bur
gundy, Charles, constable Of
France, and Antoine de Bourbon,
who as king of Navarro estab-
lished the royal line in 1854.
His son Henry, first king of
Navarro, later became Henry ",
first Bourbon ruler of France, and
started the dynasty which for nearly
five centuries controlled the thrones
of leading European powers.
Next: How Henry " became. the
first Bourbon king of France.
