How often this is true! How very many
times we hear of stubborn, chronic, long
lingering diseases-bad cases which num-

cure! The poor sufferer lives on in pain

AT Montauk the different attachments OF

on the crests or slopes of sandhills., In
the cool Of some evenings. just after the

How to Ride Gracefully

Bicycle riding for girls is sometimes
decried on account of the ungraceful posi-
ton which some. assume, while doubtless
not few are prevented from enjoying this
pleasant and healthful pastime from the
fear that they may become another "dread-
full example"
A girl whose grace in riding has been the
subject of frequent comment says that the
secret lies solely in the adjustment of the
saddle and the handle bars, many having
the saddle too low, giving greater action to
the knees than is desirable. The propelling
force should be secured largely by treading
on the pedals, and an upright position
should be assumed as nearly like that of
walking as possible. The handle bars
should be low, but not too low, as this is
sure TO throw the weight of the body too
much in front

Spanish Game Cocks Licked by an
American Bantam

When Admiral Sampson came back from
Puerto Rico he brought his boys three
Spanish game cocks that were said to be
great fighters and were kept from the rest
OF the chickens. The other morning,
though, a loud racket was heard in the
chiken yard, and on going out they found
the Spanish fighters had broken loose and
started to clean up things. They expected
to find all the other roosters dead, but in
stead little Americn bantam was standing
on one of the Spanish game cocks Growing
with all his might. The Spanish fighter
was dead, another one was found not far
away so badly hurt that it died the next
day, and the third was found in the top of
high tree, from which it could not be
coaxed down. This was the last Spanish
defeat.

DR.. W. P. Wilson, Director of the
Philadelphia Museums and Director
General of the National Export Expo
sition, received his early training
through his own efforts and in the com.
mon and higher schools Of Michigan.
His taste for botany and natural his
tory was considerably fostered by q
course Of study in the Agricultural
College of Michigan. At a later date
he received degree from Harvard
University, where he was instructor In
botany for several years.
He was born In Oxford, Oakland
County, in the northern part of Michi-
gan, which was then practically a will
derness of forest. The nearest neigh.
bors were tribes Of Indians. His early
life was spent in farming. At q later
date he entered large plant in the
West for manufacturing agricultural
implements and machinery.
In 1898 he conceived the idea of
founding a Commercial Museum with
the raw product exhibited by different
nations at the Woild's Fair, at Chicago.
He secured the authority of the city of
Philadelphia, and succeeded in having
donated to the proposed museum the
large collections exhibited by nearly
every country, especially the Spanish
American countries. DR.. Wilson is q
careful worker, and it is through bis
care and forethought largely that the
successful plan of organization OF the
Philadelphia Commercial Museum has
been carried out.
