II should not be too Vigorous.
Proper massage IL done with the

The very first thing to do when one

Is to mold the general contour.
This IL done with the tips of the

The massage must be advanced

THE RICH MAN
AND HIS GENIE


There was man who in addition
to being quite rich, had & Genie
among his personal attendants. This
Genie had signed a contract to keep
the man contented. 1t was a super
natural being, or it would not have
undertaken such task; as it was, 1t
frequently wondered if it hadn't bit
ten off more than 1t could chew. The
mans lot in life was corner one,
but he was constantly running up
against the corner.
IT want to see Paradise" he said
to the Genie. when I have seen
Paradise, I shall be satisfied. And,
as all men are content in the grave,
1t will be no feather in your cap to
let me die to attain my wish"
The Genie, therefore, took the man
and showed him Paradise. 1t did
this with misgivings, which were JUS
titled by the sequel. The man, upon
his return, was more dissatisfied than
ever. He had lost what little appre-
cation he had ever had for the Good
Red Earth. He also became more or
less of a nuisance to his neighbors.
He contracted the complaint known
as travellers Congratulated con-
tinually of where he had been; drew
comparisons of the public buildings,
unfavorable to his home town, and
enlarged upon the superiority of the
street paving over there.
The Genie corked itself up in bot
tie and took stock.
"This fellow" it reflected, lis max
ing Paradise out to be better than it
really is. l did not think its glories
could be exaggerated, but reckoned
without my employer, and wist not
of the power of retrospective imagin-
alton. Of verify must take steps"
So it took the man and showed him
hades. 1t left him there some little
time, to give the environment chance
to environ. When the man got back
he was very quiet for about three
days. Although the weather was cold
he seemed to enjoy it, and when he
stepped on match he nearly had a
CONFUSION. On the fourth day he
chippered up, and in week the Ge-
ME heard him talking to friend in
a fondly reminiscent strain.
ut was delightfully."- warm down
there he was saying, land there
was an agreeable absence of mud.
And there was one imp, in Room SO,
that I got to be quite chummy with,
and who was n most communicable
fellow. Poor old Flib! Do you
know, I'd really like to see him
again."
After this, the Genie realized that
1t was up against the Hopeless. 1t
handed in its resignation, to take eff
feet at once, and took farewell slide
through the outer keyhole.-Puck.

THE PAINTING SEASON.

Good results in painting at the
least cost depend largely upon the
material chosen. Paint is simple
compound and the ingredients can be
easily tested. The solid part or pig
ment should be White Lead. The
liquid part should be Linseed OIL.
Those best informed on painting al
ways buy these ingredients separate
ly, and have their painter mix them
fresh for each job. Before the mix
ing the test is made.
Place pea-sized bit of White Lead
on a piece of charcoal or piece of
wood. Blow the flame against 1t and
see what 1t will do. II 1t Is pure
White Lead, little drops Of bright,
pure metallic lead will appear, and
with patience the White Lead can be
completely reduced to one globule of
metallic lead. This Is because pure
White Lead Is made from metallic
lead.
You may test dozens of other So
called White Leads and not be able
to reduce one of them to lead. II
they will not change wholly to lead,
but leave a residue, 1t is clear that
some adulterant is present.
If you should have your painting
done with such materials, no matter
how cheap they might seem, 1t would
be costly in the end
National Lead Company, Wood
bridge Building, New York City, are
sending on request blowpipe free
to any one about to have painting
done, so that the White Lead may be
tested. With 1t will be sent a hand
somely printed booklet having as its
frontispiece the Dutch Boy Painter"
reproduced from the original paint
ing. This little painter has become
noted as the guaranty Of pure White
Lead.

Nervousness.

Nervousness is often due to some
poison formed in the blood by the
decomposition of undigested food
in other words. often arises primar-
lily from indigestion.
Nervousness when due to this
cause may sometimes continue
through many years without causing
dangerous conditions. On the other
hand, nervous disturbances due to
this auto-intoxication or self-poison-
ing may be Immediately fatal.
Many people, however, suffer from
nervous indigestion" as they call
it, for 20 years or more without
fatal termination. In these cases
there is, of course, gradual weak
ening of the general system which
predisposes to many diseases and
death is always premature, usually
being traceable to what Is called
heart failure" Heath Culture.

Moth A HypnOtist.

Ibid you ever know" said the
hypnotist, as he played with Curl
Gus glittering hypnotzing machine
of crystal and silver, did you ever
know that hypnotism is practiced
among insects?
"Well, it is a fact A queen bee
can hypnotic her whole hive when
ever she wants to. She makes a
curious humming sound and within
a moment or two every bee in the
colony falls into a hypnotic trance.
1.-THE deaths head hawk moth is
also hypnotist Of great power.
This creature, indeed, makes It's liv-
ing out of hypnotism. Entering a
hive, 1t makes a sound not unlike
the queen bees note, and the bees
Immediately sinking into slumber,
the moth proceeds to plumber at its
leisure"

How Fast Wind Travels.

Most people at some time or other
have used the expression went like
the wind" wishing to convey the
idea of extraordinary velocity.
Coming down to actual figures,
however, the wind is not such a
speedy traveller after all. The month
of March, more than any other in the
year has windy record, SO the fig
ures supplied by the local weather
bureau station for the month just
ended will do to illustrate the fallacy
of the expression.
From the first to the thirty-first
the wind movement, as registered at
the top of the Federal Building, was
1886 miles. or an average of 278
miles day for 80 days. Here is
an average of only liz miles an
hour, speed which even slow
moving freight steamer approaches.
