Some DOn'ls for Men.


The Chicago Department of
Health is authority for the state
ment that "men coddle them
selves more than do women. J"
There is probably much truth IN
the observation; at least it is very
true that women are more care
less than men in the matter OF
protecting themselves against
the weather. For example, 10
man would walk about now In a
peekaboo waist and thin soled
low cut shoes. Women are dress
ing in exactly that fashion, and
men dressed in heavy clothir e
wonder whether the lightly clt d
women do not invite pneumon a
and many diseases that hay 9
their origin IN colds. But some
how the women are quite as
healthy as the men. Maybe the
Department is right and men
coddle theselves too much.
The same authority publishes
scme "pneumonla don'ts" for
men. Apparently the woman
need no warnings or advice Of
that character; at least none of
the "don 'ts" apply to hem direct
ly. Men are advised to avoid i'll
ventilated and foul smoking cars;
to keep their bedroom windows
open at night; to guard against
overeating, which SIS a particul
arly dangerous practice IN winter
time;" to avoid over indulgence
IN alcoholic drinks; and last, but
not least important, "don't be
draught crank, for you need all
the pure air you can get"
1t Will be observed that prac'
tically all of these don'ts apply
more directly to men than to wo
men; that is to say, women v!o-
late the lujunctions less often
and less habltually than do men.
Yet few women and fewer men
will agree with the Department
with regard to draughts. True
enough, everybody needs all the
air he can get. But exposure
TO draughts has sent many man
and woman 70 an untlmely grave.

Are you losing sleep either in

The first step IS to find the cause
of the trouble. 1t will almost in
variably be found to consist of
some violation of what Emerson
calls "the conduct of hfe." The
poor woman who works hard all
day burdened with a thousand
petty anxietles often takes her
worries With her to bed, only, of
course to make rest impossible
and to make herself less capable
of meeting the duties of the fol-
lowing day. Not long ago | was

The lneompact Horse Goes Down
Easily and Tires Early.

The ineompaet Horse Goes Down
Easily and Tires Early.
In all horses Of general utility the
quality known as cOmpactnesS Is the
primary requisite. No hunter can pos
sibly be good without It, no hack rides
well without II, no harness horse can
be properly balanced without compact
ness, and no Shire horse is worthy Of
its stable room and bulky forage with
out full development of this important
symmetrical characteristic. In horses
It is Of Overwhelming Importance. The
word compact means closely and firm
ly united, firm, solid. dense, structure
well connected. Its effect on the work
may be Illustrated by hypothetical
horse whose chief fault Is his incom-
pactness.
Imagine two men carrying long
ladder. The stumbling and falling OF
the front man cannot be prevented or
influenced by the hinder man. So
with the incompact horse whose long,
weak back sewers rather than unites
the connection between the two ends.
And with either fore leg In trouble
down he goes with such violence as
ruins him for life. Supposing the long
backed, weak horse escapes actual fall
or serious damage, he is still highly
incompetent, because he always goes
like falling, especially when tired. and
n very little work will induce this
early WEAKNESS. / suggest that own
ers and breeders should avoid this
most miserable type OF animal. His
hind legs are ever behind him In COM
pany with his tail, and his head be-
comes the fifth limb, which too often
props him up. This explains the ef-
fects Of incompactness.
How Horse Proves His Quality.
A short, strong back, with long quar-
ters and shoulders, will In well bred
animal produce action In principle not
unlike the kangaroo. Notice the horse
n harness. Driving last week my
good harness horse pulled hard. his
hind legs seeming to be ever forward,
and with wheeled dogcart he cheer
fully did each measured mile In less
than five minutes. He carried himself
Ou uis uiHu legs anu uuu lore IOOt
tripped the weight OF the frontage Of
the horse temporarily or momentarily
would have been borne by the hind
leg. The hind leg measures one inch
more than the fore. and 1t is much
more powerful. The muscles which
drive It are the most powerful in the
entire body. and the motor nerves
which convey their energies to these
muscles are the most important forces
In the entire animal. Compactness
would therefore save a horse from
falling, the hind leg alone coming to
the rescue.
This applies to all types Of light
horses. and cart horse is a bad walk
er unless the swing Of the hind leg
be long and good. In this respect ev-
cry horse proves his quality when
walking by planting his hind foot far
In front OF the fore foot print.-W. II.

What An Old Man Did.

The above heading Is intended
to remind the reader of what a
man can do If he tries.
Last Sunday, Rev. A. G.. B.
Powers, of Needmore, preached
at Sideling Hill Christian church
at II a. M, then went to the hos.
pitable home of e. r. Mellott, aft
er sharing a sumptuous dinner,
IN company with his wife, started
for Pleasant Grove. On arriving
at Sipes Mill postoffice, his wife
discovered that she had lost her
purse containing several dollars.
After searching the buggy and
not finding 1t, she said, snow
what shall we do about 1t ?" He
answered, "You dive back and
look for 1t, and 1 will walk to
Pleasant Grove" He left her at
2:15 and arrived at Pleasant
Grove at 3:10-a distance of about
four miles, the preacher being
past Ga years of age. After
preaching, he walked home near.
ly three miles, drove the COW
from pasture to the barn, fed the
fowls and hogs, then walked back
toward Slpes Null to meet his
wife. On meeting he., she IN
formed him that she had not
found the lost purse.
This story is given to show
what a man can do if he will try.
If the mem bers of the church
would be as perseverlng as the
preacher, 1t would be a growing
church. Why dlsappolnt the
preacher, when he strains every
nerve to meet his congregation.
Why don't the church member
who stays at home on Sunday
land perhaps sleeps the precious
time away read Proverbs 6:6 z 8
"Go to the ant, thou sluggard;
consider her ways and be wise;
which having no guide, overseer,
or ruler, provldeth her meat in
the summer, and gathereth her
food in the harvest.

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need a sufficient amount OF
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest 1t.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach IL
1t is weak.
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat sufiic-
lent amount Of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and 1t must I've digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do 1t,
you must take something that win
help the stomach.
The proper way TO do Is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol d.
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach Is weak 1t needs help;
you must help II by giving IL rest,
and Kodol will do that.
