Pay As You Go.
If You Don't Live Right You
Will Lose Your Good Health.

There are certain things which men
do which are thought to be harmful
There are excuses of feeding, and
drinking, and dressing, and playing
You may not believe you are paying as
you go-paying in loss of health-but
you are and soon your cheeks fade
and your bright eyes are dull, your
sweet breath of youth is tainted, your
soft, smooth skin, rough and dry Ma
ture is collecting her due-you are pay
ing as you go.
Take account of yourself. Live right,
breath right think right eat right.
You owe it to yourself and the world
to do your work with your utmost
capacity. You can't do it on or with
a sour stomach. impure blood or tired
brain. Eat right and you'll sleep right
Do both right and you'll work right.
Work right and you'll succeed largely
Meats and rich foods do not start the
day well. Make your breakfast of &c
Corn Flakes or Egg-O-See Wheat
Flakes-always ready to serve, easy
to digest, ample in muscle and nerve
building, sufficient in vitalizing force.
Remember it's the wonderful Egg-O-
See process that makes them so good
to eat.

to make the improvements gradually
through the summer. So the painters
are giving it a coat of white, the car
penters are busy providing means fOl
increasing the comfort of the passen

ions that will confront him will be
whether he wants 70 go down in history
9s a quiet, reposeful. dignitary or as
the exponent Of thu strenuous life The
s5iDt committee on the Library Of Con-
gress has decided that the bust that will
represent the former President and Vice
President in the Senate chamber Is TO be
one pictCring the Senate's once pre-
siding officer in a non-strenuOus at
titude. The committee takes this &C
ton after q deliberation OF several
months. Several sets Of pictures of
plaster cast busts have been submitted
TO II for inspection and Il was not until
a few days ago that il was able to get
what 1t thought was the correct ex-
preston Of the former Vice President
The committee members compared the
strenuous pose with that Of the 0uiAs-
cent one, and have decided that Il would
be more in keeping with the dignity
Of the office and with the other busts
The sculptor. James Earl Frasier. Of
New York, at first conceived the former
Vice President in a very progressive
pose, firm jaw, well set forward. and
the expression OF the face in true siren
uous style, by which ne was fau1iliarIv
known, but the more recent bust whici,
mas been selected by the committee and
Elliott Woods, Superintendent of the
Capitol, pictures Colonel Roosevelt in
quieter and less strenuous mood.
Ihe bust which will be executed in
marble, should II meet the approval OF
MI Roosevelt, VIII be placed in one Of
the inches In the gallery OF the Sen
ate chamber: It viii probably be the

will be exhibited in public.
