DON'T TELL YOUR
TROUBLES.

"If," said man of mature years,
II was going to give word oi advice
to a young man, one Of the things that
I should say to him would would be
this: Don't be sick. That is, don't
be an ailing man, not feeling well, and
all that sort of thing. To tell how
bad we feel does not, as rule, awaken
sympathy. Asa matter of fact-and
it's all right so, too-we don't cotton
much to a man that wants or expects
to be coddIed all the time; we like bet
ter the chap made of sterner stuff, who
doesn't worry himself over his little
ills, nor worry other other people about
them.
This does not mean that a man
wants to say he is well, when really he
is sick That would be foolish, as it
would be for man to work in such
condition. But n,',oly likes to see a
man going around with woe-begone
expression on his countcnancn, and the
words I'm way off today on his lips,
and if this is his habit whenever he
isn't feeling just right, why, he thereby
just counts himself ont of it.
"Therc's q large stock Of sympathy
on han in tn w):. |, aal it's always
plentitullv offered where it Is really
needed, but there's mi ghty little of it
expended on people suffering from
snitil,s. The fact is the world isn't
drawn much toward men that are al
ways ailing, but it just hollcrs for JOY
over men who are fit and able.
"Moral: Don't make it point to
tell people how miserable you're feel
ing to day"
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1900-02-16
FOR FAT AND LEAN.

70 cover your scrawny neck with
a soft pink cushion of flesh, eat cereals
and sweets, exercise the neck muscles
by slowly moving the head in each di-
rection, and rub all the lanoline into
the pores you can.
To reduce yonr double chin, take
away your pillow at night, skip your
midday luncheon, and message the
throat with firm upward strokes fif-
teen minutes each day. 1t will take
months.
AS aids to flesh building potatoes
taken at each meal, especially when
milk and butter are added, can not be
rivaled Liquids are excellent flesh
formers.
| Stout persons should substitute toast
for fresh breaes, and even of that eat
as little as will suffice. Never drink
at meal time if you would grow thin
ner.
The girl with ugly hollows and deep
shadows around her collar-bone should
take the arm gymnastics. Outward
and upward, four times, then to either
side. Singing lessons have often
worked magic upon seemingly i'm
possible throat.
The ungraceful carriage of nine
tenths of the stout women adds about
10 pounds to their avoidupois in ap-
pearance. 1t seems very singular in
these days that any.respecting women
should throw out her abdomen, when,
by a slight forward poise, she might
keep it in line.
Cocoa butter is only degree less
iattening than German lanolina, and
many persons prefer it. For inceas-
ing the bust OF arms the best physi-
clans commend it highly. Olive oil is
good, also, but lanoline is the quickest
known fesh-forming application. Be-
fore using see that the pores are open;
else how could it benefit?
Let the | an girl who sits in judg-
ment upon her own physique take
courage. Sho can have all the candy,
creams, sweets and good things she
wants, and, if she will, acquire round
ed figure by ''reading up the lists Of
tlesh-building edibles.
Obesity is stubborn disease, and
needs heroic treatment, beginning from
within. Stopping certain foods alone
will never cure ''fat.' The liver and
the blood mus: be taught new work
ings. i little too much flesh is not
obesity, and is easily remedied.
Beverages containing lemon or lime
juice should be chosen by the stout
woman. The acidity is useful because
it allays thirst and reduces the con-
sumption of water Apollinars and
vichy are better still.
Tight lacing is bar to all known
physical efforts. The circulation is
cut off literally, and the flesh pushed
entirely out Of place. To exercise in
corset is foolhardy.

TO BE PREPARED

For war is the surest way for this ma
tion to maintain peace. That is the
opinion of the wisest statesmen. 1t is
equally true that to be prepared for
spring is the best way to avoid the pc
culiar dangers of the season. This a
lesson multitudes are learning, and at
this time, when the blood is sure to be
loaded with impurities and to be weak
and sluggish, the millions begin to
take Hoods Sarsaparilla, which puri-
fies, enrichcs and vitalzcs the blood,
expels all disease germs, creates a
good appetite, gives strength and en-
crgy and puts the whole system in a
healthy condition, preventing pneu-
monia, fevers, and other dangerous
diseases which are liable to attack q
weakened system.

doctor gathered her to his breast, and
they were quite hidden. From that
moment he quickly began to mend.
Folks called it a miracle; but the
love that tears down can always build
up again, and the superstructure thus
raised Is always of b,tter quality than
the original one.

Still growls the cannon like Gagged beast,
Still is the armament increased
How long, Lord how long!

To spare nor limb nor lfe IN need
H,w long, Lord, how long!

Scoring the households VIII .ch it rot>;
In secret places swell the sobs,
How long, Lord, how long!

Are daIk-skinned women dear to thee,
Writhing from battle bolts as we,
How long, o Lord, how long!
Our great hearts pondering long and late
How best to guide the helm of State,
Stagger beneath their burdens great,
H,w long, o Lord. how long!
And unclean human vultures fain
To gorge them on high honor slain,
Gloat overhead with scent of gam,
How long, o Lord, how long!

No right o 'er looked, no trust betrayed,
Ere long, . Lord, ere long!

1t incidentally drew from Judge
Farr a remark that should furnish

be widely published to the effect
that no teacher in the common
wealth of West Virginia has any
legal right to inhict corporal punish.

tiff informed the court that it was
the intention to press this view of
the case, Judge Farr at once replied :
"On that point | would rule against
you quicker than lightning" The

A BOOMERANG.

1t was rather rough on ex Sheriff
Shaw and ex-Editor White for the
Journal at the last moment to use
iatter's own guns on him to fire a
broad-side into Shaw that was loaded
and exploded once before. In 1908
when Shaw was running for the Leg
isiature, White was editing the Jour
nal and fighting him as hard as
Whetsell is now, and wrote a col
umn editorial headed "Spot Tn s
Man, ripping Leader" Shaw up
the back from coat tail to collar.
White says now that he did it at the
dictation of Farmer" Heermans
and the rest of the Ring, and it was
submitted to them and corrected
by them and cleansed by them.
Anyhow, they have had it stereo.
typed and keepit on file in the Tour
nal Office to "run it into" Leroy at
the most favorable opportunity.
This they did last week, in the ma
ture of "IIth hour circular. Z"
which the Journal so specially eau
ITO led its readers against. This was
done to Offset Whites work for
Shaw this time, as he has been
working as hard for him this time
as re ever did against him. The
Lenhart crowd took special pains to
explain this latter day antipathy of
Whites all over the county, in con.
nection with Whites resignation as
Postmaster Of Kingwood.
