Take Care Of Yourself.

Think deliberately of the house you
live in-your body. Make up your mind
firmly not to abuse it. Eat nothing that
will hurt it. Wear nothing that distorts
or pains it. Do not overload it with
v~ictuals or drink or work. Give yourself
regular and abundant sleep. Keep your
body warmly clad. Do not take cold;
guard yourself against it. If you feel the
first symptoms, give yourself heroic
treatment. Get into a fiue glow of heat
by exercise, This is the only body you
will have in this world. Study deeply
and diligently the structure of it, the
laws that govern it, the pains and pen
atty that will surely follow a violation of
every law of life and health.-MedicaE
Reporter.

DEAR SIR: | helped save the country
in 1896 and am anxious to keep it saved
but am now a statesman out of a job
and without visible means of support.
Unfortunately am too heavy for light
work and too light for heavy work, and
unless you hit the civil service a swipe in
the solar plexus and come 70 my relief l
shall perish.
| am in many respects especially enti-
tied to recognition by your Administra-
ton. I was born several years ago while
quite young, read law a part of a while,
and have practiced occasionally. l am
now the only surviving private of the
Confederate Army. Since our flag went
down in gloom at Appomattox | have
suffered constantly. l have never been
married, but have had yellow fever,
have been drowned, burned alive, blown
up at sea, swallowed by a shark, and
served as Republican County Chairman
during the campaign of 1896.
If yon will call at my office | will con
fer with you on the problems confronting
your Administration, or | am willing to
correspond with you regularly. Always
inclose stamp for reply. If you need me
at Washington send ticket, ALL VIII
