Acquire Poise in Walking.

The first essential of graceful walk
ing is poise. The weight of the body
must be adjusted over the balls of the
feet In correct poise, the chest al
ways leads, the abdomen recedes, the
back and head assume their right po-
sitions. 1t goes without saying that
there can be no grace in a hasty walk.
Haste causes irregular and uncertain
movements of the body, detracts from
a woman's dignity and makes rhythm
impossible.
Activity and right use of the feet
are the second essential to . graceful
walk The feet have a double duty to
perform bearing the weight and
propelhng the body. When the stand
ing position is right, one leg is swung
forward from the nip, the knee acting
in harmony, and The tall Of the foot
touching rrst. The weight is so quick
~ transferred that the heel makes no
noise. Women who walk heavily
leave the weight on the heel and are
never graceful. The general saying
that one should walk on the balls of
the feet" has led some people to try
not touching the heel at all The re-
suit is a mincing gait wholly without
dignity or grace
The position of the feet should be
straight The weight of the body be-
ing on one foot, while the other is
swinging forward, the strongest posi-
ton should be taken, which is practi-
cally straight As children are always
taught to turn their toes out, " this
viii surprise many.
The carriage Of the shoulders is an
important element in graceful walking.

tax levied upon corporations as sucn,
because corporations enjoy certain
privileges and advantages that partner
ships and private firms do rot possess.
But if this theoretical or legal point is
the real basis of the impost, there can
be no just grounds for exempting from
the burden of the tax, all those corpor-
atoms, which. though enjoying the full
privileges of the corporation laws, do
not show on their balance sheets net
profit. 1t would be easy to find hun
dreds of incidents in which two neigh
boring corporations Of similar capitali-
cation, similar opportunities, and per-
haps even similar amounts Of gross
income have very different net earn
ings. Through different policies, or
different methods of management,
the one corporation yields a large net
income and pays dividends, while the
other seems not 10 be producing any
net income at all and pays no dividends.
Yet in reality the one is just as able to
pay taxes as the other. There is no
reason why the general conditions un-
der which these two rival institutions
do business should be made unlike to
the taxing power. Taxation should be
in the nature of one of the fundament-
al expenses of both of the competing
corporations. From '"The Progress of
the World, in the American Review
of Reviews for August

Oil Wild.

The Salem Qll) Republican of July
22nd, sent to this office by Mrs. PEBBLES.
recently of this city, contains the fol-
loving:
1.-The citizens of Sandoval and 0din
are oil wild, and the field in Marion
county promises to equal if not surpass
the wonderful Crawford-Lawrence
county field. The field is attracting visi-
tors and oil men from all sections OF the
country and private homes and hotels
are crowded to their capacity. Men are
going lease mad and some fabulous sums
are being paid for various buildings.
Although Odin is further from the
field than Sandoval it seems that the
former village is to be the real center
of operations. Rents are going up every
day in the little village. Property values
are soaring and business rooms that
have been idle for months are being
put in condition for occupancy. Farmers
in that vicinity have been made fatter-
ing offers for their land but many are
holding off for better offers which are
likely to follow soon. -

Constitutional Amendment.

There are two ways of proposing a
mendments to the constitution of the
United States.
If two-thirds of both houses of con-
gress vote favorably on such propo-
sition, the amendment suggested is
submitted to the state legislatures for
consideration.
Or, if the legislatures of two-thirds
of the states make the request for
convention to consider amendments,
congress must call such convention.
In either case, if the legislatures of
three-fourths Of the states, or conven-
tons in three-fourths Of them, favor
the proposed amendment, then it be-
comes part of the constitution with
the same force as if it were part of
the original document
The secretary Of state has just sent
word to the governors of the states
that congress has followed the first me-
thod of procedure in connection with a
proposed income tax amendment.
The governors were asked to submit
the proposed amendment to the state
legislatures for their consideration. So
that the idea is now squarely before the
country in constitutional form.
Some legislatures are biennial and
will hold no sessions during the winter
Of l9O9-'lO. No final action can be
taken, therefore, before the close Of
the legislative sessions Of l9l0-'1.
That gives plenty Of time for careful
consideration of the question and for
the widest possible discussion by legis-
lators, press and people generally.
History has proved that it is no easy
task to secure the favoring vote of
three-fourths of the states in favor Of
a constitutional change.
Entirely apart from the consideration
of the subject matter Of the proposed
tax amendment, the path toward adop-
ton is one beset with difficulties.
The constitution has been essentially
modified by the addition OF many things,
sometimes described as 1.-THE unwritten
constitution, but the unwillingness to
change the text itself has been noted
all the way along.

A Girls Education.

Milwaukee News.
A hard road and strange way has
Evelyn Thaw travelled. Coached by a
foolish mother to marry money,
thrust into the glare of the footlights
while a girl not out of her teens, lured
away and pampered by an idle-rich
sport whose hands had never touched
work and whose heart never knew a
real aspiration, destined to be the CEN
trial woman of wild, bloody tragedy,
day after day facing lawyers, reporters,
iuries and curious mobs at about the
age college girls take their degrees,
she has passed through a remarkable
formative period, an exceptional
educational period.
IL education for life consists of con-
tact with realities, Evelyn Thaw has
had iucaton. Love, depravity, folly,
law. death, insanity she has been close
to them all. These considerations JUS
tify look at her life-philosophy as
recently expressed,

Whatever wrong things she may have
done in the past, this girl has some
conception of high life and simple life
that would do credit to many who look
down on her. She is not the recipient
of any special laurels in these days,
but a little more hope for her and a
little more belief in her can do no
harm Let him who is without guilt
cast the first stone.

w. ID. Taylor IN the Wisconsin Engineer,
| sometimes think that our high
schools, which are so largely taught by
women, and where the number of fe-
male teachers is generally about three
to one, are more potent in robbing
young men of real manliness than any
other cause. A graduate of an average
high school is really graduate of a
female seminary. A recent critic says
that the average high school graduate
has learned from his associates at
school about enough to become MILF
ner or dressmaker and that is about
all. Look up some of the recent
writings and speeches of the leading
psychologist in America, DR.. Stanley
Hall, and you will be surprised to see
what such an authority as he thinks is
the effect on our young men of our
taught high schools. DIR. Hall
is quoted as saying that when mother
has brought her son to the age of IA,
she ought to unite her apron strings
from around him and hand him over to
his father and say, Here is our SON.

have seen the constant expression of
praise for Doan' Kidney Pills, and read
about the good works they have done
in this locality. Not another remedy
ever produced such convincing proof of
merit.

Lancaster, Wis, says: 81 suffered Sc

took many remedies but did not succeed
in getting relief. At last Doan's Kid

She and Mrs. Brennum were returning
from picking berries and had reached
the barn on their return trip when they
noticed a runaway team attached to a
mower coming in their direction. Mrs.
Brennum succeeded in getting out of
the way of the horses. but Mrs. Ander-

pounds, was not 50 quick and attempted
to take refuge in the barn. While at
tempting to push the sliding door open
the door came off the wheels and fell
over upon her, directly in the path of
the team. Mrs. Anderson was caught
by the sickle guards and was carried on
the mower about forty rods when the
team came to a stop in ditch. Mrs.
Anderson was cut and bruised in an
awful manner, and it is said that over
ten pounds of flesh were torn from her
body. She was taken to the house and
