The majority of weak, fiabbs hearts,
are weak and flabby because every
other muscle in the body is weak and
flabby, and this general weakness and
fabbiness is due to want of vigorous
use. Exercise of the legs and back and
arms gives additional and much needed
exercise to the heart, and the heart
grows strong by vigorous exercise just
40 every other muscular organ does,
for the heart is muscle. If a man has
no organic disease Of the heart, no en-
largement and no functional disorder,
plenty Of brisk walking, with occa.
sional running, will o o dispel his
breathlessness and heart weakness,
other things being equal. The mus
cular inactivity Of the modern town
man is the parent Of more i'll health
than any other single cause whatever.

JUST HOW IT is.
when you grasp the hand Of fortune,

When you grasp n mana OF fortune,
And lightly step along,
The hours glide on like the numbers
or a heart cheering song,
Your pathway is lined with faces
Where smiles and pleasure blend,
All the worln will offer service
Whom you don't need a friend.
You may snerr at fair discretion
When solid at the bank,
Sour rndeuess Is mere pleasantly,
And quite the thing for rank.
Men will trust upon your fayors,
And fawn and condescend,
Til you wonder at your klngship,
When you don't need a friend.
They viii shout your name in meeting.
And vote you into fame;
They will load your board with presents
or bric-a-brac and game;
They will strain themselves in showing
What kindness they intend,
When sunshine floods your atmosphere
And you don't need q friend.
But wait and note how comicai
This self same world can be,
When the sun throws not your shadow
And your hoes 60 TO sea.
You may have heard the cucumber
Has arctic chills TO lend
Well the world drops under zero
When you do need o friend.

The time made by the train haul-
ing Nellie Bly, from San Frauciso to
Chicago, is the best time ever made
by a train considering the distance
in the world. 1t most be remember
ed that good many miles of this
run was over mountains, through
canons and around such curves as
are only found in the mountain. The
train passed Lamar at eight o'clock
IN the morning and was at Kansas
City at ten minutes past six in the
evening which is ten minutes past
Eve by our time, defiance of five
hundred and eighteen miles. There
were hours when the train made over
a mule a minute. The Santa Fe road
certainly leads all others in capacity
for fast trains as the record of the
