to be considered by the present

sensibly and correctly took the
position that the lumber industry

the lumber men to understand
that his vote would be against
placing a tariff on it. Nothing

cooPER-cARMAck TRIAL

In the trial of the Coopers and
John Sharp at Nashville for the
killing of Ex-senator Carmack,
the State Of Tennessee presents
a most grotesque side of juris-
prudence. It's rules of evidence,
its admission of testimony and
its charges to the jury are not
in keeping with the established
rule and the laws observed by
the states. The character of
the defeA liant from the cradle to
the CRAWL is dragged into the
trial as well as any extraneuos
matter which either side feels
inclined to introduce.
The law and the lawyers are
revelations to the outside world

ART OF WALKING GRACEFULLY.
Physical Exercises Are Important, but
Development Must Be Har-
monious.

Let any ten women walk across

and l will tell you blindfolded
which are the ones who have looked
after the health of their muscles and
which have not Those who have
kept themselves in good trim will
have a crispness of step which is I'M
mistakable to the trained ear. Those
who have not will have what / call
dOpy step'-a dull flop of the foot,
or a drag. which is evidence as read
able as Holy Writ that they have
neglected the body at its most i'm
portant point
A careful watch of the expression
of ones own walk will testify to the
truthfulness of this statement, and if
At the bad times We look at our
faces in mirror We will notice that
every feature of it looks as old or as
dull as the walk seems.

then. physical exercises are impor-
tant, but to have any great value
i'm that direction the development
must be harmonious. In other words.
the body must be taught to move and
carry its various parts with perfect
balance and equilibrium, and not
show merely bunch of hard muscles
somewhere or other.
Walking about the room on the
balls of the feet while dressing is a
fine leg exercise, and the following
breathing and arm exercise will ex-
pand the chest, harden the bust and
correct round shoulders:
Let the arms hang with a dead
iimpness for a moment, withdrawing
with a mental effort all force from
them. Then lift the hands, place
them palm to palm and interlace the
thumbs. Then raise the hands
straight up over the head, at the
same time inhaling deeply Count
five while the arms are in this posi-
ton and hold the breath; then lower
the arms slowly and exhale COM
pletely.
Repeat this exercise night and
morning six times, and vary it some
times by holding the breath at the
time of lowering the arms and letting
it out after they are down.
Finally, let me say that to walk
gracefully is one of woman's most
important accomplishments, for. no
matter how fair the body may be,
it loses its right to charm when
walking movements are unbeautiful
So, if you have no time or taste for
other exercises. practice the mere art
of walking gracefully, take the prac-
tice stroll outdoors and breathe deep
iy as you take it. The fashionable
step is rather long than short, the
abdomen is held well in, the head
high, the shoulders back, the chest
out. and there is faint hint, as the
lady moves. that she is walking
mostly upon the balls of the feet.
