creates conditions which develop
the nervous system.
There is no time in a mans life
when he can afford to dispense
with exercise; unless he faithful
ly and persistently develops his
physical resources, vitality be-
comes impaired Exercise does
for the body what Intellectual
training does for the mind; yet
most men who lead sedentary
lives take little or no exercise,
with the result that they over
work the brain, making it incap-
able of reruperation by nutrition;
hence lrritability, then insomnia,
and often the thinking faculty
breaks loose from the control of
the will, resulting in insanity and
possibly suicide.
Physical exercise aids diges-
ton, improves physique, clears
the mind, and gives grace and
assurance. Mans destiny as re-
CARDS the body is to a great ex-
tent in his own hands, and he
should study the needs of the
body if desirous of enjoying life.
Unless disease is inherited, every
mortal born into this world is
physically healthy, and if proper
attention be given to physical
culture there is every chance of
a long life: but if neglected, pre-
mature death is generally the re-
suit, for when disease attacks
the frame there is not sufficient
physical strength to resist it.
Perfect health can exist only
when the muscles are perfectly.
trained, and habitual exercise
favors the elimination of effete
matters from the system, food
is more easily digested, and
nerve-power enhanced.
1t is in the power of any one
to improve his physical condition,
and all who desire symmetry of
form, grace of action, and per-
manent health should give at
tention to the art of developing
the body.

Wonderful Wave.

The is a wonderful wave over
the country against the saloon
business. Down at Rockport re-
Gently the saloons have been re-
monstrated out Of the town. A
cry is raised that the taking of
saloons out of a community hurts
the business interests o. the town
but such a cry has not had the
effect of keeping the people from
demonstrating them out of late
years that it once had. In towns
where they have tried it for any
length of time it has been proven
that the business was of a more
substantial nature when they had
no saloons. This town is one of
the towns whose business has
not suffered by the loss of sa-
looms. The towns business to-
day is upon a more solid and sub
stantial footing than it ever was.
True, this town was hurt by the
failure of the Winslow Gas Coal
Company but it is getting over
that. Speaking of the movement
against the saloon, Henry Wat
terson wrote last Sunday week
ago as follows:
"The saloon as it is called and
as it exists in the United States,
has not a redeeming feature. 1t
is the direct source of two thirds
of the evil that corrupts our liv-
ing from theft and murder,
from wife beating and child
beating to State prison and self
destruction. If the hatchet of

Why the Body Should be Cultivated.

man figure marks some excel
lence OF structure, and any in
crease of fitness to its end in any
fabric or organ is an increase of
beauty. EMERSON.
The importpnt subject of phys
lcal culture is not considered as
1t ought to be by the majority of
men and women, and there is al
most absolute ignorance of the
makeup of the body on the part
OF even intelligent people, with
little desire for such knowledge.
although health, beauty and sue
cess depend largely on the treat
ment given to the body. Mental
requirements are blindly wor-
shipped, while the essential ques-
ton of health receives little
thought, and hence it is almost
impossible to find men in the or
dinary walks of active life, at
middle age, who do not complain
of impaired health and want of
vital force.
Without a sound body one can
not have sound mind, and, un-
less proper attention is given to
the culture of the body, good
health cannot be expected. Pla-
to is said to have called a certain
man lame because he exercised
the mind while the body was al
lowed to suffer. This is done to
an alarming extent nowadays.
Brain-workers, as rule, exercise
no part of the body except the
head, and consequently suffer
from indigestion, palpitation of
the heart, insomnia, and other
ills, which if neglected generally
prove fatal. Brilliant and sue
cessful men are constantly OBJ
liged to give up work through
the growing malady of nervous
prostation; the number Of those
who succumb to it has inreased
to an alarming extent of late
years, and that of suicides hardly
less. Few will question that
this is owing to overworking the
brain and the neglect of body
culture. Vitality becomes inn
parted and strength consumed by
mental demands, which are now.
adys raised to a perilous height,
and it is only by careful attention
to physical development and by
judicious bodily exercise that the
brain worker can counteract the
strain. Women rarely
consider the Importance of physi-
cal culture, yet they need physi-
cal training almost more than
men do. Thousands of our
young women are unfit to become
wives or mothers, who might be
strong and beautiful if they gave
a short time daily to physical de-
Physical training is particular
beneficial to the young of both
sexes, and educators are becom-
ing alive to the fact. Many of
the leading colleges have includ-
ed this subject in the curriculum
and spent large sums in facilities
for the purpose. 1t is to be
hoped that the minor seats of
earring will speedily follow the
and a more general in
crest be awakened in the i'm
oortance of physical education
or the young. This is a duty I
which parents should not neg
ect, for they are as strictly re-
;ponsible for the bodies of their
as they are for their
souls.
1t is a mistake to think that
he gymnasium is a place only
or the young. All who lead Sc
lentary lives, even when past
middle age, can improve their
bodies by gymnastic exercise.

TIE DEVIL GOT HIS DUES

The old and perhaps true saying,
Whatever goes over the devils
back is sure to bind his belly"
was forcibly brought to the mind
short time ago when a Negro
barber, who caters to the vicious,
envious element of the white race,
by drawing the color line. moped
into a white restaurant for lunch.
The proprietor, one of his patrons,
being of the same calibre, refused
to serve him on the grounds that
the said barber was a Negro. In
stead of taking the medicine of his
own making, as he. should have
done. he went to the court and
kicked like a bob-tail mule in fly
time. The Justice court which is
catering to the same element at
the expense of the Negro's rights,
fed the barber on his own swill by
turning him down on a technical :
ity. A few weeks ago we stopped
to get shine at a bootblack stand
in front of barber shop run by
Negroes and was almost paralized
by being informed by the Negro
bootblack that they didn't shine
shoes for Negroes.
We have witnessed insults of
every kind and character heaped
upon our men and women by low,
prejudiced whites, but we never
experienced such feeling of dis
gust, anger and humiliation us we
did on that occasion. Two blocks
away, and on the most prominent
street in the city, we went to a
bootblack stand run by white

estate dealer of No. 81 West One
Hundred and Thirty fourth street,
purchased few days ago for S100-
900 the two flats at Nos. 16S and
ITO West One Hundred and Thir-
ty-ffth street, occupied by more
than Is reputable white families.
West and East of these houses are
many high priced apartment hous-
es. The occupants of these, as
well as the tenants of the purchas-
ed houses. are the ones who are
Jared by the edict of the rich col
ored woman.
The sale was made last week,
and each tenant of the Elias
houses received a note from Pay
ton, notifying them to vacate at
once, the note adding that in the
future none but respectable color
ed families were to occupy the
flats.
Hannah Elias, who has been
discouraged in her frantic and ex-
pensive efforts to make her COM
pIexion fade, is said to have re-
solved to openly espouse the color
ed cause and to associate in the
future with her own race.
I've already rented most of
these flats to decent colored peo-
ple," said Cook, the new janitor.

"The home life has very vital
and practical application to Chris
tianity," he said. History teach
es that people who have practiced
the most Christianity have had the
most homes. Fundamentally we
should get to the point where ev-
cry one of our people would own
his home. One weakness Of our
race is that we have too many
shanties. Many of our people are
living in filthy back alleys. One
thing about the Negroes of the
South is that while poor they can
live on the farms and get plenty of
, good pure air. They are an ignor-
f.nt but not degraded people.

Atlanta. Ga, July Floyd
Carmichael, a Negro about %
years old, who was identified by
Miss Annie Poole of Lakewood, a
suburb of Atlanta, as the man who
assaulted her early to-day, was shot
in front of the Poole resident, in
sight of his victim, this afternoon
by posse which had captured
him. After he had been shot
there were cries of Burn himr'
but county police, arriving at the
time, prevented such action. About
10 O'Clock this morning while re-
turning from a visit to a neighbor,
Miss Poole. who is Is years old,
was attacked by the Negro and
choked until unconscious. When
the alarm was given a posse quick
ly formed but it was not until late
in the afternoon that the Negro
was caught and brought into Miss
POOLS presence. She identified
him, volley of shots rang out,
and the Negro fell dead.
