Thin Men and Women
Hera's a Safe B»sy Way to Gain 10 to
30 Lbs. of Solid, Healthy,
Permanent Fleet
Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say,
"I can't understand why I do not get
fat. I eat plenty of good, nourishing
foot!." The reason is just this: Yon
cannot get fat, no matter how much
vou eat. unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat making elements of
your food instead of passing them out
through the body as waste.
What is needed is a means of gently
urging the assimilative functions of the
stomach and intestines to 'absorb the
oils and tats aud hand them over to the
blood, where they may reach the
starved, shrunken, run down tissues and
build them up. The thin persons body
is like a dry sponge —eager and hungry
for the fatty materials of which it is
being deprived by the failure of the
alimentarv canal to take them from the
food. The best way to overcome this
sinful waste of flesh building elements
aud to stop the leakage of fats is to use
Sargol. the recently discovered regen
erative force that is recommended so
highly by physicians here and abroad.
Take a little Sargol tablet with every
meal and notice how quickly your
cheeks till out and rolls of firm, healthy
flesh are deposited over your bodv, cov
ering each boßv angle and projecting
point. G. A. Gorgas and other good
druggists have Sargol, or can get it
from lhsir wholesaler, and will refund
vour money if you are not satisfied with
"the gain in weight it produces as stated
on the guarantee in £aeh package. It
is inexpensive, easy to jake and highly
efficient.
Caution:—While Sargol has produced
remarkable results in overcoming nerv
ous dyspepsia and geueral stomach
troubles, it should not be taken unless
you are willing to gain ten pounds ofr
more, for it is a wonderful flesh-builder.

BRONCHIAL COUGHS
When the bronchial tubes are af
fected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and sen
sible treatment The breath seems
shorter because of mucous obstruc
tions: usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the inflamma
tion often spreads to the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years—is Scott's Emul
sion. It drives out the cold, which
; is the root of the trouble, and checks
the cough by aiding the healing
process of the enfeebled membranes.
If you are troubled with bronchitis
j or know an afflicted friend, always re
member that Scott's Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble,

German War Pictures
Oermanv as an elaborate ticierrtift-*
machine, working uiyler a perfected
system against forc.v superior in num
ber, was portrayed both by word and
picture yesterday at the Majestic the
atre. The pii-taros will remain at that
playhouse this afternoon and evening.
Showing realistic life in the trench
es and on the battlefields, motion pic
tures, taken with permission of the
German general staff and war min
istry. are sh'ow-n. Conditions in that
eountrv since the war boian and the
effect which the' hostilities have had
upon her people is vividly portrayed.
Although the majority of the large
audience were German-Americans and
the motion pictures and addresses
principally of and for the German na
tion, the "spirit of the meetings are
American. In the motion pictures,
which portray vivid ami thrilling
scenes of the' movement of the troops
of the various armies, their operations
aifl the results, are shown the latest
films which have been received from
flie war zone. To a certain extent the
developments in the eastern theatre of
war prove newer and more interesting.
It is said bhat four operators were
killed in taking the pictures.—Adv.*
"II Trovatore"
"It is, indeed, gratifying," said
Joseph F. Sheehau, the famous tenor,
who is coming to the Majestic theatre,
to-morrow, matinee and night, with
the Boston English Opera Company,
for two performances of the world's
favorite opera "II Trovatore," "to
see that gradually the public are be
ginning to realize that grand opera
does not intended only
for the musician. Given iu English, as
we do it, 'II Trovatore' is an interest
ing in story and plot as any drama,
ever staged, and it would be hard to
recall any drama ever given in this
country with such a cast of stars as
that which comprises 'The Boston Eng
lish Opera Company.' " —Adv.*
"Under Cover"
If a consistently maintained story,
holding the interest of the audience to
the final curtain, and withholding its
most tense scene until a few moments
'before that occurs, constitutes a good
play, then "Under Cover" is assured
ly one. For manr months past "Un
der Cover" has Weu supplying that
sort of entertainment to large audi
ences in New York and Chicago, *nd
these audiences went forth niightljr to
send new ones. Belwyn & Company un
der whose direction "Within the
Law" was produced, are also the pro
ducers of this latest success which will
come to the Majestic, WeAesday, mat
inee and night "Under Cover" is es
sentially a detective story, but no in
tricately are the strands of - the plot
woven that it seems a play of real
life. Roi Cooper Metgrue wrote the
play and with it achieved bis first
great success. Selwvn k Company will
send an excellent company of players
to this eitv and each character will be
played for its full value.—Adv.*
"When I>rearns Come True"
"When Dreams Come True," which
will be presented at the Majestic next
Thursday afternoon and evening, is a
combination of melodrama, farce,
music anil dancing.
There are three acts hi "When
1 l>reams Come True,'' and in these four
complete sets of scenery are shown.
! The ball room scene in the final act is
! painted on silk instead of canvas. This

The book, of "When Dreams Come
True" is by Philip Hartholomae au
thor of "Over Night" and "Little
Miss Brown.' and the music is by
(Silvio Hein the composer of many of

Helen Grayce and her company in a
splendid I'na Clayton sketch called
"Bill 9 99." also Comfort and King,
the well known minstrel men, in a
comedy called "The Divoreous" that
is a scream from start to fini>h. What
promises to be the season's most sen
sational headlftier is the gigantic
musical comedy featuring Lou Anger
and Sophve Barnard and a company of
fifteen, that is slated to appear at the
Orpheum next week.
This big production is plavinig for
its initial engagement at Seranton and
owing to the fact that it is wiping out
all attendance records there, Manager
Hopkins received a teiegram from Wil
mer & Vincent yesterday which read
as follows: "Prepare for sensational
week's business next week. Seranton
reports indicate 'Safety First,' with
Sophye Barnard and Lou Anger to be
the biggest vaudeville production ever
presented. Neil Wavburns' staging of
this act has proven his greatest
achievement." The production is
catchy, interesting, elaborately staiged
in three scenes, and calls in the most
notable cast ever launched in a vaude
ville. Both IJOU Anger and Miss Bar
ngrd rank with the brightest lights in
vaudeville, and both of them are great
favorites with Orpheum goers. —

At the Colonial
New things vaudeviilian came to the
Colonial theatre yesterday and tucked
in with the Keith bits is the Sig Franz
Troupe of dippy cyclists, one of the
funniest acts that travels the Keith
circuit. The act created a laughing
sensation at the Orpheum some time
ago. and in fact it has appeared in all
the leading vaudeville theatres in
metropolitan cities. Yesterday's audi
ences at the Busy Corner just laughed
themselves tired as these clever fun
sters performed on all sorts of ve
hicles. Three clover vaudeville novel
ties are grouped on the same bill with
them. —Adv.*

COULD KNOT THE EQUATOR.
Unexpected Reply From Small Boy
Upaeta Dignified School Inspector*
The class wns nt the moment en
gaged in geography. That Is to say,
, t about thirty small boys sat in n state
of litter boredom while a little man
stood up In front of a map and made
| thin remarks through a ragged mus-
I tacbe about unimportant facts.
In these circumstances the unexpeet- !
1 ed entrance of the inspector was al- ■
: most in the nature of a relief to the
i weary youngsters.
"Now, my little man," said the In
spector in that patronizing tone really
learned people always adopt when
speaking to children, "can you tell me
i whnt the equator Is?"
"Yes, sir." said Tommy Stiles, see
ing that he was being addressed. "It
Is an imaginary line drawn round the
world."
"Quite right, my little fellow. Now,
let us see whether you really under
stand what that menus. Could you,
do you think, tie a knot in the equa
| tor?"
"Yes, I conld. sir!"
| "Could you, indeed?" answered the
learned one in fine scorn. "And what
aort of a knot, now?"
