Expanding the Chest.

Take = strong rope, and fasten it to beam
overhead to the lower cud Of the rope attach
stick three feet long, convenient to grasp
With the hands. The rope should be fastened
20 the centre of the stick, which should hang
sig or eight inches above the head. Let a
person grasp this stick with the hands two or
three feet apart. and swing very moderately

connection of the arms with the body, with
the exception of the clavicle with the breast

the effect of this exercise is to elevate tho
Tibs and enlarge the chest; and, as Nature al

TnE NATIONAL CONVENTION.

The Democratic National Convention
met in st. Lonis to day for the pur-
pose Of nominating candidates for
President and for Vice President of
the United States. 1t is somewhat diff
ferent 10 organization from the Gin
einnati CehVentiou. It is composed
,of fewer members, as the Territories
having no voice in the Presidential
election, are not represented in the
convention. An exception is made in
the case of Colorado which may be-
come State tbfs sunlQer, as an Act
10 enable it to do has been passed by
The present Congress. The convention
consists OF 738 members. 1t votes are
cast by States, each State being en-
tiled to the same number OF votes as it
has Representatives and Senator's In
Congress. The whole number of Votes
is, therefore, limited TO 500. that being
the number Of Senators and HeLresen-
tatives III Congress, including Colo
RADIO, which is entitled to three votes.
1t frequently happens that State del
egations differ in their choice of candl-
dates and in such eases, unless the del
egation is equally divided, half votes
are cast for different candidates. In
1914, what is called the two thirds rule,
was adopted in the Democratic Ma
tional Convention, and has been
kept up since that time. Unless
it is changed in the present convention,
it viii require 246 votes to nominate
candidate. 1t is clai med by Tildeu's
friends that lie will receive that mum

PaECEPT AND Practice.

The House Of Representative cut
down the expenditures Of the Govern
ment, ia the appropriation bills, sew
eral millions of dollars. Tie Senate
refuses to concur in the bill reducing
the salaries OF officials, and there is "a
dead lock between the Houses. This
~ practical step toward reform and
economy, bat there is little prospect
Of its being successful The Cincin-
natl platform breaches economy, but
the representatives of the party tnat
framed it refuse to practice it. There
are few Democrats ia the Senate, who
sustain the action of the Republican
majority. The proposed reduction
does not in any way retard the
the wheels of Government, and the APP
preparation bills, as passed by the
House, are said to be amply sufficient
for ali practical purposes, but the Re-
publican Senate does not believe i'll re-
ducing the salaries of officials on the
eve Of a Presidential contest, when
money is so essential to success, aud
all are expected to contribute to cam

receive.

Central Pacific, support him so heartily.
