HOW NOT TO WALK.

When the body is comfortably
clothed throughout. there is nothing
to interfere with normal and graceful
posture. 1t Is rare, indeed, that we
meet people who sit, stand or walk
correctly. Like Topsy. they have Just
"growed," and are content with fall
ing into a chair. or getting over the
worse yet, they deliberately assume
ridiculous, distorted positions and
take up one fad after another in
walking There have been Grecian
bends, kangaroo lopes, and all sorts
of silly fashions: the recent New
York SLOUGH (never was anything
more properly named) is undoubtedly
the most absurd fad, with it's spine
less, fallipg-to- pieces poses. The fash
ion plate illustrations in the maya
zines are full of grotesque caricatures
of the female figure, and it seems to
be the aim Of thousands Of women to
try and stand like the pictured fig
ures.
One young lady prided herself upon
her attainment OF the present mode
in walking, and was one OF group
of girls in an aesthetic dancing class,
Health. The teacher was q woman
of stately bearing and the personid-
cation of grace. and when she saw
the limp concortions Of the members
of the class. she felt rather hopeless.
To preach hygiene would make no i'm

pride. After the first lesson. she
singled out this most fashionably

Here's Natures Own
Remedy For Catarrh
Hyomei Relieves Catarrh Without tbs
Use Of Dangerous Drugs.

Not until Hyomei was discovered
has 1t been possible to truthfully say
that a real remedy for catarrh was
known.
Hyomei is an oil and its air is
breathed through small inhaler
furnished with it for a few minutes
four times day and during that time
every particle of this Hyomei-laden
air taken into the air passages and
lungs is impregnated with a powerful
germ killing and health giving anti
septic.
Sprays and lotions often cause dis
orders OF the respiratory tracts or
bring on some other diseases and
never make permanent cure OF
catarrh. But when the air of Hyomei
penetrates to the inmost air cells OF
the lungs and enters the blood with
the oxygen it not only kills the germs
in the throat and nose, but kills the
hacilli in the blood, freeing the mucous
membranes from poisonous mtcrobe
and giving perfect health.
A complete outfit is inexpensive and
includes an inhaler, dropper and SUI
fcient Hyomei for several weeks
treatment.
wilkinson e, Co. have so much
faith in the merit of Hyomef tha:
they agree to return the money to any
purchaser who Is not thoroughly sat
isfied.

Some interesting literature is be-
ing sent out in connection with the
Red Cross seal sale. One little circu.
lar says: Buying the Red Cross
seals is more than an obligation, it is
an opportunity. The Christmas seals
are sold only for the war against
tuberculosis. The seals you buy In
your own state support the campaign
there. Every seal you buy is a
bullet In the fight against tuber-
culosis. It helps protect your
country, your neighbors, your fam
lily and yourself from the disease
and its cost. tuberculosis is our
most destructive disease. One person
out Of every four in America who die
between the ages of fifteen and fifty
die from tuberculosis. It Is a chief
cause OF poverty. But it Is prevent,
able and conquerable. This war, man
against disease, is winning war
not wasting war, man against man.
1t IS the war that pays-it brings
prosperity. Will you not enlist in this
campaign by purchasing Christmas
seals?

There are two sides to the ques-

[By B. Lee Smith, in the Augusta,

A rude, sudden and chilling shock
awaits those who have been accustom
ed to purchasing their winter suits
and overcoats when the great reduc-
ton sales are put on in February.
There will, in all probability, be no
reduction sales this year, as the mills
are running overtime filing war or
ders that were made when times were
dull and it was considered blessing
that these big orders came just when
they did.
AS a result, the mills have been
forced to run day and night in order
to meet the demands OF the European
belligerents, and the merchant who In
the past was enabled to get just what
he wanted when he wanted It. and was
canvassed hard by the travelling men
representing the mills and the jobbers,
finds that he cannot now duplicate an
order. In fact orders given as early
as April last for winter clothing and
overcoats cannot be filled by the Job
Der and maker because the goods Ia
not available.
And the worst is not yet.
Overcoats and clothing cannot be
purchased and sold at anything like
the prices now being asked, as the
goods cannot be secured at any price

WHAT HE DOES NOT PRINT.


The average newspaper man has
much to say on the subject of the
news that he prints. And as a rule,
there is plenty and Of sufficient va
riety to appeal to all classes OF read
ers. The good citizen may wish that
there was more OF the things in
which he is specially interested, but
being fair-rninded will readily con-
cede that his wish is impossible of
fulfillment, as the tastes Of many
have to be consulted.
There are few in every community
who censure the editor because he
does not print an occasional happen
ing that may appear Of great import
ance to these few. The editor rarely
explains. It would be a waste of
words. But the chances are that in
his heart of hearts, he is more proud
of the fact that he does not print
some things than Of all the big stories
that he has ever served up to his
readers He recalls in after years
not the things that he did print, but
those that remained imprinted, says
the Burlington HawkEye. There he
has followed the dictates Of his heart
He has saved a family or circle OF
friends or some individual. shame and
grief and he can not doubt, that such
things are remembered and that
there is a warm spot in the hearts OF
those interested. because the news
paper man suspended the rules and
refused to print what a number OF
the minority would have considered
the best kind Of a story.
