Beauty and Breathing.

Harpers Bazaar.
 Correct breathing Is the first art to cultivate in the pursuit of beauty, just as 1t is the first step toward improve ment in health. As a woman breathes. ao she Is; for the boise of the chest, is the keynote to the whole figure. When the chest is in proper position, the fine points of artistic wearing apparel and all the little frills of fashion are seen to best advantage. Even humble materials assume a certain elegance hitherto lIn- known. But if it is carried badly, the figure drops and falls into ugly angles. Nothing sets we'll; no garment seems right. It is always wrong to make the bone structure do most of the work in keeping the body upright The muscles should hold it In position. otherwise grace Is out of the question. and good health difficult. To breathe correctly, keep the chest up. out forward. as If pulled mp bv a button. Keep the chin. the lips. the chest on a line. Hold the shoulders nn a line with the hips. The observance of these directions will insure to golf skirts and rainy-daY costumes a real dignity and picturesque effect. Breathe upward and outward. as if about to fly, drawing :n tho air with slow. deep breaths. and letting it out gently. This conscious sleep breathing repeated ten or twenty times al intervals during the day tends to expand the chest permanently. tn give it classic boise and style. Repeated forty times. II is said to be cure for worry.

Many Indians Relish It on Thanks giving Bill or Fare.

LeSlie s weekly. -s
 In the Osage country the Thanksgiving feast consists principally of white dog meat, the Osages being very fond of this kind of dish. The Apaches of Arizona, the Sioux, of Dakota. aud the Cheyennes in Colorado. are also devotees of the dog meat, and feasts of this kind are com mon with them, especially on Thanks giving. The Indians learn of thA set date through their agent and a week or more is spent in making arrangements for the celebration.
 Few people really know how much money is spent on sthe wards of the gov ernment as pertains to their food and clothing In the United States today there are about 26s. 900 Indians. Of this number 42.250 draw rations regularly, while 12.60O more are provided for at vari- ous times when they are unable to work. On Thanksgiving day the whole number of reservation Indians ask for their share of food. The total cost of purchasing and distributing rations to the Indians last year reached the sum of $1, ,231, 900. It will be even more for the coming year. AS fast as the Indians are placed on in- dividual allotments and made citizens of the United States they cannot draw ra- tions. The Comanches and Kiowas were not allowed to draw rations this Thanks giving, but they were paid their annual fall grass money and purchased their own dinner.

Many reasons account for this. Washington IS unhke any O. the great canitals of the world.

 Tn these comments We have rather pointed out the faults of MT.

We Of the later generation. who have seen men of ordinary capacity and of doubtful vir- tue occupying the presidential omce: cannot easily comprehend how great man like Calhoun could esteem the place to be worth the struggles and anxieties of a lifetime: nor can those of phiiosophlc mind at all understand why profound intellect can fret itself away in the ef- fort to become intel!igihle to or in the reformation of a thoughtless and sordid society. Our type of a public man IS found in the first Duke Of Ormonoe. whom no position could ennoble and no misfortune could humble, and who aliks in prosperity and advsrsity calmly ana with dignity kept faith with his own fame But MT. Calhoun's epitaph might well be that which Seneca says of Deni- etrius. that "he was reserved by Provi- edence for the age he lived in. to show that he could no. reform the times, nor could the times corrupt bim."

 Mir S. M. Marshall, bookkeeper of the Atlanta (Ga.) Gas Light Co, was poisoned with Poison oak. He took Sulphur, Arsenic and various other drugs. and applied externally numerous lotions and salves with no benefit. At times the swelling and inflammation was so severe he was almost blind. For eight years the poison would break out every season. His condition was much improved after taking one bottle of S. s. &, and a few bottles cleared his blood of the poison, and all evidences of the disease disappeared.
 People are often poisoned without knowing when or how. Explain your case fully to our physicians, and they will cheerfully give such information and ad- vice as you require, without charge, and we will send at the same time an interest ing book on Blood and Skin Diseases.
