Can You Go STRAIGHT?

The above question is not intended
to be personal. We are quite sure that
you are a good, steady going citizen;
but, all the same, we are equally sure
that you cannot walk straight without
the help of your eyes. Naturally your
tendency is to walk In circle, and
you would do this If your eyes were
not constantly correcting the tendency.
You may easily test this. Place two
stakes in your garden about eight feet
apart, take up a position some sixty
feet away. get some one to bl1ndfold
you and then try to walk between the
two stakes. You will find that you
are going in circle.
Why? The explanation is very SIM
pie. You walk faster with one foot
than with the other. Everybody does
One leg always takes longer srlde'
with the result that you naturally
walk more to one side than the other.
Men who have been lost In the AUS
tralian bush have marked the trees
they passed and found that they again
and again returned to their starting Tree

We Should Not Worry.

IVORY would kill a horse" says
Mrs. Clara u. Moore, health expert
There is no sickness more insidious.
no drug more poisonous, than the con-
tinued effects of worry.
proper physical exercise will re-
move the worry and the tired out con-
dition that causes it A sick body Of
ten produces a sick mind. and the OPP
posite is also true that a sick mind
causes n sick body.
The moral is. If you do not want to
be sick do not worry "-Chautauqua

At a meeting of the Lafayette
County Medical Society, held in
Lexington on the 18th day of
April, 1915, among other bust
ness the following resolutions
we're passed:
"Since it is the greatest work
of the medical profession to pre-
vent sickness among the people,
and since the prevention of fraud
and imposition being practiced
upon the sick and afflicted is
deemed scarcely less important,
the Lafayette County Medical
Society and all other county med
ical societies of the State passed
resolutions condemning certain
bills that were to come before
our last Legislature for pas
sage. 1t was and is our opinion
that should those bills have be-
come laws it would have resulted
in fraud, deception and injury
being p~racticed upon those in
need of medical aid.
With this idea in mind and a
desire to benefit the public, we
requested our representative,
Mr.. N. M. Houx, to work and
vote against those bills, and
since he saw fit to place his judg-
ment above ours and the whole
medical profession of the State
of Missouri in purely medical
matters and voted contrary tC
our requests therefore, be it
RESOLVED, that we condemn
his action in most emphatic
terms as being advised and con.
trary to the public good; and be
it further
RESOLVED, that a copy Of
this resolution be published in
the county papers and a copy Of
it sent to Mr.. Houx.

Pres.

TRICK OF THE MIND
indianapolis Man Had Allowed His
Thoughts to Run IN a Groove
Of the Past.

George Rubens, who was for many
years with a leading clothing house
in indianapolis, recently withdrew
from the clothing business and asso-
ciated himself with an electric light
company. One day recently he was
standing in the door of the electric
light company's office when he was
approached by a well-known Indian
apolis business man.
"HelIo, Ruben8," said the man. q
want you to have the collar on this
coat changed for me Pll leave it
and you can"
"Where do you think you are?"
interrupted Rubens.
The man looked at Rubens and
then up at the sign on the window
and laughed.
swell, if that doesn't just show
what a scurvy trick a mans mind
will play on him." he said. 81 left
home with two things on my mind
this morning. wanted to come here
and pay my electric light bill and l
wanted to go to your old stand and
leave this coat. When l saw you |
lost my geographical bearings and
associated you, from long habit, with
my clothes. Come on and have a
cigar and forget it."
Rubens took the cigar, but couldn't
forget it. 1t seemed too good a joke
to go up in Smoke.-Indianapolis
