Walking Erect.

To derive the greatest benefit from
walking, it is necessary to hold up the
head, keep the mouth closed, and move
briskly; it is in these circumstances
that walking is really good for us.
Walking erect not only adds to the
manliness of appearance, but it de-
velops the chest and promotes the gen
eral health in a high degree, because
the lungs. being relieved of the pres
sure made by leaning the head down
ward and bending the chest in, admit
the air fully and freely. If an effort
of the mind is made to throw the
shoulders back, a feeling of fatigue
and awkwardness is at first expert
enced, but this is soon forgotten. To
maintain an erect position, or to re-
cover it when lost, in a manne which
is at once natural, easy, and efficient, it
is only necessary to walk habitually
with the eyes fixed on an object ahead
a little higher than your own-the top
Of a mans hat, for eXample-or simply
keep the chin a little above a horizon
tai line. If either of these things is
done, the necessary, easy, and legiti-
mate effect is to relieve the chest from
pressure, the air gets in more easily,
develops it more fully, and permeates
the lungs more exclusively, causing a
more perfect publication Of the blood,
imparting greater health and more
cozor to the cheek.

Feeds Four People Well for &94.S2 a Yea,
A contributor to the March Ladies
Home Journal by publishing a copy of
his household accounts shows that it is
possible for a family of four persons
to live on 5000 a year. The family
comprises husband, wife and two chill
dren-1 and 8 years old-and the ag-
gregate cost of the edibles consumed
for the entire year is S94.82. OF course,
strict economy is necessary, but the

his salary of $500 as teacher he is able
to put $500 per year out at interest.

A Georgia colored man, Andrew Bon

gious enthusiasm in a substantial,
though unusual way. Donner is a sim
pie minded negro, filed to overlooking
with what his admiring wife terms ode
oil time religion" He resides with her
in College Park, a village a few miles
from Atlanta. His ambition for years
has been to build a church for the ben
enJ OF some CT his own race, the ma
terial used to be procured with his own
earnings, and no Workmen to assist
him in the rearing of the edifice. With
utter disregard of legal measures, An
drew selected two years ago a site for
the church of his dreams, which he eX-
poets to be a monument to his men,
DRY long after he has returned to dust.
The fact that he does not own the
ground has never disturbed him:
When far-sighted friends urged him
to wait until the ground could be
bought for the purpose he paid no heed
to the proposition, but kept to his
original purpose. Every spare pen
ny was spent by him for lumber and
nails. The work has necessarily been
slow, but now, after t~wenty-four
months of patient labor. Andrew
gazes with pride upon the building,
which is almost covered. The old man
is said to have sometimes denied his
family bread that he might ia money
for his pet project.

Dyspepsia is one Of the most prevalent of

II IN a more or less aggravated form. Few
diseases are more painful to the individual
or more far reaching in their effects on
human life and happiness. what the dys-
peptic needs is not local treatment, not
mere temporary stimulus. The real need
IS the tcning up of the entire system. For
tify the system and it will do its own fight
ing, and promptly eject any intrudinp
disease. The success of DIR. Ayers Sarsa.
parilla in curing Indigestion and dvspep-
STA is due to just this quality which it
possesses, of renewing the vital forces,
repairing the waste and loss of the BODY.
The ordinary treatment brings the food
down to the level of the weak stomach.
Or. Ayers Sarsaparilla puts strength into
the stomach, and brings itup TO the level of
the strong food fit for men. 1t does this
by strengthening the entire system. The
stomach cannot stay weak when all the
other organs are gaining strength. What
Dr, Ayers Sarsaparilia will do for dvspep-

trouble and subsequently into the Coun-

out his original sentence-six months
and was yesterday released from con-
finement.
He celebrated his return to liberty
by entering the house of a woman on
lower L street last evening and bund-

was also released from the County Jail

in leaving the place with their plunder
they were detected, and gave leg bail.
