Teeth and Health

slowly, you will nevertheless be the
gamer in the end
Common sense tells you first of all
not to pay out more strength than you
are taking in. Not to put undue strain
on any organ. be It brain, heart, stom-
ach. lungs or liver.
Give each part its full share Of work
and fun share of rest, and many aches
and pains will be Of the past.
To be well simply means not to be
conscious Of any part Of your body.
AS soon as you realize that you have
a stomach or liver or lungs you may
be sure something is wrong with them.
Each part of our body is meant for
use not abuse

Ewes Deductions.

Even though fall wedding prospects
look slim, the kind of woman who usu-
ally wins is the one who begins right
now to look forward to another sum
mer.
The woman who is too anxious to get
married is quite often the one who
never succeeds.
Many a man is so conceited that by
the time he has found Il woman he
thinks is good enough he discovers that
she considers him altogether too old for
her.
It's getting so a girl just doesn't
dare to be as entertaining as she could
for fear some man will dub her Il
"highbrow."
While the man fisherman can come
home bravely with stories of the Won
derful fish that got away. the Girl an
gler at the summer resort must either
come home with n solitaire or preserve
an awful silence.
Every woman imagincs she is better
suited to make the man happy than
the other woman in the case.

SUBJECT KING VISITS PARIS
Bey Of Tunis. Conquered by France,
Said to Be an Enlightened and
Educated Man.

An interesting guest OF the French
nation during the festivities on the
national holiday was Sidi Mohammed
en- Naceur, the Bey Of Tunis. who
then returned the visit made to Tuhis
last year by President Fallleres.
When France, after a short cam.
paign. took possession in 1881 OF
Tunis. the present Bey succeeded his
cousin. Sid Mohammed el Hadi. But
the French did not follow In this col
ony their policy Of Algeria; they left
the Bey the empty honor Of royalty.
AS a matter Of fact. as the head OF
the royal family and the local head
of the church. his power is great, al,
though outwardly he Is subject OF
the French conquerors.
He has accepted the role Of vassal
sovereign and Tunis is almost as
peaceable as any French province,
largely due to his influence. He is an
accomplished scholar, has written
books I'm French and encourages the
education of his countrymen.
Possibly he realizes that IL he took
a different course he might not long
be able to enjoy the palace that Is one
OF the show sights Of the suburbs OF
Tunis.
