There are variety of these exercises
which you can try for yourself, finding
those which do the most good. While
doing them practice slow and deep
breathing. You will feel very tired and
probably dizzy when you first begin;
therefore do only few at time, and
those slowly, then increase them as you
do them more easily. Those who sit all
day at work will find such exercise es-
peciallyN beneficial. In order to obtain
results, be systematic and persistent, for
it is only in this way that you can ac-
complish results.

Is the case by feeling through the
flesh to get the outline of the bones. If
the size is due to large and faring hip
bones, it is of course impossible to do
anything toward reduction; but, as l
have already intirnated, such condition
would be well-nigh unique, The large
hips due to accumulation of flesh can be
remedied and should be, but it will re-
quire persistence and patience. Many
who have large hips, indeed most, are
feshy and large in every part of the
body, and especially about the waist; and
in order to make themselves look smaller
they draw the corset lacings tight and
the flesh is squeezed out below the cor
sets, giving unsightly large hips, which
aTe far more ugly than large waist, as
the bodily symmetry is destroyed.
Therefore, the next thing to do, after
having determined the condition of the
bony framework, is to see how much the
enlargement of the hips is due to lac
ing or wearine tight corsets, and then it
will be found that the problem is one of
reducing the flesh about the waist, alb
domen and the hips, for it is only in a
few instances where the deposit Of flesh
is upon the hips alone, although there
are few such cases. If after this in
vestigation you find that the large hips

Seven DRAINS Of Radlum.

A value Of GA a milligram (equiva-

placed on radium by a contract just
entered into between the British me-
talllferous mines and Lord Iveagh
and Sir Ernest Cassel for the supply
of 71k grams (rather more than
quarter of an ounce) Of pure radium
bromide. This very large order for
radium will be supplied from the
above named company's mine near
Grampound road in Cornwall. In the
short history OF radium there has
never hitherto been known any great

colored order on a large scale VIII

WeIIman and Andre.

Geese are poor producers, where
the mating has been deferred until

fall-mated birds that have become ac-

CAUSE AND CURE FOR GAPES.
In answer to an inquire to his Of
fee, Prof II. A. Surface, OF the De-
partment OF Agriculture, OF Pennsyl-
vania, gives the following suggestions
as to the cause of gapes in chickens
and some remedies therefor:
"Gapes in little chickens are caused
by the eating of earth-wOrms. There
are parasites in the earth-worms
which find their way into the wind
pipe OF the chicken and lodge there.
where they take the form of little
red worms. The best preventive Is
to keep the chickens from the sur
face OF the ground; or use salt or
strong salt water on the soil, so as
to kill the earth-worms; or strew
strong lime or something Of the kind
on the ground, so that the chicks will
not get hold of the worms to eat
them.
After the chicks have been attack
ed with gapes, however. you can dis
lodge the worms by making a very
small loop in a twisted horse hair.
draw out the tongue OF the chick
slightly, insert the horse hair loop in
the windpipe opening. which will be
seen between the forks at the base o.
the tongue, and, twisting the hair
around, withdraw It. The worms are
likely to be found within the loop, or
some of them will have been thus
removed. and the operation can be re-
peated.
Another remedy is to dip the tip
of a soft feather into kerosene and
insert 1t in the windplpe opening to
dislodge and kill the worms. Such
treatment, although severe. Is better
than letting the worms remain undts'
turbed, 10 severely annoy the fowls
and-eyen kill them. ......
Mixing turpentIne or other sub
stances in the food OF the young poul-
try has not proven satisfactory as a
remedy nOr gapea."

Dobbins had 70 men and 76 mules ac- tually engaged in building d ditch Much more would have been done by this time. only that the need of mules to haul sugar beets became so urgent that work at Marinette had to be abandoned. or at least greatly dimin- ished until after the sugar campaign. The mules are now back on the mesa again. and everything will be hasten ed toward the completion of the canal and the construction of the head and dam. while the land is being cleared for planting.
 What this enterprise means for Phoenix need not be long dwelt upon. The discerning reader will see for himself Marinette is destined to be a fine valley town. but will never even hope to be a metropolis nor care to be. IL is on what Is soon to be a main line railroad point. and is within an hour of Phoenix by automobile. In fact. it has been made by machine in much less than an hour, and MT. Dobbins says he has come from the canal head in a little more than an hour. Briefly stated. the prosperity of Marinette means added prosperity for Phoenix. for it will be strictly suburban val ley town of peace and plenty.

STONE IN KIDNEY

An interesting case was that of MT. H. L. McDuffee. a member of the firm of H. c. De Wolfe & Co. of the Crock CT Building. San Francisco.
 The case was puzzling. There was pain in the kidney with a showing of blood Examination by seven physi- clans proved that the blood was from the kidneys. and it was the opinion of all that there was a stone cutting the kidneys. as the least exercise caused a showing of blood.
 Four X-Ray pictures were taken. three of them showing a stone half an inch in diameter. To be certain that 1t was a stone that cast the shadow. a similar stone about the size taken from a patient was put under him for comparison-both stones showing on the plate.
 An operation was about decided upon when Fulton's Renal Compound was recommended to Mir. McDuffee. He feared the knife and gave it a trial.
 Within ten weeks the blood and pain had ceased and in six months he con sidered himself we'll
 We also have a three page letter from an old school physician. a lec- turer in one of the San Francisco Medical Colleges. covering a similar case of stone in the kidney. An oper- ation seemed inevitable.
 He prescribed Fulton's Renal Com pound upon the theory that as it was getting results in Nephritis it ought to have some effect to reduce the in flammation and excessive uric acid that attends Calculus. He was so sur prised to get complete recovery that he thought a record ought to be made of it and gave us the letter above re ferred to.
 Fulton's Renal Compound seems to have about the same percentage of eff ficiency in stone in the kidney that 1t has shown in Bright's Disease.
