Auswer-Your parents are making
great mistake in trying to force you
into doing something for which you
have no aptitude and in which you will
never succeed. Many fathers and
mothers feel that they have right to

them and this is why We have SO many
failures. Square pegs that never fit

Your choice, anyway. is much wiser

her, but during the last few years she
Is inclined to get little rolypoly and
she has been bitten by the reducing
mania. She has tried dieting and all
sorts Of exercises. She has been
baked and stewed and pummelled In
the beauty shops. but it doesn't do her
any good: just makes her tired to
death from the exercises and weak
when she goes without food. She is
getting desperate and I am afraid
she will try some OF these advertised
nostrums for weight reduction and ruin
her health. As she is. she suits me

Why she isn't content to stay rs she
is. can't imagine. Can you tell me
any way to stop her from starving
herself to death?
WORRIED HUSBAND.
Answer-1 am afraid not. Once q
middle-aged woman gets obsessed with
the idea Of attaining q boyish figure
nothing on earth will hold her. not
even the pangs Of hunger, nor the
vision that she beholds in the mirror
Of the ravages that dieting is making
in her countenance. For what a mid
dle-aged woman takes of of her
Waistline she adds in lines on her face.
The sanatoriums OF the country are
filled with young girls who have starved
themselves into T. B. trying to keep
thin. A multitude of middle-aged
women have wrecked their stomachs
and given themselves chronic dyspep-
sia by following diets that took of their
fat but left them invalided and with
stringy necks and pendulous cheeks
and compilations like saddle leather.
No woman should diet except under
the care Of physician. and no re-
putable physician will advise her to
do it unless she is afflicted with some
disease.

Farley Says People
Resent Interference
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Nov. 30.-Chairman
James A. Farley of the Democratic
National Committee yesterday ex-
pressed the conviction that "the peo-
pie of any city or State resent out
side interference in local affairs"
He made statement to that ef-
feet when reporters asked if he
intended to take hand in the Sc
lection Of Democratic candidate
for Mayor of Chicago next Febru-
ary.
Mayor Edward j. Kelly was urged
by a group of businessmen, club
women and friends last week to
seek renomination.' He declined,
however, to disclose his plans at the
time.
Some observers have predicted
States Attorney Thomas j. Court
ney, member of a Democratic fac
ton which has opposed the Kelly
organization on several occasions,
would enter the mayoralty primary.
Farley, asked if he would see Mr..
Courtney, said he probably" would
talk with him or any other party
member who desired an audience.
The national chairman conferred
with Democratic chieftains from the
West on post-election problems of
they party
He said the major purpose of his
tWo-day visit here was to arrange
for jackson day dinners, scheduled
for January 7. He announced there
would be Embarrassing dinners in
every State, adding that he thought
1t best to have one big gathering in
each State.

Britain May Increase
ak Burden in 1899
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, Nov. 30.-Sir John
Simon, chancellor of the exchequer,
who this year put through tax
boosts to pay for Britain's vast arms
program, told the House of Com
mons yesterday he would seek in
creased borrowing powers in 1888
because OF still greater war prepara-
tons
With the usual secrecy about bud
get plans, however, Sir John failed
to give hint whether taxpayers
would have to shoulder heavier
burden next year. They already
are paying a 2711A per cent income
tax and high levies on necessities.
Simon's statement was made after
Robert j. Boothby, Conservative,
asked for some indication of the
methods for financing the rearma-
ment program next year with a
view to allaying anxiety among
those engaged in trade"
Simon pointed out that the gov
ernment at the end of the present
fiscal year will have borrowed ap-
proximately f180,00O,00O of the
f400,000,00O (about $4,000 000, ,00O)
authorized.
I'm view of further expenditure
on defense preparations now con-
templated, have come to the con-
clusion that some further borrow
ing powers will be needed and it is
my intention at the appropriate
time next year to ask Parliament to
pass legislation to this purpose"

along without the famous sisters
next year.
Premier Mitchell Hepburn issued
q statement Monday agreeing with
DR.. Allan Roy Dafoe and Olivia
Dionne, the girls father, in opposi-
ton to exhibiting the quintuplets to

as far as the government of Ontario
is concern, that ends the matter" he

Navy Medical Corps
Personnel SHORTAGE
Cited by Rossiter
Continued improvement
In Health Trend for
Year Reported

Despite continued improvement In
the general health trend of Navy
men, activities of the Navy Bureau
Of Medicine and Surgery are being
hampered by shortage of personnel,
especially in Washington, Rear Ad-
miral p. S. Rossiter, chief of the
bureau, said in his annual report,
made public today.
There now are 800 medical officers
In the Medical Corps, which is CON
siderably short of the actual num-
ber required" Admiral Rossiter said.
Shortage of civilian personnel in
the bureau here has prevented
many lines of useful activity which
would result undoubtedly in i'm
proved methods and economies"
Lack of funds for Office upkeep
and for printing and binding has
made it impossible to replace worn
out equipment, provide labor r-saving
devices or to make any progress
toward the rebinding, listed as es-
sential to their preservation, of the
medical records of the personnel
of the Navy from 1872 to 1910. The
question of Office and filing space
here again has become acute, Ad-
miral Rossiter reported.
There has been a progressive de-
crease in the general admission rate
for naval personnel during the last
10 years as result of the general
improvement in the health of the
Navy, it was reported There were
no major epidemics of communicable
diseases during the last fiscal year,
and for the fifth consecutive year
there has been a decrease in venereal
disease.
Rapid growth of the Navy under
the expansion program, however, is
taxing the ability of the Medical
Corps to meet the demands made
upon it. according to the report.
The Naval Dispensary here dur
Ing the last fiscal year handled
44,875 Office calls, filled 3O,614 pre-
scriptions, made 1O,054 house calls,
administered TOOL physical therapy
treatments and made 6,793 labora-
tory examinations, it was reported.

ance and active bidding at the sale,
although prices were not as good as
they were last year nor were there as
many sheep sold. The heavy demand at
this years sale was for black-faced
bucks In preference to the white-faced
breeds, she said.
Mrs Nielsen had consignment Of
purebred 6uffoll1s at the Salt Lake City
sale, the foundation stock Of which was
purchased at the national sale IN 1886.

addressed 70 John C. Page, coma
missioner Of the bmEeam OF FeeEa-

project Is in Philips and Valley
counties.
The resolutions propose TO reduce

sion and other carriage works" Of the
project which are already constructed
SO that the Saco divide project may
be built on q feasible cost basis, ac-
cording Ia a letter 70 Page accompany
ing the resolution written by Otto NJ.
Christinson, secretary Of the Glasgow
board
This appears now to be the only
way this project can be approved I'M
less q federal grant or relief funds

In q joint conference between the
Glasgow and Malta boards, 1t was
pointed out that any charges for use
OF present project facilities win reduce
charges to landowners already In the
project, Christinson said. If the Saco
divide unit Is not built, there win be
no reduction Of these charges to land
owners. If It Is built, whatever sum is

The resolution passed by the Glas-

provided the compensation therefor,
which shall be an item of the construc-

It is provided, however, that the

It was pointed out by Josef Sklower,
