A Night Ride with Witches

THERE was a lull in the conversa-
 tion, and then the thin man who was afraid to go home at night after a certain hour said:
 q see by the papers that they be- lieve in witches down in West Vir- ginia." % '.-.~
 That's nothing abruptly declared the Missouri colonel; "so do I.'
 .tStraight?" said the man who lived at the club. Get out!' The thin man shivered and the others laughed.
 Straight" said the colonel, that's has right to believe in witches l have" u ...
 Did you ever see q witch? inter- rogated the little fat stock broker.
 Ibid I ever see witch?" replied the colonel, disdainfully. Dozens of them. That's not all; I've kept company with them.'
 Here, here!" broke in the clubman.
 'tWhy,'' continued the colonel, when I was lad on my daddy's farm witches were thick everywhere. They were in Une AOuBE d&aAAy CSSi AAsk Ac3 0S RSSi@A ly if the night was windy and dark, and sometimes they cut up high jinks. We boys often woke up on cold nights shivering and sneezing to find every last thread of the cover off on the floor. Many q time the witches ate every pie in the cupboard and all the cake and jelly. l remember once got pair of new trousers and was so proud couldn't stand still in them. Well, sir, I wore them one day, and when I took them off that night carefully hung them on the back of chair by my bed. When I went to put them on the next morning they were snagged and ripped. Awitch had worn them.
 .'The witches would ride the horses and cows and even the hogs. It was a common thing to get up in the morn ing and find the horses tired and hun gry and their tails muddy. We could tell when they'd been ridden from the witch stirrrsos in their mane. Ere ouently the cows would be so tired they couldn't give milk, and more than once was kept awake all night by the hogs squealing and trying to get away 7 k from the witches.
 "At last they got so bothersome I had to turn detective and make'a study of them. Once our cows stopped giv- ing milk. We turned them in the clover field and fed them bran and re- sorted to all known tricks to keep a milch COW in good humor, but not a drop could we get. They were be- | witched.
 tsOne day followed the cows to the pasture and it turned out just as expected. Directly an old woman came along, and as soon as saw her darted behind tree. She stopped in front of the cows and, taking out a piece of broken blue bottle glass, looked at them through it, all the time lmunhlipg +9 herself.

Methods of Physical Exercise for the Winter Months e< X X

utes more of working with the wand overhead, the arms fully extended and bending to the left and to the right, with the wand following the movement of the body, will round out the second days exercise with some healthful and invigorating use of waist and abdominal muscles. y.
 The third days programme may begin with mixture of the exercises taken on the previous days, but this part of the exercise should not ex- tend beyond ten minutes. Assuming the original position then, for tho new work, raise the wand until it passes over the head and lower tt back of your shoulders as far as you can let it go. Return to the first po- sition, and do this nine times more.
 For the fourth day you should have little more exercise, the whole not to take up more than Is minutes. 1 Two-thirds of the time may be oc- eupied with the exercises previously given, mixed to suit. your will, with possibly more atteAtien given to the abdominal ana waiss nfusc1e exer. else than te the others. For new work raise the waHd to the level Of the shoulders with the arms stretched out forward and squat sim ultaneously with the movement. Tn squatting it is not only natural but easy to bring the weight of the body on the toes. If you are in your i stocking feet or wear rubber-soIed shoes, there will be no danger of slipping. Five minutes of this will bring on more fatigue than any of the other exercises, for the reason that many of the muscles of the arms and legs and shoulders are giv- en their most exhaustive test.
 1 Tn addition to the judicious mix ture o1 the previous movements for the fifth day, for at least ten min utes, the exercise may include rais- ing the wand to the level of the shoulders with arms extended for ward and twisting the tbody to the left and to the right. This gives an other form of use to the muscles of I the waist and abdomen. After five minutes of this it would be we'll to return to the position with the wand raised overhead, and bend the body to the left and to the right, letting the wand follow the movement of the body.
 To get the exercise that track and field athletes find very beneficial during the time they are working ill the 'sgym,' the sixth day may be taken up with the following simple exercise: Raise the wand overhead and as it reaches it's height step back ward with the left foot. Bring the wand back to the original position and repeat with the right foot. Then alternate. Ten minutes of this will give the chest, shoulders and leg muscles plenty of good work.
 1 The next day the exerciser would do well to try the same exercise at least 20 times and then vaxx. ik hz
