REDUCE OR GAIN, I ITS EASY ON I PENNY SCALES t Plump Women Delighted to Lose Half Pound by Walking Only Few Feet. Two young women, both rather plump—one should hesitate before saying fat—stood on a downtown street corner arguing over their relative weights. “We’ll just go over here and settle the argument by weighing,” one said. She stood on the scales in front of the Gausepohl Company at 68 E. Washington. “There,’’ she said, “you see I only weigh 143%.” The other stepped on the scales; and weight, 14412. The heavier one became quite angry. “I’ll bet those old scales are wrong,” she said. “We’ll go to another one. Some argument ensued but they went to the scales in front of Marott’s. The first weighed 143. Elated she jumped off the scales yelling “oh’ I’ve lost a half pound.” The other weighed 144. “Let’s go some place else and lose some more,” she said. The Walkover Shoe Shop at 28 N. Pennsylvania St., offered the next opportunity. The weights were 144% and 145%. Downhearted the two girls walked over to the J. G. McCrory Company. The first one blithely stepped or. the scales—and came 6fl with a shriek. The card showed her weight 154. The Other refused to even touch the weight measure. The reporter decided to find out Just how much difference there was In other scales. Here's what they gave as his 'weight: In front of Royal theater, 142. In front cf Walkover Shoe 3tore 28 N. Pennsylvania, 144. In McCrory’s cn two scales, 145 and 153. . At Woolv/orth’s, 117. At Kresge’s, 146%. On Circle, near Cinderella Shop, 142%. 4 Guess for yourself his correct weight.
