Cure for a stiff Neck

A simple exercise for the cure OF
a stiff neck is as follows: Turn the
head slowly to the right as far as it
will go. then to the left, and then re-
peat the movements half dozen (or
more) times consecutiyely. three or
four times day. Another gymnas-
tic for a similar purpose is in this
way; Let the chin sink on 10 the
chest then roll the head gently to the
right, then swing 1t around gradually
until it has formed a complete circle
and returns to Ms original position.
This loosens the muscles of the neck
and should remove all stiffness. The
shoulders may be elevated slightly to
meet the chin in its travels. Rub
bing the muscles right and left of the
neck with firm, vigorous strokes will
also help considerably to do away
with the discomfort of stiff neck-so
often caused through sitting in q
drafty car or room.

TO Open q Book.

How do you open new book? In
the natural, ordinary way you will tell
yourself. No matter how you do it,
this is the right way, and for the bene-
fit of those who want to know as we'll
as for the sake of prolonging the life
of the book the printed directions
would be well placed II they accom-
panied every new publication. Lay
the book back downward on table
or smooth surface. Press the front
cover down until 1t touches the table,
then the back cover. holding the
leaves ip one hand while you open and
turn back a few of the leaves at the
front, then at the back alternately,
pressing them down gently until you
reach the center of the volume. This
process should be gone through with
several times. A new book should
never be opened violently and the COW
ers bent back, as this method is liable
not only to break the back, but loosen
the leaves.

TlmeIessness of Rome.

Few of US ever ask ourselves where
IN the eternity of Rome consists It
does not consist in a physical eternity,
for Rome was not without beginning
and she shall surely not be without
end. 1t is rather a philosophical eter-
nifty. 1t is eternity as Kant has
taught it to us. the eternity of time
lessness. 1t is the timelessness OF
Rome, rather than the actual extent
of time which makes the etefaal. and
this timelessness shows itself in moth
Ing more clearly than in Rome's eter-
nal youth. She who today might well
be an old lady with her three thou
sand winters, is only the incorporation
of young Italy, this modern young
woman, with her bead full Of social
istic theories and her garments orna-
mented with the gridiron pattern Of
tramways.-Jesse Benedict Carter, in
the Atlantic.

Then over the stile and up the hill
| follow the thrushs song
To quiet nook in the grateful shade
OF an appletree gnarled and old.
Where sea of clover invites the bees
In jackets of brown and gold
There spring near by to Stake my thirst.
And grass for fragrant bed
And the clover, cool with the morning dew.
For pillow under my head;
The scented blossoms refresh the soul
OF the weary and sad earth-rover
And 10. there is never a cent TO pay
AZ The sign of the crimson clover

soldiers pass long periods of time
living among the SHOWS and the
precipices, with whose perls and
hardships they are as familiar as

lead ambitious tourists on trips up
high peaks.
Then, too, as | have said, special
maneuvers are regularly executed
in order still more to familiarize
the men with what they would have
to do in case war should break out
Large bodies of troops (as shown
in the accompanying photographs,
which were taken during the latest
evolutions of the French army of
the Alps) are led over the
passes, up through the rocks. the
glaciers and the snow. dragging
their guns and conducting their
mule trains, burdened with arms,

But, great as the hardshps Of
such life may seem, they are off

Mountain life is extremely health
full The pure, rare air expands the
lungs: the constant exercise
