moment, or taking strenuous
exercises or drugs
IRON coast-to-coast, you nowhear
1 women singing the praises of a
thrilling new reducing method. A
method which DR.. Damrau of New
York demonstrated in tests among a
group of intelligent and cooperative
peoplewhof followed directionsimplic-
lily, was responsible for an average
loss in weight of z pounds per month.
Most amazing, this method does
NOT call for special diet lists. You
never suffer a hungry moment. Nor
is it necessary for you to take stren-
uous exercises, or drugs.
All you have to do is eat sensibly,
which means that you avoid over
eating, and drink 81 of a glass of
Welch's Grape Juice, mixed with ID
of glass of water, before meals and
at bedtime. Thus reducing the ca
loric intake considerably.
How This Pleasant Way
Takes of Excess Fail
Nothing could be easier, or more
pleasant. Yet!-this is what hap
pens. First, this delicious drink salts
fies your craving for rich, sweet
foods. You have less desire to over
eat fattening foods-but you do feel
comfortably full. Second, the grape
sugar in Welch's is quickly con-
sumed, and by this process helps
nature to consume excess fat.
Thus weight is lost naturally and
safely. And this remarkable method
is just as beneficial and effective for
overweight men, as it is for over
weight women.

BOOKLETS TELL OF
VITAMIN D MILK
ISSUED IN CONNECTION
WITH NEW PRODUCT
NOW AVAILABLE

An interesting and informative
pamphlet dealing with the merits
and vital facts that every mother
should know about Vitamin D
milk, is available on request at
the Adams Dairy.
The booklet, which is given
away free, tells all about this So
called Sunshine Vitamin" and
explains in clear, concise Ian
guage, just why Vitamin D milk
is needed by youngsters and
their elders.
Seven reasons are set forth as
follows in it, detailing why this
milk should be a part of the daily
diet.
They are:
"1.-Helps Prevent ricketts,.
Vitamin D milk tends to ward
off that disease of the bones and
teeth known as Ricketts, which
sometimes afflicts children and
results in bowed legs, flat feet,
imperfect chest development, and
other physical deformities.
"2.-Promotes Sound Teeth.
Childhood is the time to implant
sound teeth for Later life. Vita
min D milk helps do it.
"3.-Builds Strong Bones. The
growing youngster needs Vita
min D to help the body as
Simulate the calcium and phos-
phorus in milk so that the body
framework will group up strong
and straight.
"4.-Expectant Mothers Need
1t. Vitamin D milk gives them
the minerals they need in disable
form Calcium and phosphorus)
for protection during this trying
period.
"5.-Nursing Mothers Need 1t
Also. Nature tends to rob the
bones and teeth of the mother of
these minerals, to provide them
to her baby. Therefore, an added
dietary source of supply is neces-
sary. There is an old adage to
the effect that every child costs
its mother a tooth which need
not be true with Vitamin D
milk.
"6.-Adults Need 1t Too Vita
min D milk all during life con-
tributes important advantages to
the diet and to physical we'll
being.
"7.-Science has long recog-
nized the need for an inexpensive
source of Vitamin d in the daily
diet. Few foods contain it. Our
Vitamin d milk now provides it.
Vitamin D helps make disable the
calcium and phosphorus which
milk so abundantly supplies.

PRESIDENTS POWER

The much-abused neutrality
act gives the President authority
to prevent or diminish two prac-
tees which did much to draw
the U. S. into the last war. One
is to prevent American citizens
travelling in the war zone on
ships belonging to belligerents.
That would have prevented the
loss of the Lusitania in 1915. It
would not have hlped in the
Athena, because exceptions are
made for Americans fleeting from
the war zone. The other grant
of authority allows the President
to place restrictions upon use of
