Therefore the Natural
Question IS How to
BE Healthy.
If Outdoor Life Is I'm
possible Do the Next
Best Thing.
Bring Outdoors Inside
the House Despite
Difficulties.
BY MARIAN MARTINEAU.

There is no place in the busy world to-
day for the rare. pale heroine OF the old
fashioned novel Cynthia, who was so
delicate that she looked as though she
would drop In her tracks. is not as ad-
1nired as once she was. And Amanda
and Maria who were admired because
they were so slender that they almost
snapped in two. would be as out Of place
today among the vigorous maidens OF
the present generation as would the
skinny old Dodo birds be in bunch of
fat, up-to-date English robins
The girl who is admired in the present
civilization is the girl who is healthy.
How do keep my health?" queried

secret OF her rudy glow. why. keep

Isn't that an excellent wRy2' and with
a laugh she bounded away for an hour
out-of-doors.
How to Be Healthy.
The girl who wants to be very healthy
should live out OF doors as much as she
can. OF course this is not practicable IN
city life. But the girl who cannot live
out of doors can compensate for il By
living out OF doors as much as she can.

hours a day she can do the next best
thing. She can bring out Of doors in
side Of the house 10 her,
To bring out doors inside the house Is
not as difficult as IL sounds But there
are some things that must be sacrificed
The woman who brings out OF doors
inside the house must do so at some
expense. She must throw open the win
aoU-s and let the sunshine in TO fade
the carpets. She must roll 10 the win
dow shades She must open the house
front and back TO get a clear sweep o.
air and what is more. she must leave
them open all the time. The minute
YOU close the windows you drive the

she can not go out OF the house. must

Col. Benjamin Price died yester-

wxx 81 years Of age. The news Of
Mr.. Prices death will occasion much
surprise among his immediate friends-
There was no more familiar figure on
the streets than Mr.. Price. He was
tall and unassuning In his manners
and gentleman in every sense Of the
word. His illness dated back some
weeks and death was caused by heart
trouble. Col. Price was about the
streets until few days ago, when
his illness took a serious turn and he
expired yesterday afternoon. The

large interests which. afforded him
an income, and he was at leisure and
seemed to take the better part Of life
until his health began to fail him.
He was born in Northampton.
Stafforshire, England, and came with
his parents TO this country when
quite young. The family first set
tied In Pittston. His father was .
shrewd business man and bought
some coal interests in the vicinity of
Cork Lane, which were afterwards
conducted under the firm name of
Price 4 Bowkley. They ran coal to
the docks on Wharf street in the
early days Of PittstOn, taking the
coal out of n slope on the upper end
Of Railroad street. The latter section
is now built up with fine residences.
During the time Of the gold fever
in 1859 Mr.. Price with other persons
went to the gold fields, where he
prospcred. He returned again to
PittstOn in 1881 The last enterprise
with which Mr.. Price was connected
was cattle ranch I'm Colorado which
he and Edward Bowkley conducted
successfully for several years. De-
ceased had made his home in Pitts
ton for the past year. He was inter-
ested In the Price 4 Bowkley block,
which Is occupied by the Union Saw
ings Trust Co. and 2. A. Burke. He
was also stakeholder In the new
Broad Street theatre. His demise
will be regretted by large circle Of
friends. The only surviving relative
is = brother, Abraham Price Of
Wilkes Barre. The funeral an
nOuncement will be made later.
