Daughters of the Empire The Municipal Chapter will meet morrow, Saturday morning, at 11 at the Y.W.C.A. One of the matters to be discussed is the amount which can be contributed by the Saskatoon chapters toward purchasing the motor ambulance for hospital work in England, which the Provincial Chapter hopes can be sent as a gift from Saskatchewan.

THIN FOLKS GET FAT ON THREE MEALS A DAY Specialist Explains Why Food Does Not Always Produce Flesh and How Thin People Can Increase Weight Most people who are thin and under normal weight eat heartily but get no Increase in flesh, while plump, chunky folks of normal weight eat less than they do and keep stout all the time. The under-weight ones finally decide Nature intended them to be thin, that the amount or nature of their food has nothing to do with flesh-making and that nothing can make them fat. But this is not so. A stout, strong, robust body can come alone from food nourishment. Food is the source of all fat and if you are thin and underweight it is merely a certain indication that only a small portion of the flesh-making nourishment in your meals is reaching your blood and tissues.

The assimilative functions of your stomch and intestines are not working properly and the larger part of the food value is leaving your body as waste. To correct such a condition, to gain flesh, increase weight and get 100 per cent. value from your food, a single Sargol tablet taken at each meal will work wonders. Sargol is a scientific combination of six splendid assimilative agents. It promptly stops the leakage of fats and while aiding digestion, also separates every last particle of the fats, oils, sugars and starches of your food from the waste matter and prepares the former into rich.

ripe. flesh-producing nourishment which the blood readily absorbs and distributes throughout the body. Weight increase usually begins within a very days after Sargol is used with meals. In my opinion two ordinary hearty meals eaten with Sargol is equal in flesh-making value to six ordinary hearty meals eaten without it. Try it, you people who are thin, run down and underweight, and see if I'm not right.

You can buy Sargol from practically any druggist hereabouts and every package contains a positive guarantee of weight increase or money back. While also valuable as a treatment for nervous indigestion, it should not be used by people who do not wish to increase weight. "TRIAL BY JURY' COPIES There are still twenty copies of "Trial By Jury" not returned. It is asked that these be daily at for "The mailing office York. to- A Bedouin Love Song From the desert I come to thee, a stallion shod with fire, And the winds are left behind, In the speed of my desire.

Under thy window I stand And the midnight hears my cry, I love thee, I love thee, love but thee, With a love that shall not die, Till the sun grows cold, And the the stars leaves are of old, the Judgment Book unfold. Look from thy window and My passion and al my pain, see, lie on the sands below, And I faint in my disdain. Let the night-winds touch thy brow, With the heat of my burning sigh And melt to hear the vow Of a love that shall not die. I love thee, I love thee, I love but thee, With a love that shall not die, Till sun grows cold, And the stars are old, And the leaves of the Judgment Book unfold. "A Bedouin Love-Song," is the irresistible selection on the concert program to be rendered by the Orpheus Society on Tuesday and Weanesday night.

The words are by Bayard Taylor, and the music by Shelley. heard Mr. Stevenson's choristers render this very rich and exalting piece of music, an audience may well believe no co'nposition is too difficult for them to handle well. CRANE--PARK A quiet but very pretty wedding took place on April 28 at noon at 717 Avenue South, the home of James Crane, chief despatcher, C. N.

by which Miss daughter of Mr. and Mira, William Crane of Toronto, became bride of Mr. George I. Park of Prince Albert. The bride was sweet in a dress of liberty trimmed with shadow lace.

She carried bouquet of white carnations as she entered the room on the arm of her brother James W. Crane, who gave her away. The ceremony was performed by Rev. A. W.

Macintosh of St. Thomas' Church. The bride's niece, Miss Lila Crane, played the wedding march, and later Miss Ruth Boyd presided at the piano. Among the guests who sat down to the dainty were Rev. and Mrs.

Most successful was the piano recital held yesterday, in which a score of pupils were heard at the St. Johni Baker studios The program of selections from the master composers was brought to a brilliant conclusion by Debussy and Liszt played by (Lyall A. R. Gustin. Almost equally splendid was the performance of Poldini and Liszt numbers by Miss Agnes Chase.

Miss Ethel Fallon's number was a distinct pleasure, because of the perfection of technique with which she played; and a Chopin number played by Miss Marjorie WIlson deserves very special mention.

THEATRICAL NOTES AT THE EMPIRE Recent investigators have discovcred that the Island on which Robinson Crusoe was cast away and lived alone for twenty years was in the West Indian Seas and not in the Pacific Ocean as formerly asserted. It was in these waters that Columbus first set foot upon the new hemisphere on the Island of San Salvador in the Bahamas, now called Watling's Island. In the past year new adventures have taken place in these same waters.

The reference is to the adventures of J. Ernest Williamson his brother, George M. Williamson, one hundred feet under the surface of the water, in the West Indian Seas. A complete and enthralling record of the Williamsons' adventures are now showing at the Empire Theatre when the Universal Film Company presents the Williamson Submarine Pictures. This is the first and only film of its kind ever taken.

Thee Williamsons have "movies" a for monopoly they of have a patent on their own invention of the submerged photographic chamber and control the collapsible submarine tube invented and patented by their father. With it- usual energy and far-rightedness, the Universal Film Manufacturing Company has arranged to exploit their pictures. SOME." At the Empire Theatre all next week with the same cast as before, the Oliver Eckhardt players will be seen in "Going the clever five act comedy from the pen of the well known writer, Rex Beach. "Going Some" is staged in the heart of New Mexico at "Flying Heart Ranch," where Mr. J.

Wallingford Speed, an Eastern collegeman and "head yeller" is a guest. To get in strong: with the girl he loves he poses as an athlete exceptional ability, and to prove such volunteers to win back a trophy belonging to the cowpunchers of "Flying Heart Ranch," but taken from them in a running contest by neighboring and rival ranch. Speed knows full well that he cannot run, not even knowing how to start a race, let alone win one, but figures on sending for his friend, Culver Covington, who is a real athlete, to come out to the ranch and run the race in his place. To keep up the bluff until the last minute, he goes into training under his valet, Larry Glass, who has to vouch with his life that Speed will win the race. The cowpunchers, fearful of losing their beloved gramaphone, the prize at stake, compel Wallingford to follow every rule known to scientific training, even to cold baths and eating raw meat, that he may be in perfect condition for the great event.

At the last minute Covington is sent for. When he arrives Speed learns for the first time that he is completely disabled by a broken toe. The complications that follow are most amusing.

Just before Chaplin's turn, he thinks of the horse shoe and puts it into his glove. He takes the "bruiser" unaware and lands a blow with the horse shoe that puts him down and cut.

He then scheduled to fight the great champion. After a course of training, which Chaplin keeps the spectators in roars of laughter with his unique antics, he finally faces his opponent in the prize ring. Dog Smiles and Frowns. On the front seat, as one of the spectators. is his bulldog.

The animal watches the fight closely. It actually smiles whenever Chaplin scores knockdown. Its face 's fierce and gloomy when its master goes to the mat. After a long and hard battle, in which both men receive heavy punishment. the champion finally gets Chaplin against the ropes aud proceeds to punish him unmercifully.

Chaplin is about to take 1. count when the dog leaps from its sea. I dashes to the ring, grabs the champion by the seat of the trousers and pulls him away.
