Beads 6t perspiration persist in popping out on your face, and your collar is in a sad state of collapse. Some heartless friend persists in reading aloud the cheerful items on the front page of the paper concerning the numerous deaths from heat prostration all 'over the country, and, turning over to the next page, discourses on the grave danger of a water famine. ' Outside the green, the pretty green grass that was springing up so verdently a few weeks ago, is looking dry and lifeless and wilted. You drink another glass of ice-water, mop your brow again, and drawn as though by a magnet you turn again to the ther- 1 - mMm MR if ' 4HM Most of the so-called fat reducing preparations contain either thyroid or laxati ves. Thyroid Is a potent sub stance which may bring about harm ful effects if taken without proper. supervision. lainarucs are sometimes soia as fat reducers on the principle that the diarrhea resulting from their use will abstract fluids from the body and thereby produce an appreciable loss of weight. The use of such weight reducing methods if carried on for any length of time would bring on very marked weakness and profound 1 disturbances in the body. btm another type of fat-reducing nostrums are sold, with instructions to the user for a bath with a soap In hot water. The perspiration produced by the hot bath and the exercise may cau.se the user to lose a pound or so of lluid. The tendency is for the weight to be regained Just as soon as the resulting thirst is appeased. Weight reduction is not safe ex cept under supervision. Diet and exercise are the only two dependable means known to medicine for the reduction of weight in nor mal cases of obesity. miM's LA GRANDE STORE Successors to N.K.WEST & CO.

Since the boyish form has come into such prominence there have ap peared on the market numerous so called fat reducers. Practically all of these remedies assert themselves harmless and ef fective, claim to achieve results with out diet or exercise. Yet practically all of them are ineffective and some are positively dangerous. The bulletin of the federal gov ernment well summarizes the condi tion by stating that no drug or mix ture of drugs at the present time known to the medical profession can be offered for the promiscuous use of the public in reducing weight with out at the same time introducing a large element of danger.
