For perfect respiration two things are necessary chest capacity and breath control The average individual woman especially. uses but a limited portion of the lungs and upper chest in ordinary breathing. Whenever a little unusual physical effort makes de. mand for an extra breathing capacity, note how she pu1's and pants, almost to point of gdspiug. The reason for this is that the muscles of the lower chest, waist and abdomen have become well nigh arophied through neglect ,nd abuse. They are stif and unre- sponsive and have now to be coaXcd back to condition of activity and obedience.
 It Is quite as possible to educate these muscles so that they shall re spoud to our slightest demand as it is chat our hands are trained to do our bidding. Different teachers will advo cate different forms of breathing up- per chez. sida chest. lower chest and abnormal breathing but what we most want Is absolute control, such control of the muscles as shall enable us to make use of any desired form Of breathing at the word of command, for an forms have special values. Full up per chest breathing is used most but lower chest and abdominal breathing are very valuable in cases of nervous ness. indigestion. stomach and bowel f-oubIos

Especial. Judge Critz. of Clay
county, candidate for governor,
spoke to the largest audience
this evening ever assembled in
this county, in the interest of his
candidacy for governor. Rounds
of applause greeted him fre-
quently during the speech, indi-
eating that his hearers appre-
ciated his utterances attacking
Vardaman position on the
school question. Critz's friends
predict landslide for him in

was introduced and addressed
the citizens in behalf of his can
didacy. Mr.. Fox, among other
things, said that he was in the
race on his own merits, and not
on the dement's of either of his
opponents. He denounced the
statement that Referee Wilson,
or any other politician, was the
cause of his entering the race,
but that it was at the earnest
solicitation of the pulpit, the
bench and the pillow handle that
caused him to announce; that
Mr.. Critz had had no assurance
that he would not be in the race,
and that they had had no con-
versation in regard to same. In
regard to the race question, he
said that the education of the
negro could not be abandoned
unless the white schools were
closed; also that nothing threat
ems white supremacy more than
the destruction of the present
public school system. Mr.. Fox
returns to night to Washington
and will not begin an active cam

The Masonic Grand Lodge.

Many of the delegates from
the Columbus and Caledonia
lodges of Masonry are home
from the meeting of the Grand
bodies, which was held at Biloxi
last week. the delegates return
ing home late Saturday night
There are a mum Der of them who
are spending the week in New
Orleans enjoying the carnival,
and they will return this week.
From those who are at home it
is learned that the meeting on
the coast was a most delightful
one in every particular. The
prediction that Hon. Harry How
ard, Grand Master, would exert
himself for the entertainment
and pleasure of the delegates to
the Grand Lodge was more than
verified and every delegate has a
good word to say of his hospital
ity and kindness to them during
their stay in the growing Miss
issippi town.
The Grand Lodge conferred
two signal honors upon members
of the local fraternity. Col. H. Nj.
Waddell and Hon. T. B. Frank
lin. The former was appointed
Deputy Grand Master by Grand
Master E. n. Thomas, and this is
a compliment and recognition to
Col Waddell which is not only
deserved and merited but it is
thoroughly appreciated by all
Masons throughout this section.
Mr.. Franklin was reelected to
the position of Grand Treasurer,
a position he has filed accentably
for long number of years. The
Grand Lodge and other Grand
bodies meet next year in Green
vile, Miss.
The meeting at Biloxi was an
interesting one for a number of
reasons. 1t was the signal for
the gathering of the candidates
and they were there in force,
pressing their claims for the var
ious State Offices.
The Worshipful Master an
nounces the Entered Apprentice
degree tonight for the members
of Columbus Lodge No. 5, A. r.
