Why Fat Folks Stay Fat “The trouble with me, and I guess this applies to 99% of the men and women who are putting on weight, I didn't have the energy or “pep” to keep it off. Lost all interest in any healthy activity and just lazed around accumulating the old pounds. Start taking Kruschen Salts—tnat’s the common-sense way to reduce. This is what they do—they clean out the impurities in your blood’ by keeping the bowels, kidneys and liver in splendid working order—a vigor and tireless energy you'd most forgotten had existed returns. Asa result instead of planting yourself in an easy chair every free moment and letting flabby fat accumulate you feel an urge for activity that keeps you moving around doing the things you've always wanted to do and needed to do to keep you in good condition—you’ve got that "Kruschen feeling.” Be careful of the foods you eat —then watch the pounds slide off! Take one half teaspoonful of Kruschen Salts in a glass of hot or cold water tomorrow morning and every morning—and if they don't change your whole idea about reducing, go hack and get the small price you paid for them. Get an S3 cent bottle of Kruschen Salts—lasts •} weeks —at Hook’s Dependable Drug Stores or any progressive druggist anywhere in the world.—Advertisement.

Oct. 14.—Democratic party leaders today began putting into effect their announced plans to raise a $1,500,000 “victory fund” which will provide the sinews : of war for the 1932 advance on the White House. This is the first time Democrats have attempted advance prepara- ' tions for financing a presidential | I campaign. “The victory fund is about to be instituted at a time when the political position of the party almost is impregnable,” said John W. Davis, general chairman of the fund committee and presidential candidate in ■ I 1924. “It’s prospects of victory never were brighter. “Justifying the party’s optimism are the elections in and since 1930, decisive proof of the growing sentiment for administrative change, at once an indorsement and an indication of the success of our efforts for victory next year ” Announcement that the cam- ; paign would begin at an early date i was made from Democratic national committee headquarters here by Jouett Shouse, chairman of the Democratic national executive com- - mittee. A committee of 538 mem* i bers including practically every important leader in the party was ' j named. ' j The list included practically all r ! Democratic presidential candidates : and important aspirants in recent years, except William G, McAdoo . of California. > j It is proposed to apportion the ! $1,500,000 fund as follows: To wipe i out the 1928 campaign deficit, $400,- . 000; to provide for national party [ headquarters since 1928, and up to , the convention, $600,000; a “flying j star” fund for use in the 1932 camr paign just after the convention, 1 $500,000. John J. Raskob. chairman of the | Democratic national committee, ;! largely has financed national party headquarters since 1928 through his ‘; own funds and loans. John H. Fahey of Boston, publisher of the Worcester (Massj Post and former president of the United States Chamber of Commerce, is executive chairman of the ; "victory fund committee.” Dry Goods Store Looted Theft of a large amount of merchandise, value of which was not estimated, from the dry goods store of Harry Lorber, at 2756 Roosevelt avenue, was reported to police today, Burglars gained entrance by prying open the front door, police were told.

WISCONSIN PUIS LAWYER, 34, IN CONGRESS SEAI Progressive Republican, Backed by La Follettes, Wins Vacancy Election. % By United Press RACINE, Wis., Oct. 14.—0n the strength of almost complete returns in Wisconsin’s First congressional district election to fill a vacancy, Republicans today considered themselves as holding at least temporary control in the national house of representatives. With more than three-fourths of the votes tabulated unofficially, Thomas R. Amlie, a Republican, of Elkhorn, held a commanding lead over two opponents for the congressional seat left vacant by the death of Henry Allen Cooper. Amlie, a 34-year-old attorney who had the indorsement of the La Follette Progressive Republican organization, held a lead of about six thousand votes. On this basis, it was figured his total vote would ex-

ceed 15,00(1, with probably not more than 8,000 going to Otis J. Bouma, Socialist. George Herzog. Democrat, was not conceded a chance. The election here assumed unusual importance because eventually it might determine which political party will rule the next session of congress. Not counting Amlie as yet elected, the count today for the nation stood: Republicans. 214; Democrats, 214; FarmerLabor, 1. and vacancies. 6. The election of Amlie therefore gives the Republican party a theoretical majority of one. but this is not considered as meaning much, because there are five vacancies yet to be filled and there also is the possibility Amlie will follow the La Follettes’ custom in congress of voting more or less independently..
