members of parliament, nearly 400 wo-
men sutfragists, representing organza-

lerviewed Premier Campbell Banner
man at the foreign office aud presented
their claims that women be allowed TO
vote
Only eight members Of the numerous
deputaton were allowed to speak, and
a time limit was named
The immediate grant Of womens
rights was the unanimous demand of
the speakers. and one speaker men
acingly declared that the women were
prepared to sacrifice their lives in be-
half of their demands.
The premier smiled upon this
strangely assorted gathering of wom-
en-, including ladies' of title side by
side with factory employees, and said
he sympathized with the obieet of the
deputation. but asked his visitors TO be
patient until the government became

of the franchise TO women.
Personally he believed that women
were as well qualified as men, and
perhaps better, to exercise the right to
vote. and, in his opinion. the deputa-
ton had made ont a conclusive and ir-
REPUTABLE case
Speaking for others however. as well
as for himself, the premier pointed out
that II was necessary to preach the
virtue of patience. Only harm would
result If. because of his own sym
pathleS and convictions, he gave a
pledge regarding the time and method
of achieving the object they had in
view. He warned the women against
ndlScreet action, which. he said, would
probably check the flowing tide, and
advised them TO leave the matter conf
IDENTIFY to the growing strength of their
ease
The premier wound up his remarks
with the statement that he believed
it would not he many years before
the desired change was brought about
This reference TO years was met
with kissing from the members of the
deputation, who left the foreign office
evidently greasN dissatisfied.

Hurry, like a cyclone, whirls
you along at a rate that
quickly exhausts your energy,
and leaves you a nerveless,
wretched, broken-down phys
ical wreck.
Worry accomplishes the
same results in another way.
1t drags you through the dark,
gloomy tunnel of forbodings,
wrecks your nerves and breaks
down the constitution.
Then don't hurry; don't
worry. But you will; and
your nerveless, exhausted con-
dition brings headaches, neu-
ralgia, heart, stomach, liver
and kidney troubles. The thing
to do is; Strengthen the nerves

TAXING
IN nIlLYARD

At the meeting of committee of
the 100000 club, the chamber of
commerce and citizens of Hillyard
last night in the rooms of the cham
Der of commerce, it was decided to
favor annexation of Hillyard.
The resolution read: THAT if
Hillyard and the other territory
proposed make a reasonable show
ing, it is the sentiment of this
gathering that they be annexed to
Spokane"
The town of Hillyard has been
after annexation for three years.
The first time the citizens tried to
talk to the city council, they could
not get a hearing. The next time
the matter was discussed. This
time the changes seem to be favor
able for the successful carrying out
of the scheme.

of the tent chung to him, and he
tore them off with his claws and
teteth, and then sent blazing frag-
ments flying in every direction.
His shaggy hair had become satur-
ated with oil and was blazing and
swapping merrily in patches. His
fury was something frightful and
his general aspect decidedly de-
moniac.
At first he did not see any Of the
party, but in one of his mad whirls
he caught sight of Smith, who had
just fired at him. The bear chang
ed on Smith, who turned and ran
like a deer, with the blazing bear
in pursuit. Smith did not notice
the direction he took until, in half
a dozen jumps, he saw the bank of
the creek before him. There was
no time to turn. He put all his en-
ergy in his legs and leaped as far
into the stream as he could, fall
ing feet foremost with a "chug."
The Illuminated bear followed with
a prodigious splash and distinct
sizzle.
Then Noisy Smith dived under
water. turned up stream and swan
silently back to the bank from
which he had leaped. The bear
drifted down stream and swan to
the opposite bank. Argullo and
Farney peppered him with their
revolvers. He reached the other
side and disappeared, wailing and
moaning with pain, and that was
the last seen of him.
When Noisy Smith got back in
to the light of the burning camp
he whispered to the other boys,

BY Ella X. Dearborn, M. D.

While there may be many peo-
pie who get too much exercise in
their daily work, there are equally
many who do not get enough, and
even those who overwork with
their muscles, are benefited by a
change.
Judicious exercise and proper
food make perfect health.
Gymnasium exercise is better
than none, but it is not to be COM
pared with that taken in the open
air.
To get oxygen, one must breathe
pure air, and few people breathe
correctly-the shoulders are held
forawdr and crowd the lungs.
Try to touch the shoulder blades
together in the back, and while do
ing so, inhale slowly all the air
the lungs will hold, retain ~ three
seconds, and slowly exhale.
You can do this while walking
about the house, or on the street,
when at your desk in school or
office; it relieves headache and ner-
vousness through equalized circula-
ton.
Rapid walking in the open air is
excellent exercise With head up,

chin in, chest out and shoulders
back" take long, swinging strides,
with the arms swinging freely at
the sides, or clasped behind the
back. Be sure to walk on the sun
ny side of the street, unless the
day be hot. The average person
dislikes to walk for exercise, and
it is 20 be deplored that the cycling
fad has gone by, for never was
there a fad that combined at once
so many desirable and pleasant
things, and had so little on the
other side of the balance.
To a debilitated person who is
taking exercise for it's therapeutic
value, little caution is necessary.
Do not overdo-watch the heart
rate, if it is over 100, rest until it
is below 80, but persevere in the
exercise and the heart will soon
become strong. The heart can rest
faster if the patient assumes a hor-
izontal position.
For sleeplessness, a walk or BIZ
cycle ride, in the evening, the dis
lance depending upon the patients
strength, will relieve the over
charged nerve cells and induce re-
freshing sleep, and is worth more
than a barrel of somniferous drugs.
Exercise before meals - rest or
sleep after meals-even 10 minutes
spent on the couch after lunch is
of untold value to those who must
rush the rest of the day-but DO
stretch out as limp as rag and
make the most of that 10 minutes.
Walking or cycling is the best
exercise for a torpid liver, and for
indoor liver exercise, walk on the
hands and feet (all fours); this
is also said to prevent appendicitis.
The laugh that invariably follows
this last exercise is worth $40. Lay
aside your dignity, and let the baby
ride while you give your liver it's
needed stimulus.

LOGANSPORT, Ind, Jan. 10
Signing another mans name
without authority generally results
in trouble, but in the case of d. B.
McDermet, telegraph operator at
Peoria Junction, Ind, it promises
to prove a stepping stone to pro-
motion.
McDermet attached his superior
officers signature to an important
telegram, nervily wired it as o. K.
and waited for results. The chief
result was that a train load of peo-
pie was saved from probable death.
And instead of condemnation,
which he fully expected, letters and
kilograms of praise arrived from
superiors on the great Pennsylva-
MIA railroad.
