and a strain upon the muscles; but one
can take hold of a chair by way OF assist
ance and not bend too far either way. The
idea is to bend the body until 1t feels
supple The more one bends in modera-

THE neck must be small If one IS gong
to get the Empire figure. The French
woman always insists on having little
throat and little ankles
THE exercises for the redemption OF
the throat are pretty. The head is thrown
back and the throat is exercised.
1.-The head is thrown back upon the
arms and rested there. Then 1t Is lifted
and rested again. Then 1t Is thrown back
again. This is a very easy exercise
1.-THE French woman is too economical
to spend much upon her gown. Her money
goes upon her home and upon her dogs,
upon her church and her household, and
into her savings; but when she does puy
gown she makes the most of it.
"She gets a cheap and becoming dress
and she puts 1t on slowly and carefully
When she is gowned she looks as II her
dress was built for her 1t is so perfect.
1.-The American woman will be nearer
to being chic when she learns to keep her
figure down. Until then she had better
stick to something plain.
"As soon as she realizes the impor-
lance of the waist line, then she can
branch out into the glories of the Empire,
and the svelte delights of the princess;
but not before"

CARE OF DOGS.
Proper Food to Give-How Often to
Wash Them-The Kennel.

Remember that a dog digests It's foou
very slowly, so should never have more
than two meals a day when in health. For
q house dog that gets little exercise one
meal is sufficient.
The food should be plain, wholesome ana
nutritious. Above all things, says Country
Life in America, avoid preserves and
sweetmeats of all kinds, sugar, hot toast,
Tea and other stuff of that kind
Feed your dog regularly, If you give
him one meal day. let 1t be at midday;
AZ two. morning and evening, and always
at the same hour.
Let the animal eat until he is satisfied,
for II he is fed regularly you need have
mo fear that he will gorge
II your pet is to be kept in the house,
he will require very little meat-a small
niece every third day with bone to gnaw
on. A bone Is a great aid to digestion,
and keeps the teeth in good condition.
Give bread soaked in meat gravy. biscuit
soaked in milk. oatmeal or rice or pota-
foes and once or twice week green veg
etables Scraps of beef mutton, etc, from
the table are all that is needed in the way
Of meats. Avoid giving liver
Dog biscuit is good for change. Many
owners feed fish now and then to their
6oes. but we have had dogs that such food
oIwavs caused to suffer from skin dis
ease
Let your dog have water as often as he
wants 1t.
Give your dog regular exercise. Do not

him into the cage and made his Sunday

TIGER KILLS PYTHON.
Battle in Storm on Deck of Steamer
Gives Big Cat Meal.

From the New York Sun.
Anyone who has never seen the biggest
python ever brought to this country can
find that snake on board the steamship
Indrasamha, which arrived here yester-
day from Yokohama, Singapore and other
ports east of Suez.
Captain Wilkes, master, says the snake
is q feet long and feet in circumference.
No one took the trouble to measure him
yesterday, but he looks every inch of the
size the captain gave.
There were four other big pythons when
the Indrasamha sailed from Singapore on
July 10, besides a royal Bengal tiger that
was the champion man-eater in those
parts before he was captured and sold.
He looks still as If his appetite might be
good If he only had chance to spread
himself
If ii hadn't been for the tiger. the five
pythons would have arrived intact. The
I tiger killed one of them last Sunday after
a terrific battle
Each of the pythons was in separate
box on the main deck amidshps and the
tiger was in his cage not far away. Last
Sunday the Indrasamha ran into a hurri-

any means, but one of those that sailors

UPRIGHT DESKS IN VOGUE.
Many Persons Prefer to Stand When
They Read and Write.
rrom ME- Charleston Is. Cd News.

From the Charleston IS Co News.
Upright reading desks are constantly
growing in popularity. Unlike ordinary
desks, they are usually fitted to their
users. They are comfortable only when
they are of the proper height.
Contrary to what one might think read
ing while on ones feet it is not firing.
1t has been adopted chiefly by persons
who are compelled to sit at a desk much
of their time, and like to stand up for a
change. Writing is just as easily accom-
plished at these desks.
We've sold a great many such desks
to lawyers" a dealer told the reporter.
land they use them at home. This gives
some relaxation after they have sat all
day. in their offices at their ordinary
desks leaning over in the way men do.
Lawyers, more than any other class
of professional men, are also compelled
to read at night. They are my best GUS
toners for the upright desks, although
sell them as well to architects.
1.-THE men who use them are always en-
thusiastic. They say that to stand up at
their work is less fatiguing than to sit
down, and is in any case n great relief
from the monotony of the other attitude"

FEMALE WREsTLERs.
FIGHT Like Fiends In Japan, and No
Hold Is Barred.

From Macmillans Magazine.
The wrestlers arranged themselves In

umpire They squatted upon their feet
and bowed to each other slowly and SOL

they stood up again and bent over oppo-

watching intently for a chance to seize
an advantage. During the preiimlnarles
the audience was tense with expectation.
Then suddenly the women sprang, kissing
at each other furiously and crashing their
teeth. at first by Stimulating ferocity to
spur themselves up to greater excitement,

ANY and all holds seemed fair means to

signal for the umpire to begin "Hitotsu,

and disconnected squeaks; and before he
ceased counting another wrestler from the
losing side jumped up to meet the cham

arms and stood stock sHll for full five
minutes. Some picked up their opponents
Mt once and threw them bodily over the
ring while others rolled over with them.
This latter course threatened to cause al
most q disaster on several occasions. The
poor weak umpire Che seemed almost a
midget beside them) attempted to assert
his prerogatives, to declare the result, as
was his custom, after every bout, in a
high sing-song voice, and with raising
of his fan to his forehead. an excellent
gesture of finalty. But If his decision dis
nIeased the combatants they would have
none of It. The captain of each side
sprang up into the ring, followed by sew

clutched at his garments they pummeled
him roughly; soon partisans in the audi

the umpire's discretion got the better part
of his conscience, and he obligingly an
nounced what the majority wanted. Then
only was he left in peace; the irate ladies
returned gurgling to their places, and the
wrestling recommended. The act was
completed with the vanquishing of one
side after which, bowling low. the per-
formers trooped out to rest.

A trip to Southern Oregon at thii
season OF the year Is not only ben
ediction TO the busy worker from the
valley, but an inspiration for future
labors upon HIS return. The writer
has been spending a week in the
Cow Creek country and will be ex-
cused II he becomes a trifie efferes-
cent over the climate. the crops, the
game and the fish he didn't catch.
The country down there has all
these things in abundance and of
superb quality. The climate Is very
like unto that OF the Willamette val
ley. except instead OF the dlurnal
sea breezes, those people have a
species OF mountain ozone that
makes one buoyant, gives him a
good appetite, and they sleep the
sleep OF the Just. The crops of that
country are more varied and abund-
ant than most people suppose. A
drive up or down Cow Creek cam
yon will convince any tenderfoot
that outside world has no conception
OF the immense resources OF that
country. Besides the fine herds of
cattle and big bands OF sheep which
that region has been accredited with
one Is surprised TO find large fields
OF wheat and oats. alfalfa and
yefches. Goats are being raised sue
cessfully in large numbers, and on
one farm we saw hundred Berk-
shire hogs harvesting" as many
acres OF ripe grain. The owner con-
siders that better investment than
cutting the grain, stacking and

price and perform the labor besides.
