You will feel so good-so ener.

be SO great that you will immensely
enjoy a daily walk Of several miles
and lose fat.
While you are losing fat you will
be gaining in. energy-in endurance
in ambition.
Just try one S5c bottle of Kru-

.ONE C. ". MAY.
PASS UP 'B|'

Unless patriots and art lovers
Of Charleston, s. c., change their
minds, the Washington Bicen'
tennial Commissions display of
original Washington portraits In
1892 must get along without the
Trumbull portrait Of the First
Pre- sident, which row hangs in
the Charleston city hall.
The Charlestonians simply feel
the risk is too great, and do not
want the full-length picture, the
work Of John Trumbull, to make
the journey to the National
Capital.
Meanwhile, Representative Sol
Bloom, generalisSimo Of the BIZ
centennial, has expressed keen
disappointment. He wants every
portrait of Washington brought
here for a gigantic display, and
said:
"By bringing these portraits
here from all over the world,
we will give hundreds Of thou
sands Of persons an OppOrtu-
nifty to see them. So long as
they remain where they are,
only a comparatively few can
see them. 1 fervently hope
that the city Of Charleston
will send its Trumbull pOr-
trait"
Thomas R. Waring, president
Of the Carolina Art Association,
is heading those who want the
Trumbull picture to remain where
il is.
