Health.

The body has rights. and we have
duties toward It. The body Is the life
long companion of the mind, and It
cannot be unimportant how 1t il
treated.
One unbridled passion is enough to
destroy the beauty of life One excess,
II it does no more, can mar the grace
and harmony of the whole. He that
striveth for the mastery must be tenn
perate in all things"
The duty of wise care for health
is bigger than merely adding to our
personal happiness. To large extent
1t determines the efficiency of our
lives. Many man learns after It is
too late that he would have been at
for better and more work If he had
always preserved the sane and sensi-
BILE bearing toward the laws of health
and life which experience teaches.
No one in these days has any excuse
for ignorance of the common prac-
teal rules Of health. There are q
good many popular books on the sub.

Now They Sleep Inside.

George H. Beattie. jeweler in the
old Arcade, and L. e. Ralston, auditor
of the News, have Jointly and several
ly decided that sleeping out in the
open isn't all that 1t has been declared
to be, says the Cleveland Leader. They
were both in deep snooze out at the
Beattie farm, near Chagrin Falls, the
other night, when a runaway team
from the county fair city turned into
the lane leading up to the Beattie es-
tate and came along at full speed
Sound asleep, but dreaming of i'm
pending danger, Ralston rolled out Of
his cot toward the north, and Beattie
from his cot toward the south. The
runaway horses dashed between the
sleepers. overseeing everything in the
way, but missing Beattie and Ralston
by margins too narrow to be meas
ured. Since that night Ralston has
slept in his town house and Beattie
has found shelter under the ample
roof of his house on his big planta-

LITTLE KNOWN BLACK RACE
American Consul at Lorenzo Marques
Tells interesting story About
People Of Angoche.

An interesting story is told by the
American consul at Lorenzo Mar
ques about the little known people in
the Angoche, East Africa, who were
recently visited for the first time by
Europeans. The Europeans visited
village, where the tents were sur
rounded by hundreds Of blacks,
many of whom had never seen a
white man. When a chief was pre-
sented, the white strangers were in
formed that a drink might be Of
fered him. This being done, the
glass was quietly handed to the court
faster, who, blandly taking the risk
of poison, promptly drained it,
whereupon the chief took the bottle.
Among the women of Angoche, it is
customary to paint the face with a
peculiar paste that stays cold on the
face for hours, and that, when dry,
turns a dazzling white. AS the ex-
petition was about to start from a
village, the women and sightseers
crowded in closer and closer, and q
baby, seeing a white man for the
first time, burst into shrieks of ter
ror. A penny was thrown to the
baby, and Immediately every mother
started pinching her offspring to
make it cry.

MOST BEAUTIFUL OF WOMEN
Tohuana Beauties Who Might Serve
as Types OF Physical
Perfection.

The woman of Tehuantepec is the
wonder of the land. From Rangoon
right around to Tifis 1 have never
seen her like, E. Alexander Powell
writes in Everybody's. The Circas-
sian women have more lustrous
eyes, it is true, and. the Cingalese
are a whit more willowy of figure
but Miss Tehuana of Tehuantepec,
take her by and'large, combines more
physical attractions than any other
woman that | know. When have
said that these Tehuana women COM
bine the figure of an Annette Keller
man with the face and features of a
Ruth st. Denis and the dignity and
carriage of a Mary Garden, l have
need to say but little further in
their praise. Mesdames Garden
Kellerman and st. Denis are, in
fact, the ones who may feel compli.
mented by the comparison.
They are olive-skinned, are these
Tehuana women, with a soft rose
showing through; their eyes are big
and dark and sparkling-just sucf
eyes as the Dolores should have who
swings in a hammock under the
palms; their features are perfect anC
so are their teeth, which are KEEP
as clean and white as though they
were intended for tooth-powder ad
vertisement. Of statuesque build
but of little more than medium stat
ure, with great masses Of blue-blacl
hair, exquisite limbs and smalles
feet, they seem made for artists
models. If these women were t,
mate with Cretan men, we SHOULD
have a race of demigods again.

SEEN FROM UP IN THE AIR
Johnstone,, Who Has Been Higher Up
Than Anyone Else, Says Earth
Looked ConcaVe.

Johnstone, who has been higher
up in the air with a clear view be-
meath than any other human being
of whom we know, declares that the
earth presented to him the appear
ance of a great concave bowl in
stead of appearing as the outside OF
a globe. We do not know that there
was anything the matter with John
stones eyes, and presume that the
earth would present the same con-
cave appearance to anybody else who
happened to be a couple of miles up
in the air looking down. '7-'-o~
We call attention to the matter
only to emphasize the importance OF
the old adage relative to not be-
lieving all that you see. Proving
that the earth is round by noting the
disappearance of ships over the hori-
zon is just as likely to be erroneous
as proving the earth concave because
it looked that way to Johnst6ne, and
Johnstone had a better chance to see
the earth than any man who has
gone before. The eye at the best is a
treacherous organ, not to be trusted
at all in many cases, easily fooled, as
Edison proved so ably when he dis
covered the secret of moving pic
tures.-Charleston News and Cour-

noon. Then she turned away.
