ad now 2 shes so gene! : “Did you ever see such a change in any ‘one? Grace used to be positively stout. Now she’s one of the smartest dressed women I know. She must have done something to regain her youthful figure."* She did do something.

Try them. - MARMOLA Prescription Tablets The Poasant Way toReduce He Believed in Signs A stowaway from Greece surrepti- tiously entered the United States at Yuma, Arizona, Intending to become a restaurant owner, he took note of the huge volume of business done at a prominent hotel and café. He observed that the droves of tourists stopped to read a sign in front of the place, smiled, and went in. Without being able to understand the sign, he copied. it on a piece of paper and went on. In six weeks he had accumulated a trifle over ten thousand dollars by shining shoes and selling penny papers, and he set out to establish his restau- rant. He found his opportunity in Port- land, Oregon. He opened his res- taurant and placed over it a huge sign bearing the inscription which he had copied in Yuma, Arizona. In two weeks he was broke! The sign had read: Free Boarp Every Day tHE SuN Does Nor Sune! Tue girl who has spent all her time collecting hearts usually gets a husband who spends all his collecting clubs. LIFE - Put It in the Form of Emotion We are absolutely without emotion; cold, like granite, unflinching, the Strong Profile Type. We do impossi- ble things, like running our fingernail over a piece of slate to hear the squeak, We handle caterpillars, just to show our fortitude. We shave in Pullmans, 633 But—whenever we go to the theatre now something seems to get in our eye at the climax of the emotional scene, and when we rub it people think we're moved by the play. We're not, but we can't make them believe it. Our com- panion nods understandingly and says that she knows, of course, Imagination will get us all sometime if we're Emo- tional, though it is a little difficult for us to admit it. As a result, the next time our nose itches we bear it in silent torment until the crisis on the stage is over and we can relax com- fortably without being suspected. In fact, it is our theory that the management hires some one to sit in the balcony and blow dust or Itching Powder in the air during a tragedy, so that the audience will have to wipe their eyes or choke and gulp. We think this hypothesis is entirely within reason, for one can never tell to what ends a manager will go to put a play across; we heard once that a certain theatre ac- tually hired a man to sit in the audience and applaud, and not a person suspected him till ‘way toward the end of the third act.
