Atlanta will be well represent ed among the thousands who will go there during the season. Already many have been booked, and Harry L. Dunn, booking agent, will arrive in Atlanta today to continue the work. The Oceanic will be formally opened June 1, and its season will last until November 1. Many new features will a.aik it.

FAT MAN REDUCES MORE TUAN 100 POUNDS Without Drugs, Exercise or Starving—Tells How He Did It. “Philadelphia’s Champion Fat Man.” as he was called by most of his friends, has been giving those same friends the jolt of their lives. While all were deeply sorry for the enormously fat semi-invalid whose fat was such a burden he could hardly walk, yet they were wont sometimes to call him a “patent medicine fiend” on ac count of his well-known penchant for spending his money on various advertised “fat reducers" and quack nostrums which always seemed to increase rather than di minish his size. Finally he lost pa lienee with all these and declared that he was through with such methods forever and was going to try one he bad discovered himself, largely by accident. Not long after, his friends were startled 10 behold a most remarkable change in his appearance. His fat began to vanish at an incredible rate, and those who knew him could hardly credit the evidence of their own senses when, only a few weeks from the time he began to dwindle away at the rate of a pound a day. he an nounced that he had lost 100 pounds, could stop reducing any time he wanted to and proposed to reduce a few more pounds just so he could say his weight was ex actly the right weight for his height Dr. F. Turner, the man referred to above, was seen recently and said that since he reached normal weight of 150 pounds (from 254) his fat has shown not the slightest tendency to return. He ex plained in detail the method he used, and while space will not permit a fill’ de scription of ii here, announcement is made that all of the stout readers of the Magazine of Mysteries can obtain the information free of cost. The method is highly scientific and requires the use of no drugs, medicines, exercises, starva tion diets, apparatus, purging, sweating or anything weakening in any way. it could not possibly harm even a child or an invalid. Not content with reducing his own weight Dr. 'Turner had several Atlanta Elks to See Western Wonders On Trip to Convention The Atlanta lodge of Elks will send a delegation to the national convention in Portland, Oreg., on a special train from New York, with Brooklyn lodge No. 22. No definite date for leaving Atlanta has yet been decided on, but the one most likely to be selected is July 3. I he delegation will arrive in Portland on July 8. The business of the reunion will probably be concluded by July 12 anil the party will then engage in a series of eight-seeing tours, to include a fiveday stay at Yellowstone Park, a trip to the Grand Canyon of Arizona. Colorado Springs. Pikes Peak. Cripple creek, the Garden of the Gods and other, places of interest. The return trip will embrace some of the largest cities of tn-- West. The At lanta party will probably number about 25. Members desiring to take the trip must send in their applications by June 1. of his friends try the method, some of these triends being in far distant cities After using the method Mr. .1. \V. Moore at Monticello. Minn., wrote "I have lost I'o pounds. Pains around the heart are gone." Mr. 11. E. Purdell of Gloversville, X. Y.. wrote "My weight for 21 days was reduced 22 pounds." Mrs. Elizabeth New kirk. Mt. Carmel. 111., wrote "Lost 15 pounds in 9 days.” Mr. Thomas Lock wrote "I have lost 36 pounds and can lace my shoes now, something I have not done in ten years.” In all. more than 100 persons have al ready written Dr. Turner of their suc cess in losing from 20 io HO pounds of fat by using this recently discovered method of weight reduction. Not a sin gle one of them failed to obtain highly satisfactory results. Dr. Turner feels that if he can say not one hundred wrote him but five hundred or even a thousand have found his method successful, then no one will doubt his word when he says it is practically infallible and never fails. t'n til such time Dr. Turner, whose present address Is Suite 603 N Clark Building. Syr acuse. N Y.. announces hfs Intention to send full particulars absolutely free to any of our stout readers who are suffi ciently interested to write him at above address and simply enclose 2-cent stamp for reply. The more fat you are the more welcome your letter will be to Dr. Tur ner. He is particularly anxious to have a man or woman weighing from 400 to 500 pounds reduce to normal by using his method, such reduction to be effected by Dr. Turner entirely without expense to the stout person in question. Dr. Turner has agreed to hold tills offer open to out readers only during the next ten days, when it will be withdrawn if lie secures all the replies he desires. So if you desire the free information offered you are urged to write at once, before it is too late to obtain It free of cost, and yon can then learn how to begin immediate reduction of your weight.
