How to Walk.

There is no virtue in a dawdling
saunter. The slow and languid drag
ging of one foot after the other which
some people call walking would tire
an athlete. 1t utterly exhausts a weak
person, and that is the reason why
many delicate persons think they can
not walk. To derive any benefit from
the exercise it is necessary to walk
with light. elastic step which swings
the weight of the body so easily from
one leg to the other that it's weight
is not felt and which produces a
healthy glow, showing that the slug
gish blood is stirred to action in the
most remote veins.

fact that there are now CLOSE TO 1000

usually claim ten votes for every red

years ago, with $500 red cards there
were something moro than $4,000 So

II II conceded that three and a half
out OF every Ave OF the new acoessons

the Democrats on the basis of $4,000
additional votes. that would mean the
withdrawal Of 1900 from the Demo-

publlcans. Two years ago the Demo-
Gratis cast 10000 votes and the Re.
publicans 100000, Deducting the loss
to the Socialists, this would leave the

thousand In favor of the Democrats.
Afraid Of Grandfather Clause.
In that connection II should be- con-
sdered further that the 'grandfathor
clause" was rgidly enforced at the
1910 election, eliminating practically
the entire negro vote Of the state. This

The Democrats themselves are far

practically no popular enthusiasm in

who did things and who made the biz
