HOW TO WALK WELL

gracefully.
It is impossible for woman TO bo awk-
ward I'm her walk II she walks straight
and keeps her knees stiff. The act OF
swinging the feet gives one a graceful

Walk slowly. skirts wind around your

Don't swing your shoulders.

Don't walk. nor look nor act like an
old person. Thcre are no old persons In
these days.
Touch the ground first with the balls
OF your feet, with the heels striking an

Learn also how TO be seated. Don't

NOT RESULT OF BEING
LAZY, But A DISEASE

It's a mistake and an injustice to many
abstemious folk 20 assume that all tat
nersons are gluttons or large eaters. Very
many excessively corpulent people, espe-
cially women, are small eaters, while
some Of the most doughty trenchermen
are gaunt and thin.
Il Is not the quantity so much as the
quality OF the food one eats which deter
inmates the putting ON OF flesh. Yet ~ y
not always the kind of food that makes
the obese, for some stout people eat very
sparingly of sugars and starches, while
there are largo consumers OF sweets who
never nut on flesh I'm such cases II Is
question of constitution, often of hered-
ity and not at all, or very little, one OF
diet
Another prevalent error In regard TO fat
people is that they are inert or lazy and
never exercise OF course, exercise does
increase the processes Of nutrition and so
leads TO the burning up of supertluous fat
hut at the same time IL causes an increase
in the appetite and thus tempts To the
consumption OF greater quantity or
food. So one thing balances the other,
and want of exercise alone Is not very
potent cause of obesity Many very fat
persons are. IT is true. sluggish, but they
have become 80 since putting on their
flesh, for it makes great difference
whether one carries 100 pounds about
when one walks or whether IL Is neces-
sary To propcl half as much again or even
double the weight. II Is a tremendous
handicap and there IL small wonder that
the lghtweights do the most exercising.
Obesity. indeed. Is usually a disease ana
not merely the result of lazness or glut-
tony. Its cause lies deep down i'm the ami
NAL economy. In among those mysterious

DEMOCRATIC
DOCTRINE.

"The Democratic party
in Rhode Island believes in
the general good sense OF
the body polite.
at believes that corrup-
ton, insincerity, exploita-
ton of the people for per-
sonal and corporate gain
cannot long find favor be-
fore a majority of the peo-
pie; and it desires so to
change our organic law,
our state constitution, that
the task OF the CRATER, the
boss. the insincere and the
political tool to hold the
fort for any length OF time
will almost be superhuman.
at desires so TO fix the
method OF representation
that, no matter what party
may be in control, there
shall remain TO a majority
of the people the power 10
drive them out should they
violate their sacre
pledges. Hon. John J.

Sound Both i'm Principle and Policy

The proposition that congress shall
highway construction is sound in priH-
ciple and patriotic as to policy. 1t is
not new, except that the favors of the
general government have for many
years been turned into other channels.
The aid extended to the Pacific rail
roads, covering hundreds of millions
of money and public lands. and the
hundreds of millions spent on rivers
and harbors was all based upon the
theory that the government but served
its own good when appropriating
money TO increase and improve the
transportation facilities of the country
That is a sound proposition. and if ad-
hered to by the congress must lead TO
the early extension of government aid
TO the states in road improvement
The government rests upon the loyalty
of its people. The people sustain it in
times of peace and defend it in times
of war The people are the govern
ment. Whatever policy will benefit
the people becomes a national obi
cation to be observed by those entrust-
ed with power. Road building is a
recognized function of government in
every civilized country but ours.
No country has ever witnessed sys-
tematic road construction except by
government aid. Our national exper;
ence is ample TO justify the declara-
ton that the union will never have
systematized road building until the
general government leads the way in
cooperation with the states. If the
congress had authority under the con-
stitution to take the peoples money
from the treasury to aid such special
interests as railroad construction and
rivers and harbor Improvement, surely
no man of creditable reputation will
contend that it is not authorized by the
constitution TO take the peoples money
and devote it TO their own direct and
immediate internal necessities Every
body comedies the necessity of good
roads. The department of agriculture
has figured from carefully gathered data
of the United States s1.500,000 every
time the sun goes down That is a
fearful showing.
Refusal TO relieve this condition is
the same to the farmers as if the gov
eminent should annually come along
and confiscate that much of their pro-
ducts. or as if congress should order
it destroyed by other means. We need
good roads legislation more than we
need a lot of other things contended
for at every congress. We need good
legislation more than any special thing
just now. and We hope the 59th con-
gress will do justice TO the people and
either enact the proposed Brownlow-
Latimer bill. or some similar measure,
into law
