MAY IRWIN WANTS
TO FLY. BUT -
SHE IS TOO HEAVY
In Order to Learn She Has
‘Planned to Reduce Her
Weight—New Way.
Max Irwin, comedienne, fancy farmer,
sportswoman and famous shot, is for the
first time in her life dissatisfied with her
bulk. Miss Irwin has always prided her
self on the fact that she has been supe
rior to her weight. It has been the butt
of her jokes, the plot of her comedies and
the inspiration of her song writers. She
has rejoiced in it because it was typical
of May Irwin-—the only comedienne not
afraid of her corset-maker. Now it is
all changed and May Irwin reads the fat
reducing ads. She practices banting, she
studies diets and refuses to laugh that
big. hearty laugh of hers, because, for
sooth. laughter makes adipose.
So far all her efforts have been tn vain,
and she admits that she is ashamed to
look a scale in the fare The secret is
that Miss Irwin has the aviating bug. It
has hit her so hard that she is willing to
forego almost anything for the sake of
ridding herself of the all too solid flesh
♦ha’ makes her efforts at aviation impos
sible She has written tn friends tn Den
ver to call on Marjorie Hamilton, the fa
mous ‘Fat Vanishes a Found a Day
specialist, and offers Miss Hamilton a
prize bonus If she ran rid Miss Irwin of
e good, big slice of her surplus flesh “I
will give a prize to Miss Hamilton if she
shows me how tn take off fifty pdunds.”
Miss Irwin is said tn have written ’<• her
friend here. "and. as I have heard of the
marvelous reduct inns made by Miss Ham
ilton. I want you to see her and find out
if there is any hope for me. ’
Miss Hamilton, from her office. 2004-A.
in the Central Bank building. Denver.
Colo., is ready to take up Miss Irwin’s
challenge. "1 can reduce Miss Irwin's
weight fifty or one hundred and fifty
pounds if she will use my treatment." de
clared the famous little Calendar Girl to
day. "I don't want any prize for it.
either 1 feel 1 owe Miss Irwin a great
deal I have enjoyed more good laughs
at her comedy than I ever had in my
life anywhere else, and if she will allow
me to show her how to reduce I shall
consider it an honor to show tie.r just
h<»w I do it."

Lillian Russell 's Warning.
Sore Feet. Bad Health
Lillian RussPll is h physical wonder.
Now in mature years, but having pre
served the fresh beauty of youth In
the Chicago Tribune she says: “Care nf
the feet, hardest worked members of
Bthe body, is abso
lutely essential to
health Irritation
from sore feet oft
en causes serious
nervous disorders,
and nothing brings
face wrinkles
quicker." Here is
the best treat
ment known to
science for all foot
ailjnents. It works through the pores
and removes rhe cause: "Dissolve twd
tablespoonfuls of Caloride compound in
a basin of warm water Soak -the feet
in this for full fifteen minutes, gently
rubbing the sore parts." The effect is
magical All soreness disappears in
stantly. Corns and callouses can be
peeled right off. It gives instant relief
for buniens, aching and sweaty smelly
feet. An> druggist has Calocide in
stock or will quickly get it front his
wholesale house A twenty-five cent
box usually cures the worst feet, t’alo
cidr is not a patent medicine Don't
waste money on uncertain remedies.
Insist on getting w’hai you want front
the druggist.
