physical exercise, is harmful, rather
than beneficial, II overdone A wise
walker will reach home pleasantly, not
painfully, fatigued. The beginner at
walking for recreation should attempt
no record-breaking tramps but should
accustom herself gradually to the exer
else. And to enjoy it one must walk to
somewhere, not tramp idly about with
no objective point. There may be some
pleasure In walking merely for walk
ing's sake, but the real relish lies in
carrying out planned excursion to
some spot Of interest. Under such con-
dltions the attention is fixed ahead and
not under ones feet.
Walking with a companion, even If
the companion is only a dog, is mitch
pleasanter than walking alone. Tramp

is like going to see a good play-it Is
pleasant to have someone at your elbow

good is seen.-Kansas City Star.

were even thriving in the streets of the
city and scattered about the country
were numerous bearing groves. These
were greatly admired by the Northern
tourists, who, although comparatively
small in number in those days, visited
the State annually and spent much of
the winter here. Along came the freeze
Of 1895 and wiped out OF existence
within one night practically every
orange tree then growing in or near the
city. The cold wave not only wrought
havoc here, but entered the very heart
of the State, nipring and damaging
tender vegetation. Since the freeze no
effort to restore tropical fruit trees
here has been made, it being contended
by many that the tender plants could
not withstand the occasional cold and
that any effort put forth in the direc-

cold are the eyes closed and water

from the eyes, running at the nose.
II neglected 1t may take a worse form.
1'nis may come from exposure TO damp

badly ventilated houses, or from a
change from roosting In the open to
warm or closed house. To cure this,
first remove the cause, then feed equal
parts Of red pepper and mustard in

Roup has a distinguishing mark that
