&c LII things come to him who waits"
n was a maxim of Horace Walpole.
"A The famous litterateur would
have won fame it he had left to posterity
no other legacy.
We see It fulfilled every day. Tile that
has patience may compass anything"
says the able RRbelais. The case OF
Edward Ray makes his words good.
Blind and deaf. this American at thirty
four is preparing to enter the University
OF Southern California for his fourth
academic degree,
lie is probably the best educated blind
man I'm the country. Already he has won
His supreme ambition is a seat in the
United States Senate.
Greater than his college degrees Is his
mastery of himself. lie has won a
triumph through the art OF application.
His sight was lost when he was ten
years old, but he kept his grip on cour-
age. lie conquered algebra. keeping no
tation by driving holes through paper
with a peg He made geometry and cal
culus his own, and by learning the
method by which logarlthms are COM
puted he saved himself endless memo
rizing.
At the University OF North Carolina
he was advised to drop out. but refused
students took turns in reading TO him.
and he finished in three years and with
honors the four-year course.
He arrived IN Cambridge with less than
ten dollars. but patience was with him.
and he made money by lecturing, and
his NJ \. by determination and study.
From Harvard he went 10 the Univer-
sity OF Chicago for the degree OF doctor
OF philosophy. There he received a sec
ond staggering blow. lie lost his hear
ing, but holding still his patience he en-
tered the University OF Chattanooga and
was graduated last June as bachelor OF
laws.
Is there any doubt that this man win
eventually sit in tas upper chamber at
Washington?
The beauties Of nature arc hidden from
his eyes, the voices OF his fellows he will
hear no more; but In his mind are stored
the glories Of the universe and the songs
OF the ages.
His progress is a living lesson to the
fortunate. We do not appreciate our
gifts until we lose them

each Of them, for they come from an
unquestioned authority. But one OF
the latest deductions is Of the most
practical value to women. That is
the conclusion that the cause Of su-
perfuous flesh in the woman of thirty
and the cause of superhuous flesh in
women Of forty ~ different. In
other words thirty fat and "forty
fat are of different origin, and be-
ing Of different origin are Of differ
ent kind and cure.
Let me make this seemingly murkY
fact as clear as possible. A woman
between twenty-five and thirty be-
gins to acquire plumpness. Her fig
ure takes on what novelists call vol
uptuous curves, but what everyday
persons classify as fat. She sup
poses that these additional and pro-
nounced curves are a sign of health
and this impression is deepened by
insincere persons who say to her
face How well you are looking"

has some form OF Indigestion, either
gastric, intestinal or relating to the
liver. Professor Heckel gives 20
such cases, and recommends, the
practice Of muscle cure. For these
women he advises exercises 18th pull
leys, but he limits the weight Of
these to four pounds. Serious injury
may result from a woman using too
heavy weights for exercises. Having
faced the pulley and drawn the
handles down and up ten times,
counting each movement, turn your
back and draw the handles up and
down again ten times. Then re-
verse the body and repeat the ex-
ercise. Continue this until the
muscles begin to feel tired. Open
the window OF the room in which
you are exercising and breathe
deeply and regularly while exercis.
ing. If you can perform these ex-
erclses in the yard or on the roof
It Is that much better.
For the solid "forty fat" bending
at the waist is absolutely neces-
sary. This flesh is more solid than
that Of the younger woman, and to
Danish It requires more persistence.
Bend from the waist forward, not
bending the knees, until the fingers
touch the floor. This is the ex-
ercise with which Mrs. LangtTy
tested herself every day, and 80

ward as far as possible, but do this
with great care. for the strain might
cause internal injury.
Swing the trunk as far around
from side to side as possible, bend
ing the body forward and letting the
arms swing free. Always battle
after these exercises. AS l have Of

tening, as are oils ana creams.
Especially does the woman OF
forty or more fear the loose skin
that follows reduction. IL you do not
reduce too rapidly this will not fol-
low, for the skin Will slowly become
used to the new conditions, and will
follow and adhere TO the shrinking
muscles. But 10 counteract this
lOosening OF the skin, which Is liable
10 cause wrinkles, battle the neck,
bosom, cheeks and chin several
times daily with cold water. Ice
can be used 10 advantage upon the
cheeks and chin. l do not advise
massage under these circumstances,
but recommend gentle pinching OF
the loose skin. This causes the
blood 10 flow through the tissues,
nOurish and make them firm. But
be sure TO pinch the muscles as well
as the skin.

who, like her, are between twenty
and thirty, or a little past thirty,
the causes of rapid taking on OF
flesh is one OF three: Either surali-
mentation, which is merely indlges-
ton, improper distribution OF food
elements, in persons OF rheumatic
tendency; latent dyspepsia or pre-
existent nervousness.
The cures are proper food diet,
chiefly Of vegetables and fruits, and
frequent baths in cold or cool water.
II you are nervous eat your meals
regularly, letting nothing interfere
with them. Eat less but eat 1t very
slowly, chewing it until the food
reaches a liquid state in your mouth.
Stop the over-eating, which is a bad
habit of the nervous person addicted
to plumpness. Teach yourself that
It is not masculine to be muscular.
Train yourself to enjoy exercise.
Exercise for a few days or weeks
will come to be a necessity. Exer-
else will make you healthier as well
as thinner, especially If you are OF
equity or rheumatic tendency. In
youth prepare for middle age. To
prevent equity middle age exercise
much in youth. And exercise out OF
doors is of twice the value OF ex-
ercise indoors, for 1t permits oxygen
TO do its work Of burning up the
fat. Golf and tennis, rowing and
long walks are the best friends of
the woman who would reduce
thirty fat"
Now let us consider the woman
who is past thirty and is nearing
OF has reached forty. Usually the
gain OF flesh at this age is due to
nervous trouble. Strange as it may
seem to the careless observer the
fat person is usually very nervous
especially the middle-aged woman
Resulting from this nervousness she

and at her back isn't she getting
a sight?" Even her doctor does not
want TO risk his fees by offending
her with reference to it and the
warning that what she regards as
signs Of health are really symp-
toms of disease.
The young woman notices that
she is sleepy after meals, that she
begins TO have troublesome head
aches, that she coughs somewhat
and she suffers from a sense OF helvi-
ness after meals. These are symp-
toms Of dyspepsia, and SHE should
correct them at once. Otherwise she
will accumulate fat and fat and fat,

times. Use both hands and grasp

Eat crackers instead OF bread.
Eat no soup and drink neither beer

Household work is good for both
Of you. So are stair and ladder
climbing, and all exercises which
causes you to stoop. When you are
in the country never lose an OPP
pOrtunlty to climb fence.
Turkish baths will aid you, but
light baths are better, though more
expensive.
These are valuable exercises:
Stand with one foot on the floor
raising the Oher. Bend the knee
and cross your hands over 1t. Draw
the knee as close 10 the stomach as
possible. Repeat several times. This
exercise, which Is really 'hugglng

the abdomen.
Lie on your back on the floor or
on hard mattress. Clasp your
hands over your knees and draw
them close to the stomach.
Lie on your back. Place your
feet beneath the bed or other heavy
piece of furniture Place the hands
Dat upon the floor behind the neck,
and thus raise your self to a sitting
posture.

Thanksgiving in Rayner

Last Thursday Raymar people oh
served Thanksgiving by gathering al
the school house for picnic dinner
and followed the fcas. with program
: of unusual merit.
The dinner. came first. as would b,
expected. Certainly, the loaded table.
gave no lack OF provisions in this DIR,
country. There WAS chicken, vcce.
tables. pies and cake to eat, until the
most ravenous appetites had to give
way and surrender iES.
In the afternoon a program was Civ.
en-, consisting of recitations and read.
ings by the smaller ones. music by old,
er ones and an address by Mrs. l.. II.
Sweigard.
The selections were all very good,
but perhaps the reading by Fanny Be
son and the music oy the quartet. con
sisting Of Mrs. Pischel, Mabel Adding
ton, james Tighc and /. N. vik with
Mrs. Joseph Tighe at the organ were
the most enthusiastically received. In
fact we feel that few communities can
furnish a higher class of music tn an
that rendered by the quartet.
The program was closed by an ap.
propriate address by Mrs. Sweigard.
The hour was late, as the program had
been longer than expected, but Mrs.
Sweigard was equal to the occasion,
telling few appropriate stories. and
making her address short and 10 the
the point, pleasing all present.
The entire exercises we're much en-
joyed.

Is good strong man, it isnot supposed
that the operation will be serious to his

improvements in Mesa vordc
National Pork

The Department Of the Interior pro-
poses to spend Sal.6l5 on the Mesa
Verde National Park during the fiscal
year ending June 30. 1913, il the
amount requested by the Secretary of
the Interior is appropriated by Con-
grcss. This is an increase of $34,
over the appropriation for the current
fiscal year. The main items are as
follows:
Completion of wagon road to cliff
dwellings,. $1,000: reconstruction and
repair of constructed road including.
widening, surfacing. and lcvcling OF
roadbed and the building of retaining
walls. $50, 900: construction of road from
Spruce Tree House to Balcony House,
81 900: repair of road travcrsing pub
lie lands leading to park highway. ST.
OO0: construction of custodian,s house.
s., 800: construction Of telephone line
from custodian s house to Mancos, SO,
900: contingent expenses and salaries,
G,6l5.
For the development and care of the
national parks the Secretary of the In
terror has asked Congress to appropri-
ate the sum of S79l. OS0. 60, an increase
of SGT. 7.ss0.6l over the appropriations
for the current fetal year. The nat
'onal parks constitute ideal recreation
grounds for thousands of people, but
their development and use are serious
ly retarded by the lack Of adequate
roads and trails. and until sufficient
money is appropriated for beginning a
comprehensive plan Of development the
parks will fall far short Of rendering
the important public use for which
they are intended. The general public
interest in these pleasure grounds is
shown by the fact that in list recent
ly issued by the Department of the In
terror 800 magazine articles on the
parks are enumerated. 1t il the in.
tention of the Department to make the
principal places OF interest in the parks
more accessible. to render travelling
more comfortable by sprinkling the
roads throughout the dry season. and
to guard the health Of the traveller by
the installation Of proper water supply
and sewerage systems. The response
bility for the future conduct Of the ma
tional parks muse rest with Congress,
hut the Department feels that the fin
ancinl needs Of these reservations
should be clearly presented TO Congress
in the annual estimates.
