FAT AND FORTY. Some H ints For Gtout People W h o W ish to Rcduco In Weight. Gef.lng fat means that there is, physically speaking, either an exces sive income or a deficient outgo, or both. From this the remedy would ap pear simple. Theoretically it would be either to limit the income of fat pro ducing foods or, once they are eaten, burn them up and get rid of them, or I'.otli, and presto the change Is made! In practice, however, after certain hab its of eating and living have been in dulged in for from thirty to forty years It is not always the cosiest thing in the world to form new habits. Only those with abundance of will power will suc ceed. Jellytish. with jellyfish back- ooncs and jellyfish determinations, will usually go on resembling more and more the proverbial jellyfish or sack of meal in figure. There is little hope for them. Edison's Incandescent. According to a friend. Thomas A. Edison is of tile opinion that it was anger that first turned him toward in venting tbe Incandescent light, reports tlie Newark News. How it happened Is related l>\ tbe friend, who says. ‘•'Hut wus. of course, in the early days, and Mr Edison was tJiou quite the imeuioi that one reads of-poor, euthi:sia“n., ncu-r sleeping, lie lived in u &m.ill bou^e. innocent of any tiling approaching a laboratory Scion titic devices were lu every room, and all the money went for experiments. Then > i ,• day came the crisis in the guise ol tlie colkctoi lor tlie gas com pany. lie bad been in tlie house of ten, but Edison, hardly heeding his calls, had waved him away, saying, ‘D o n ’t bother me!' . “On this last call the collector’s In- Btruetions were peremptory. He must turn off the gas. He did so, and that act started Edison on the road to the Incandescent light.\ For those who moan business, how ever, there is much hope. Much can be accomplished aud much more prevent ed by observing the following sugges tions: Drink three glasses of hot wa ter, to which has been added half a lemon, half an hour before eating breakfast For breakfast iudulge sparingly in baked apples, stewed prunes or similar fruit, omitting cereals, sugar and cream. Lot dinner consist very largely of salads and vegetables, sueli as let tuce, tomatoes, turnips, cabbage, greens, spinach, celery, etc. Let sup per consist largely of the same things, being careful to avoid cakes, sweets, mushes, bread, especially fresh bread, or soggy biscuits. Hard toasted gra ham wheat bread may be tolerated In small amounts. For the best results it is highly es sential that bulky rather than nourish ing foods aud laxative rather tlian con stipating foods be eaten. T!y..all means live, work and sleep In the open air Hum up all excess avoir dupois possible by breathing exercises, by walking and by exercising rather severely every day. Get up “a good sweat” every day. A '»id a sluggish, indolenl, indifferent life and disposi tion. Be active mentally and physical ly. In other words, keep busy.

The novel manner in which the fa mous prlma donna Patti on one occa sion chose her partners at a dance is related by Mr. Leslie Ward in Ula reminiscences. Mr. Ward went to a certain dance at Lancaster Gate. “Patti,” he says, “was sitting in the middle of the room looking angelic and Burrounded by a host of admiring men. \We were each given a miniature bugle. P a tti had one also, on which she sound ed a note, and whoever repeated it ex actly was to gain her as a partner in the dance. The men advanced In turn. Some blew too high and others too low u n til one and all gave up in disgust A t last my turn came. 1 was trem bling with eagerness and excitement and determined to dance with Patti or die.

Rochester’s automobile show will open on Monday evening, January 17th. It will be held in three big connecting buildings at Exposition Park and owing to the large number of exhibits of pleasure cars, commcrcial vehicles, motor cycles and accessories is expected to be the largest and best of any of the automobile shows held in this section of the state. A music committee composed of E. M. Ailing, F R. Lucscher, \V P. Kmpper and W E Davidson has arranged for an attractive scries of afternoon and evening concerts by the Park band of Rochester and Dossnnbach’s orchestras. Afternoon concerts will begin at two o’clock^ and evening conccrts at 7:30. Decorations of an unusually striking character have been planned by a com mittee composed of Frank W Peck, A. R. McKenney, H G Strong, Paul LeHardy, Geo J Bauer, G. W. Henner and Camp bell A Baird. All three of the big build- li gs which will house the exhibition will be dcrorntod in harmonious colors. T’nder the direction of Fred H Haak a handsome program will be issued as a prv- r.r,;r of tbe show It will be pre- m r !orl free to all visitors by Bickford Bros Co. (mnig to the fact that the Rochester bl.ii.% will be held m advancc of other phr.n* m this section of the state, the ncurst factory models exhibited at the hi\ New York automobile show will be sfci,i|cd direct to Rochester and shown for the first time in this part of the state. In spite of additional attractions planned for this year’s exhibition, no < hur !;.<• has been made in the admission fee l-very ticket holder will have an ..fT' ’•'unity to obtain free of charge and without any cost or obligation a six cvhnrVr, seven passenger, 1916 model, high grade car which has been selected by the show committee to be given away to the holder of the lucky ticket. The prize car is to be placed on exhi bition in a prominent section of one of the big exhibition halls and will remain there throughout the continuance of the show from tne tune of opening on Monday evening until the close on Saturday night. Rochester’s show bos earned a reputa tion as hemg one of the largest mam floor exhibitions of automobiles in the United States and will undoubtedly draw a lwrp number of tisitors from this tectioa.

Besides having clean, safe, convenient and economical light, aj-£' ways at command at the turn of the switch, those who live in wired1• ' houses have the use of electricity for many other purposes, as fo r r'} instance, ironing, sewing, washing, vacuum cleaning, light cookr ing and for operating the electric fan. > Ironing by electricity saves time and labor and does away with';;?; the heat and discomfort of the laundry stone. The electric washer reduces washingto the simple task of loading');’ and unloading the washer and feeding the garments into the wringer Vacuum cleaning, as every house-keeper knows, is the only sani tary and complete way of cleaning house.
