In today's issue we present new
feature in connection with the Pony

no incentive to subscribe for longer
period than one year The personal
friends of a contestant often wish to
make an extra effort for their favor
lite, By this method one will receive
10000 extra votes on a ten-year sub
scriptlon.
We believe the contestants will find
this the best vote getter we have Of
fered, Now is the time to get busy
and make the closing days of the con-
test a regular whirlwind.
1t does not pay to quit, whether be-
hind or in the lead; as the race Is
never over until the last vote is count
ed. We have been asked who would
win Toga and Teddy. We do not
know any more about it than you do
We do know who has worked the
hardest, but the friends of the con-
testants are always an unknown
quantity. To what extent they will
rally to the support of the opposing
contestants in the last hours cannot
be foretold by anyone.
For subscriptions taken for either

cording to the following schedule:

muscle of the whole body tense as you
do this, and press as II your life de-
pended on it. Relax the grip slowly,
and tighten it again, equally slowly.
Do this 20 times the first day, increas-
ing by two a day until you get it up to

If you will carry around in your hands
two sheets of newspaper thus crum-

them every few minutes, you will
quickly develop a phenomenal
strength of finger and a strong fore
arm. Carry these wads on your walks
and on all occasions when your hands

br TArSON sCnT1SiNG'

ing World, Author of Muscle
Building etc.
The most important detail to re-
member in taking up athletics Is the
fact that you will improve only as long
as you keep your entire mind on what
you are doing. You can stand and
swing %dumb-bells or pull. at chest
weights for an hour at a time and If
your mind is elsewhere all the exer-
else will not do you an atom of good.
Did you ever see a boy in school sit
ting with his book held up in front of
him, merely trying to deceive the
teacher into the idea that he was
busy? Well, that boy gained fully as
much knowledge from the book he was
not reading as you will get from ath-
letic exercises into which you do not
put your whole heart and soul. The
boy who pretends to study when he is
really loafing is d~ishonorable toward
his teacher. The would-be athlete who
does not put his mind on his work is
acting dishonorably toward all that is
best in his physical makeup.
Rolandow, who Is, with the possible
exception Of Sandow, the strongest
living man, declares this mental con-
centration is the whole secret of ath-
letic prowess. He says he owes his
evolution from a nervous weakling in
to a giant to the fact that he put all
his heart into every athletic exercise
he went through.
There is much truth in what he
says, and on somewhat the same idea
is based more thar n of the get
strong methods taught by the vari-
GUS physical culture professors who
advertise in many of the papers.

THE BOUDOIR
Leather and Wicker Work
Furnishings Coming
Into Greater Vogue
Thar Ever

Furnishings, ornaments and really
useful things are done this season,
for the first time, in a combination of
rattan and skin that Is most attrac-
tive, all colors and shades being
shown, so that there will be no diff
ficulty In matching the girls favorite.
Among them are the q~uaintest foot
stools, rather low and long. fashioned
on colonial lines. They have handles,
like rounds, at either end on the top;
there are little legs, and the surface
On which to rest the feet is done in
Russia leather. These stools are in
red, tans, blues. yellows and the like,
the leather in all cases matching the
rattan.
For the girls parasols and UNI
brellas there are most fascinatin3
stands woven in wicker, with finish
OF leather. They are about three
feet high, and are square rather than
round. From the wooden bottom
they flare gracefully at the top, and
the back Is about two inches higher
than the front. 1t Is not only useful
but extremely smart looking, making
the prettiest possible receptacle for
dainty parasols.
Some collar boxes attract attention
because of their new shape. Neither
round nor oval, they come nearer to
being oblong. and the outside is beau,
tifully polished wicker. The cover is
removable-that is to say, 1t has no
hinge. but a silk cord fastened to the
inside Of the center at the bottom
ends in a similar place on the cover.
The inner finish Is leather, CORE
spending to the outside in color, and
a leather piping is visible from with
out on the W edge. Glove boxes
are similar except in shape.
For the girl who zoe away to
make visits there are the most fas-
clnatfng medicine cases to put in her
trunk. In size they vary from eight
to IL inches in length and from five
to seven In width. The top turns
back like an old-fashioned workbox,
to show a soft leather padded in.

ivory spoon for medicine, a dropper,

useful for cutting a small bandage or
plaster.
Within the bottom of the case are
a small glass, a tiny serviette, several
empty bottles, silver topped, and a
couple of small boxes to be used for
powder.
Anything more lovely and smart
looking that the new writing tables
done in wicker and leather is not to
be imagined. The table itself is
wicker, most graceful as to line.
Across the back is a set of pigeon
holes, the whole being severely plain
and leather finished, but beautiful be-
cause of the material, polish and
shade.
The actual table top is also wicker,
but attached to it are two leather
flaps, only sufficiently smaller to give
an effect of wicker edging. These
open back from the middle to show a
large blotter mounted in leather.
