How Fat Folks May Become Slim A Simple, Safe and Reliable Way That Calls for No Drastic Diet, or Tiresome Exercises To be excessively fat is very mortify ing. People who are too stout are mighty sensitive on this subject. Style and fat folks are strangers. Therefore people who are carrying around a bur deli of unhealthy and unsightly fat will be glad to know that they can reduce their weight without starvation diet or tiresome exercises. If you have been getting too stout of late and want to reduce your weight in a simple, safe and reliable way, spend as much time as you can in the open air, practice deep breathing and get from any good druggist a box of oil of korein capsules; taking one after each meal aud one before retiring at night. Weigh j'ourself once a week so as to know just how fast you are losing weight, and don't leave off the treat ment or even skip a single dose until you are down to normal. Oil of korein is absolutely harmless, is pleasant to take, helps digestion, costs little and is designed to reduce fatty accumulations in the system wherever located. Even a few days treatment should show a noticeable reduction in weight, the flesh should become firm, the skin smooth and the general health im proved. In fact your footsteps should even become lighter, your work seem easier and a lighter and more buoyant feeling take possession of your whole being. Every person who is ren or fifteen pounds over normal weight should give this treatment a trial. You will prob ably find it is just what vou need.—- Adv. I'. 0.

D.S JAKES STUDY OF CLOTH INDUSTRIES OF NEW YORK Statistics Compiled By Government Show Wide Range in Number of Employes and Wages at Different Periods of the Year Washington, D. C., April 6.—Bul letin No. 147, just issued by the Bu reau of Labor Statistics of the U. S. Department of Labor, is devoted to a study of employment conditions in the cloak, suit and skirt industry, and the effect of those conditions upon the an | nuu] earnings of the workers. This ! study was undertaken jointly by the | Clojk, Suit and Skirt Manufacturers' ! Protective Association of New York j City, representing the employers and : the Joint Board of Cloak Makers' | Unions of Greater New York and the ; International Ladies' Garment Work ; ers' Union representing the employes, I it was made under the immediate su ; pervision of the board of arbitration I established by the protocol agreement of September i 2, 1910. The .special purpose of the study was to secure ac- I curate information in regard to earn j ings and amount of employment in the j industry in New York City, which the j board required in order to act upon I the questions brought before it. The bulletin is divided into two parts, the first dealing with season al fluctuations of employment iu the industry, as shown by pay rolls of es tablishments in New Vork City anil ; Boston; the other comprising a study of occupations in the industry and the presentation of plans for the ap prenticeship of cutters aud the educa tion of workers. l'ay roll data for all productive labor is seventy-five shops in New York City show two busy seasons; one lasting fourteen weeks, from the end of July until the end of October; and one twelve weeks from the end of January until the middle of April. During' the busiest week (the last week in February the total amount paid to employes was almost four times as large as that paid during the dullest week (the second week in December). Data for week workers in twenty-one occupations in ninety New York shops show similar busy and dull seasons, the total paid them being al most three times as igreat in the max imum as in the minimum week. Exact conclusions as to the propor tion of workers permanently employed could not be arrived at, but it was found to be small. Individual sched ules covering sixteen occupations in Now York City showed a total of 4,858 employes on the pay rolls at some time during the year. Of these only 1,952 were at work during the week of greatest employment and this may be considered as the maximum number needed to meet all the de mands of the work for the whole year. Only S6O employes were employed permanently, that is, forty weeks or over. The small number permanently em ployed, as compared with the highest number needed during any week and with the much larger number on the pay roll at some time during the year, indicates that a considerable propor tion of the employes do not receive from the industry an adequate amount during the year for their support. In the case of cutters, it was found that the "highest average annual earnings that could be hoped for, namely, those based on the maximum number em ployed during any week and the total annual amount paid for wages as shown by the pay roll, would be $837, while a comparison of the annual pay roll with the total number actually employed at some time during the year indicates average actual earnings of only $415.

FLAGS TORN INTO STRIPS BEFORE HMSI/S FULL Petrograd, April 6. —A remarkable feature of the surrender of Perinys! was the fact that not a single Austrian flag was captured, says the '' Russky Slo vo." The secret of tlveir disappearance was discovered, this newspaper says further, through the confession of Slav war prisoners who arrived at Kiev. The said night before the sur render of the fortress all the Hags were torn into strips. These strips were numbered and distribute*] among in dividuals who hid them in the linings of their coats and caps. They were required to take an oath to restore them upon their release from captivity, so that the flags might be reconstruct ed, thus giving the regifnents the right to a further corporate existence. A search of the prisoners revealed many such fragments of flags. In the handle of a bag belonging to General Thomaschi a flag was found intact. All other insignia and regimental memen toes were destroyed before the capitu lation.
