graduate Pensacola upon having a
class of people who are unwilling to
stand idly by and not protect the
dumb beasts from the cruel treat
ment they often receive from human
brutes, who are too degraded to be
classed in the same grade as the
dumb animals. Every city should
have such an organization, and the
Elevator has suggested before this
that our ladies show their true hui
mainly by getting up such society.

forced-Gainesville Elevator.

Public Spirited journal.

The Journal last week distributed
5000 pocket savings banks and 81 800
in money among the boys and girls
of Pensacola The purpose aside from
increase of business was to encOur-
age the practice of saving among the
coming citizens. The plan was unique.
The Journal offered little. bank and
so cents in money to every child who
had made or saved 81. Thus was be-
gan many little bank accounts. This
was a noble act. Our people are
wasteful folk. Savings banks encour-
age savings among the people The
only way to overcome this improVi-
dent habit is to begin with the chill
dren They should not only be taught
the value of money. but required at
an early age to make money Then
they should be helped to spend it
wisely But more than this they
should be encouraged to save part
of every dollar they get. This prac-
tice would soon become habit. The
habit would not only enable many a
young man or young woman to have
a nice start when thrown on their
own resources, but would be worth in
character what money cannot give.
Of course there is a danger of going
to the other extreme. A man may
come to think money is everything.
He may become miser, mean and
miserable. Just now there is little
danger of this among our boys and
girls Try to save something.-Ar-

or the torso that can be made to touch
the wall the more successful and ef-
fective is the exercise. You can see
how this stretches out all the muscles
over the abdomen and hips and how
impossible 1t would be for fat to exist
where muscles are given such active
treatment. The body is raised again
10 an upright position by pressing
against the wall with the hands. and
then the whole set of motions is re-
peated as many times as each person
finds it wise to do them.
There is a familiar bending exercise
that is simple and efficaciOus in hip re-
ducing. While the knees are kept rigid
the body is bent forward at the hips
and the hands are extended until the
tips of the fingers touch the floor in
front. Though this is an old one it has
many good points. and The women who
are able to go through these motions
fifty times in succession may easily
count themselves eligible 10 the short
WASTED class. for few hips can with
stand the influence of so much bending
and so much manipulation OF their
muscles.
1t is not so easy to go through a
similar exercise where the body bends
at the side, but at the same time Il Is
well worth trying Tor the sake OF the
slenderness that is given to the figure
and the suppleness. too. when the
movements are gone through with
carefully each morning. II the hips are
abnormally large, then more violent
treatment must be resorted to. Women
with such hips, however. should not
dream of adopting any picturesque
style of dress, such as the revived en-
pire and its near relations They're
quire a course of treatment first, and
afterward exercises will keep them in
good condition.
There is this difference between the
women OF today who wear short-waist-
ed gowns and those OF a century ago.
A belle OF 1910 did not lace herself into
long stays reaching from the bust to
