Effect of Sugars and ravs, The fatuous soul who takes a long walk to reduce and comes home with a fine appetite, or perhaps eats half a pound of candy en route, is putting on weight instead of taking it off.

B} 5 S ADDED TO ROLL OF HONOR Soldiers Reported “Missing in Action” Have Been Classed as “Pre- sumed Dead.” According to The Home Sector there are still between 250 and 300 members 6f the American front line army still unaccounted for. + In speaking of this war mystery of missing men the ex-soldier's magazine says: “Soldiers who go into battle are like men who go down-to the sea in ships. There are those who return and those who do not, those who live and those who die. And then there are those who dwell for years in a twilight zone of uncertainty, neither life nor death. from which no word ever comes back to the shores called home. “A few weeks ago the mewspapers of the country announced that there were no more members of the A. E. F. ‘missing in action.’ The only redson ! they are not missing in action is that they have been ‘presumed dead.’ “There are still between 250 and 300 members of the American front line army unaccounted for, who, carried ‘on the rolls for months and months as missing In action, seem to havd dis- appeared from the battle fleld as .if by the wave of a magician’s wand, leaving neither the ripple off a rumor behind them, the testimony of an eye, nor a footprint in all the paths of the: world, “They are the irreducible minimum of the 50,000 lost, strayed or stolen men that the A. E. F. carried on the morning of Nov. 12, 1918, as missing in action. To guard against Injustice to their relatives or friends, the war department has ordered that from, henceforth they be carried as ‘pre- sumed dead instead of ‘missing in ac- tlon,’ in order that their war risk in- surance benefits may be paid. That in brief explains why the American army as it stands demobilized today techri- cally has no ‘missing in action.’” SLEPT AMONG THE DEPARTED Travelers in Auto .Unknowingly Se- lected Peculiar Place in Which to Pass the Night. They lived in Milwaukee and “fiiv- vered” through to Indianapolis with their two children. They left home early in the morning, arriving at Gary just before dark. Anxious to reach their destination as soon as possible, they left Gary after getting & supply of gasoline. A few miles out of Gary a heavy rainstorm checked their progress and shrouded the countryside in pitch darkness. Losing their way they de- cided to turn in at the first gate and spend the rest of the night in the automobile, rather than take chances of travellng by night in the darkness on unknown roads. A few miles further on the outline of a tree just beyond an open gate was seen, and the gpto was guided beneath. The couple &nd children slept i§ cramped quarters in the auto and awakened at daybreak next morning. Imagine their horror when they dis- covered they had slept all night in their auto in a cemetery.—Indianapo- lis News. Prize-Fighter Congressman, The report that Carpentier, the prize fighter, Is ambitious to become a mem- ber of the French parliament, recalls the election of John Morrissey to con- gress on November 5, 1867, from the “Bloody Sixth” ward of New York city, says the Springfield Republican. Merrissey’s famous fight, in which he defeated Heenan, took place October 29, 1858, in the no-man’s land adjoin- ing Boston Corners in Berkshire coun- ty, afterward conceded to New York by Massachusetts. The pugilist had a long record of indictments for assault and burglary and had served nine months in the penitentiary for nine breaches of the peace. He served his district in congress satisfactorily erough to be re-elected. e ————————————————————— | Daily Fashion Hint A BOLD GUESS. “The man who pretended he want- ed alcohol for his radiator made himself terribly sick by drinking it,” said Mr. Chuggins, reproachfully. “What’s the matter with him?” inquired the garage proprietor. “I d’no esactly. Mebbe you’d call it auto-intoxication.” WINE MAKING CONTINUED. Although the wine makers in the champagne region of France were all in the army during the war, the women carried on the work so suc- cessfully that in 1915 10,000,000 bottles were exported and in 1917 20,000,900, . Snakes’ Changes of Skin. It appears that snakes change thelr skins several times a year before reach- ing the adult staté® The main reason why snakes cast their skins is to pro- vide for increased growth. The skin of a snake does not grow with the growth of the body, as is the case with warm blooded creatufes. So when it begins to get too tight it is discarded. _NODMA g TALM_ADGII:; T%N'gulfs?' ‘ 3 DAYS Begining TOMORROW Matinee 2:30 TONIGHT 'LAST TIMES _ Back of it all were a wrecked ambition and a pawn-broker with a heart.
