Here is what one of the doctors s have to say about the Holsman auto- mobile.
 - ' 2. Chicago, H., Jan. 26, 1905.
 "After running one of your aut0mO- piles in my practice of medicine since last July, feel as if l should give you a letter of thanks for the great service it has done me. During the past four years l have run three other gasoline machines, all of which were failures. They had too great weight, complica- ted machinery and pneumatic tires, any one of which is sufficient to make a machine impracticable. l feel a great relief from trouble in running your machine. The light weight, the high wheels, the noiseless ropes, the simplicity, the perfect air cooling system. and the greatest of all the ab- sence of pneumatic tire expenses and trouble. make for your machine, in my estimation, the greatest advance in automobiling yet made by any one. l have recommended all my friends to buy them for business or pleasure and I find that all who have done so are equally well pleased as myself. My operating expenses and repair bills are less than keeping one horse while my service is more than three horses could possibly do. l thank you again for the great saving of expense and high service l have derived from your machine.

FAMOUS PAINTING
TO Be SHOWN HERE
Next Sunday, Masterpiece of
Sir Joshua Reynolds Will
Be at the Exhibit.
IT is AN ORIGINAL ONE.
THE HISTORY SURROUNDING THE
PICTURE is OF MUCH INTER-
EST-THE CANVAS is HEAVILY
INSURED.

At the art exhibit Sunday afternoon
between the hours of two and six,
there will be on exhibition one of the
greatest masterpieces in America. 1t
is the study of a child by the brush of
that great English master, Sir Joshua
Reynolds This painting is the prop
vile, O.
The officers of the Richmond Art
Association had great difficulty in OBJ
tanning the loan of this masterpiece
but after persistent efforts Mrs. Safer
consented to exhibit it here for a few
hours next Sunday, When the Rey-
nOlds canvass is brought to Rich
mOnd, it will be insured for $4,000
The canvass has a unique history.
The subject Of the painting is a
child Of a Mr.. Nelson who was a
friend of Sir Joshua Reynolds and an
artist Of some note at that time The
painting remained in England with
the Nelson family for some years
then about fifty years ago it was
brought to this country by descend
ant Of the Nelson above named Up
on his arrival in New York he exhib-
tied the painting together with a
number of other paintings. at which
time he was offered a large sum for
the Reynolds, but refused to part with
it. Nelson having relatives in Green
vile, Ohio, moved to that place, but
died shortly thereafter leaving a son
to whom the property passed. The
son, Mr.. Arthur Nelson. being also in
poor health. moved to some point in
the west to recupcrate, but leaving
the painting behind in the possession
of a friend, Mrs. Eliza Farrar of Green
Vile, with the request that she should
keep il until he should call for it and
in the event he should not return. the
painting should be hers. He failed to
return and his death was learned a
number OF years ago. Mrs. Eliza Far
rar having died, the painting became
the property Of her daughter and the
present owner Mrs. J. w. Safer, of
Greenville, Ohio. The picture was on
exhibition in Chicago some time ago.
at which time it was inspected by the
Chicago Art League through a com
mittee appointed for that purpose. and
declared to be a genuine painting. ex-
ecuted by the English painter. Sir

beauty and priceless value

HEALTH AND HABITS.
Tissue Ircome and Expenditure Must
BE Made to Balance.

The day must come at some future
period Of sociological development
when the instinct of self preservation
will overrule the pernicious habits and
customs of the present day fashions
and necessity. Men will come to learn
that tissue income and expenditure
must be adjusted to better balance if
the human machine IS to be kept in
smoothly working order: that excess of
either is a physiological sin which ma
turc will surely avenge either on the
individual or on his descendants; that
sustained work of the best quality can
only be performed when effort is kept
we'll within the margin of accomplish
ment; that luxurious idleness and arti-
fetal excitement, when carried beyond
the limits of Il healthy cOunterpoise to
the daily routine Of active duty, bring
about their neurasthenic nemesis as
surely as OverStrenuOuS endeavOr, and
that the coming generation can be fit
ted to battle with the increasing COM
pleXities of life only If endowed with
bodies shat are structuralIy perfect
and with nervous Centers capable of
ton Of life sufficient energy to enable
the machine to perform satisfactorily
the work wheretO it has been set.
A more vigorous public sentiment,
fOStercd by an example of greater self
denial and more rigid adherence to
simplicity of life on the part of those
who set the pace and lead the fashions
Of the day, would do much to arrest
the dOwnhill rush Of the multitude ;
pronounced social disapprOval of the
immoderate use of alcohol and tobacco
and the stern forbiddng of both under
the age of puberty would shield the
nervous centers from two of their most
deadly enemies, and, though it might
at first CRATE against popular feeling,
the Introduction by the legislature Of
an enactment whereby some form of

CHlLDREN'S GAMES.

The game OF hare and hounds origi-
mated in England about 1910.
LeapfroG is mentioned in the works
of both Shakespeare and Johnson.
The game of hide and seek came
from Europe about the beginning Of
the seventeenth century.
Blind mans buff found its origin
with the Greeks, among whom it was
often INDUCED in by adults.
Skipping rope is a childish pastime
of ancient origin. In place of rope a
vine stripped of leaves was originally
used.
The spinning of tops came from the
Greeks. Records show that this kind
of fun was in vogue at the time of
Virgil
Kite flying is about two centuries Old
in Europe. Probably it originated in
China. where the practice of flyinS
kites is very ancient.
The game of seeing who can hop the
longest on one foot came from tho
ancient Greeks, among whom il was
practiced by the youths for wagers.
