Avoid Round Shoulders.

Are you letting yourself sag a bit
at the shoulders? Don't, if you want
to keep either young or well. There is
nothing so fatally easy as to grow
round-shouldered. Keep sharp
watch on yourself to prevent it. Each
morning stand up against the jamp
of a door and see If you have begun
to sag. Also walk around your room
each day with piece of broomstick
or short umbrella under your arm and
brought across the back. This keeps
the chest up and head well poised.
Deep-breathing exercises, whenever
you think of them, will help ward on
those round shoulders, also making a
practice to work with the chest up.
This last is the simplest of all pre-
ventives. for If it is always practiesd

CHAPTER xIv.-continued.

Behind her the door closed softly;
and there followed a thud as a bolt
was shot. An instant later Anisty
caught her by the arm and, roughly
now and without wasting speech, hur-
ried her into the next room. Then,
releasing her, he turned up the lights
and, passing to the windows, threw
two or three of them wide; for the
air in the room was stale and lifeless
"And now" said the criminal in a
tone of satisfaction, now we can talk
business, my dear"
He removed his overcoat and hat
throwing them over the back of a con
venient chair, drew his fingers
thoughtfully across his chin, and
standing at little distance, regarded
the girl with shadow of a saturnine
smile softening the hard line of his
lips.
She stood where he had left her, as
II volition was no longer hers. Hel
arms hung slack at her sides and she
was swaying a trifie, her face vacant
eyes blank; very near the breaking
down point.
The man was not without percep
ton; and recognized her state-on,
in which, he felt assured. he could ge
very little out of her. She must b.

A New One About Napoleon.

A new" story about Napoleon Is
necessarily doubtful; the probability
is that it is simply so old that it has
been forgotten. However, here is one
that Arthur M. Chuquet prints in
L'Opinion as never before published.
1t relatesto Napoleon and Butcher.
The emperor received the general
at the castle Of Finkenstein, while he
was preparing for the siege of Danzig.
He drew him to a window in an upper
story and paid him compliments on
his military gifts, and Butcher, going
away delighted, described the inter-
view to his aide-de-camp. What a
chance you missed" exclaimed the
latter.
you might have changed the whole
course of history"

out of the window"

Anisty stood over her, waiting with

A curious source Of wealth is re-
ported by the French consul at
Mongtze, in upper Tonkin. 1t lies In
wood mines. The wood originally was
q pine forest, which the earth swal-
lowed in some cataclysm. They lie
IN a slanting direction and in sandy
soil, which covers them to depth of
about eight yards. AS the top
branches are well preserved, It Is
thought the geological convulsion
which buried them cannot be of very
great antiquity. The wood furnished
by these timber mines is imperish-
able and the Chinese buy It for conins.
