Fat as a general rule comes from the failure of the digestive organs to do their work properly, it may come also from over-eating, in these cases -there is always some part of the food eaten which is not eliminated as it should be. but is made up in the form of fat and sent by the blood to various parts of the body. This accumulation continues constantly until within a comparatively short time, the heart becomes incased in a layer or coating of fat. The heart seems to be one of the first vital organs to become affected in this manner. The food, therefore, in cases of fat.

Is not properly assimilated that is. part, of the food is retained by the body which should not be retained, and part which should be r-tin1 thrnirn TK'ia does not always mean dyspepsia or Indi- gcsiiuu. iw may nave a very neaitny stomach and yet begin to grow fat, through no apparent cause. It is evident to anv one, then, that to try to starve away the fat is both ridiculous and dangerous, it may or may not have the desired effect, but what Is almost certain is that a starvation diet will give a shock to the whole system and wreck it. The victim then becomes a subject for the-sanitarium or becomes an invalid.

The same thing happens by trying to use anti-fats, remedies that positively stop digestion. something which is absurd and which sooner or later results In a hrcsl- rinam organ and consequent disease. Bright's MJiatrasv. Artnrius. ijasirius and KeuritlS may quickly follow such treatments.

Tropical fruit is and has been known for years as a remarkable regulator of the system. By a persistent use of such a mixture, the body will assume an absolutely normal condition, being neither too thin nor too large, and preserving the balance of all the organs, making the fortunate man or woman who uses It. healthy and happy. This'is what Rengo does, it contains a tropical fruit mixture which has this faculty of perfectly assimilating food taken into the body. That is the secret.

Tanner, formerly pastor of the North Topeka Baptist church, but now minister of the Melrose Baptist church at Oakland, has been elected president of an organization to push the fight against graft and vice in Frisco and Oakland. The Associated Good Government league is the name of the organization and its field covers all of the bay counties. Ths organization has been perfected by Rev. Mr. Tanner and he declares that It is not alone to'suppress saloons, "but also to urge upon ail citizens of the place the necessity of activity in securing the best possible government for -the districts outside of the incorporated cities.

In a recent letter to Superintendent John R. Carter. Rev. Mr. Tanner said: "It is the purpose of the organization to work for clean politics, the square deal and against ring- rule and every member pledges himself not to support at the primaries and.

election any man, (regardless of the voters' affiliation) who has not a clean record. and who will not pledge himself to be true the; best interests of his constituents rather than fattening upon the spoils of office. "The movement has passed out of a church affair and is now- a citizens organization. The committee is authorized to confer with other law and order organizations in the county and to arrange for an affiliation. The greatest enthusiasm and determination have been shown In the movement which will sweep Alameda county and drive out corruption, vice and graft.

"A demand a reasonable demand and not a pleading, excusing, complimenting petition will be made, upon public officials to be clean in office and do their duty, or else take the conseauences at the polls and elsewhere. A large number of the very best citizens are mem bers and I expect the membership to Increase by leaps and bounds." Rev. Mr. Tanner was for two years the pastor of the North Topeka Baptist church. He left this city last July to take up his new duties at Oakland, Cal.

He is a product of Ottawa university and after his graduation from the Newton Theological seminary at Boston. he took up his first pastorate in this city. Rev. Mr. Tanner was born at Erie.

and his parents are still residents of that place. He is well known in the southern part of the state and has a wide circle of friends in this city through his church work.
