be the plan of nature that women
should suffer so severely. Menstrual

something is wrong which should be
set right or it will lead to a serious de-

stuck like a burr. Riding was an ardent
pastime with him many years before
he had to follow hard-riding Presi
dent.
He picked up boxing, and became
uncommonly handy with the gloves,
until prizes for ameteur sparring
matches were among his athletic lau-
rels. The deep-chested, broadshould-
cred, compactly-muscled build Of him
was ready for the making of a good
all.round athlete, had Mr.. Cortelyou
cared to specialize in this glittering
field Though hsrd-working youth,
however, he found time TO become a
more than respectable swimmer and
oarsman. 1t was a training that bred
in him the love Of outdoor exercise,
and which sends him out on long,
swinging walks whenever he can get
free from official harness. "That man
is as strong as horse and works like

tribute once paid by Speaker Cannon to
the untiring industry Of Mr.. Cortelyou.
He is a notably consistent figure in a
vigorous "outdoor administration, -
and in his own quiet way breaches the
gospel of the strenuous life" by his
daily works.
