HELPS TO HEALTH
AND GOOD LOOKS,

Physicians declare that women are
doing themselves serious injury In their
efforts to get thin. Exercise is all right,
but exercise so violent that 1t leaves a
woman tired out is not to be advised,
any more than is too little food taken in
the interest of slenderness.
A good hip reducing exercise, II not
carried to excess, is to stand on a slight
elevation, say on n hassock or the end
of a steamer trunk, and swing the leg
back and forth like a pendulum. AT first
take this motion quite slowly. later In

TUPELO WOOD IS
NOW WIDELY USED
Regarded as Useless Until
Forest Service Proved
Its Value

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
WASHINGTON. Feb. lS-The scientific
study Of the merits OF many species Of
trees against the use Of which there has
been a prejudice for one reason or the
other is one Of the most important phases
Of the forest work Of the government.
from an economic standpoint. and the in
vostigations which have already been
made have provided the lumber Industry
with much valuable Information.
The latest discoveries Of valuable quail
ties In former neglected species result
ed after an investigation OF the tupelo
gum which finds It's home In the Southern
swamps. Experts say that the study has
brought out as important data as the
studies made on the loblolly pine, another
species which was neglected for many
years, but which is now put to valuable
use for many purposes.
Tupelo, two years ago. al the time the
study was begun. was little known and
seldom used even In the sections OF tho
country where it Is most plentiful. In the
logging on of cypress In the Gulf States,
where tupelo is found In large quantities.
the trees we're entirely disregarded. II
was found that the prejudice then exist
ing against the wood WIS caused by a
lack Of knowledge Of its properties and
lack OF care In handling the material.
The Investigations have been carried on
by the United States Forest Service ana
have proved the value Of the wood FOR a
number OF uses. The result OF these stud
les removed. very largely. the existing
prejudices against this gum, and In a
short time the demand for tupelo rapidly
increased
Now Use Tupelo.
This wood is now widely used. not only
in the State where It grows but also in
different sections OF the country. IN the
manufacture Of wooden pumps, sounding
boards for vlolins and organs. nantes.
and interior finishing. such as moulding,
door and window frames and door Jams
II is manufactured also into all kinds OF
lumber. including a good grade or edge
grain flooring. Tupelo gum. In the form
Of flooring. was recently found competing
successfully with Douglas hr In the Los
Angeles market, even though bearing a
freight rate of IS cents per hundred
weight from its source OF production in
Louisiana.
This is only one example OF the studies
carried on by the government for the
purpose OF creating markets and estab-
fishing uses for the kinds OF wood whose
properties are not understood. The reason
for making these studies is that by finding
substitutes for woods now In use which
have grown scarce In consequence Of an
excessive demand. the timber supply OF
the country Is in effect increased, the
most economical use Of wood is promoted,
and the evils OF a general shortage in
wood supply are to that degree lossened.

This advice should be Needed by all
who are subject to rhenmatism, kidney
and bladder troubles and especially
catarrh. While the latter is considered
by most sufferers an incurable dis
ease, there are a few men or women
who VIII fail TO experience great 70
lief from the following simple home
prescription, and II taken in time It Will
prevent an attack Of catarrh during
the entire season.
Here is q prescription which any ono
can mix: Fluid Extract Dandeiion
one-half ounce. Compound Kargon orc
ounce. Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla
three ounces. Shake well IN a bottle
and use in teaspoonful doses after each
meal ana again at bedtime
The Compound Kargon in this pre-
scription acts directly upon the ellmi-
native tissues OF the kidneys to make
them filter and strain from the blood,
the poisons that produce all forms Of
catarrhal affections Relief is often
felt even after the first few doses and
II is seldom that the sufferer ever ex-
periences a return attack within tho
year.
This prescription makes a splendid
remedy for all forms Of blood disor-
ders and such symptoms as lame back,
bladder weaknesses and rheumatism
pains are entirely dlspelled.

cipe comes from a thoroughly reliable
source. II should be needed by every
