How to Take a Walk,

Walking has the best value as
gymnastics for the mind. "You shall
never break down in a speech" said
Sydney Smith, con the day on which
you have walked twelve miles" In
the English universities the reading
men are daily performing their pune
tual training in the boat clubs or a
long gallop of many miles in the sad
die, or taking their famed "constitu-
tionals of eight and ten
miles. Walking" said Rousseau,
has something which animates and
WHITES my IDEAS" And Plato said
of exercise that lit would almost cure
a guilty conscience" For the living
out of doors and simple fare and
gymnastic exercises and the morals
of companions produce the greatest
effect on the way of virtue and of
vice."
Few men know how to take a walk.
The qualifications of professor are
endurance, plain clothes, old shoes,
an eye for nature, good humor, vast
curiosity, good speech, good silence
and nothing too much.-From Emer-
sons's Lecture on the Country Life.

put on my coat. Gil, who had fol-
lowed me out, now followed me in,
still sucking his pipe. Then the ludic-
rousness of the happening burst upon
me, and sat me down and roared as
much at the disgust on Gil's face as
at our being so taken in.
When I had eased myself of my
merriment, which was soon-one does
not care to laugh alone, laughter like
wine needs company for one to enjoy
its flavor to the uttermost, and Gil
kept his lips on set level said to
hearten him:
Better luck in London"
"Luck's a jade" he muttered. "She
showers her gifts as woman her love
with as little Judgment. and her i'll
will with partially devoid of all rea-
soning. What in tffe devil did Tor
raine mean by saying that he saw a

had settled the question for me. He
came out OF the inn carrying on his

ropes.
What are you doing with them.
Gil?" l asked.
You'll find them down the road a
bit. wallering in the mud, trussed for
all the world like fowls ready for

look. Il think they will hesitate be-
fore prosecuting poor woman again, "
he added.
Good enough" laughed. But may
not our host, good Jock Swan, suffer
from the constable's anger?"
THE fat one will take to his bed.

else that comes to his lips"
Jock having an equal confidence in
his ability to convince the men of his
innocence, satisfied me that he was
glad of this opportunity to pay off old

People who are very susceptible to
cold. should be rubbed with oil after
each bath. Oil rubbing Is especially
needed In cases In which the skin Is
dry, through deficient activity of tho

however, should be taken TO avoid too
vigorous rubbing In the application OF
the oil, as sweating Is very easily pro-
duced, to the disadvantage of the pa

children, marked and most favor.

by oil rubbing. Application OF oil
after cold baths encourages reaction.
In most cases OF chronic dyspepsia

diabetes, and In most cases In which

is a prominent feature, oil rubbing is
a valuable curative agency.

The Health department OF the city Of
Philadelphia has decided that in future
tuberculosis shall be classed with
other diseases that are dangerous to
the public health. such as smallpox.
diphtheria, scarlet fever, and other
contagious maladies. The law In
Pennsylvania and most other States of
the Union requires that every case Of
contagious disease shall be reported
to the Health department. Hereafter
all cases of tuberculosis must be so
reported by the attending physician.
The purpose of this law is to enable

Muscles Tina. Shut Out Cold.

"The muscles of the skin need train.
ing to educate them to contract vigor.
ously on the slightest cold" says a
medical writer, ito shut the blood out
Of the skin so quickly that the pre-
cious body heat will not be lost. You
notice that when the skin is cold
there is a 'goose-skin' appearance.
This is due to the contraction Of the
little muscles of the skin. The con-
traction of the muscles congresses
the external blood vessels and drives
away the blood from the surface,
hardening and thickening the skin,
which thereby becomes better non
conductor. Thus the body tempera-
ture is maintained.
"It is because of the constant ex-
posture to cold that the Indians body
is all face The skin of his whole
body, not only that of the face, has
learned to take care of ITSELF"

Tall and rugged, every line OF his
face indicating indomitable will, there
stood upon the western bank of the
Red river stalwart young fellow of
twenty years. In his hand small
bundle tied In a blue handerchief--his
entire wardrobe. In his pockets a $40
! bill issued by the bank of Holly
Springs. Miss.--his entire fortune.
His face was toward the setting sun
and he looked Texasward.
II was the afternoon OF May 80, 1889,
and as the young man looked he real
ICED that In all of the great land be-
fore him there was none to whom he
might look for aid. His future was his
alone, About him on every side were
the foes of the frontiersman. but not
for moment did his feet falter; not
for moment did his heart fail. He
was strong with the strength of one
who knows himself, and without fear
he took up his journey into strange
land.
Three score and six years after, the
young man, now in his six and eight
ieth year, had closed marvellous ca
reer. In his life he had served under
three flags, had honored and been hen
ored by the people in whose cause he
was as valiant in war as he was wise
liz peace, and finally, in the fullness of
years and achievement, passed to his
eternal rest.
Born In Sewer county, Tennessee,
Oct. 8, 1918, and dying at his home at
Palestine, Texas, March 6, 1905, the
activities of John Henninger Reagan
furnish an inspiration to all Ameri-
cans. In the Republic of Texas he
fought in many campaigns against the
Indians. In the State of Texas he
served the commonwealth as colonel
OF its militia, justice Of the peace, sat
In Its legislature and upon the bench.
Then he went to Congress and was
counted one of the ablest members of
the House, which he left in 1861 be-
cause he believed it his duty to cast
his fortunes with the confederacy.
Under the stars and bars his was
high political preferment. First Post.
master General of the Confederate
States of America he relinquished
that post to become secretary of its
treasury, devoting his energies and
his fortune to a cause he loved and
fondly hoped might prevail. But when
the fortunes of war decreed that the
southland should not depart the Union
returned to his people to advocate con-
citation and unity.
Ripe in experience, he again became
a legislator of the nation, serving as
a senator from 1887 until 1891, father
ing the Reagan interstate commerce
law" which as afterward amended
by Senator Cullom Of Illinois became
the law which is now in force.
The life of Judge Reagan links the
history of the old with that of the
new. His work was strenuous, his.
tory-making. For more than sixty-fve
years and during the greater part of
this period he was in the political
