STRONG INFLUENCE OF PETS
Man estations of Love for Them
Among Children First Signs of
Growth Of Sympathy.

Discussing the influence Of pets on
children in an article recently printed
In the Michigan Farmer, N. A. Clapp
says:
Among the strongest inclinations
and sentiments which we admire and
love, sympathy and kindly feeling
toward others. Those feelings are
breathed into the lives Of the chill
dren by the mothers, while the chill
dren are very young, and the first OPP
portunity offered for the expression or
those feelings Is when they come In
contact with their pets. The children
love to fondle their pets and tenderly
handle them just as they in turn have
been handled by their loving parents.
Their expressions of love for, and APP
probation of, the pets, are sometimes
amusing to older people, but 1t is the
bud just forming of beautiful flower
In the character Of the individual.
Such manifestations Of feelings are
the first signs Of the making Of agree
able people and they should be en-
couraged, but never blighted by harsh
and cutting remarks.
"Many men retain, as long as they
live, pleasant memories of the days
when they were given puppy and
allowed to play with 1t. Then when
1t grew up and became companion
and friend wherever they roamed, 1t
was their faithful servant that never
betrayed them. Later in life they
have awakened to the fact that no
matter If misfortune overtakes them
there are two friends that will re-
main true to them and always mani
fest an unyielding love for, and faith
fulness to them-they are the dog and
the mother"

NEW LAW, NOW IN EFFECT, SUB
JEcTs MEMBERS TO FEDERAL
ARMY STANDARDS.
RAISES ARMY OF $500 MEN
sentative and Senator In State
Makes Militia Law Conform
To Federal Government.

Nashvile.-The new military bill
for the state of Tennessee was signed
BY the governor, and is in immediate
effect Officials say that the effect
of the law is simply to make the state
militaryp law conform to that of the
federal government, but that when the
members of the national guard are
called into the service of the United
States again it will mean the virtual
end of the national guard plan Of the
state
Had not this measure become law
the whole state guard would have
been mustered out of service shortly
following the end of the legislative
session, or before the first of May.
The national guard will conform to
the specifications of the regular army
and no other troops are to be main
tanned in the state. provided, that the
state is not limited to the use of the
national guard within the state in
time of peace and the act does not
conflict with the state constabulary.
The number of enlisted men in the
national guard to be organized before
June 8, 1917, shall be in the proportion
of 200 for each senator and congress-
man from Tennessee, and this number
shall be increased so per cent until a
total peace strength of 800 men for
each senator or congressman shall be
reached Except when the national
guard is called into federal service,
the governor, as commander-in-chief,
is given the right to fix the location OF
the units of the national guard; pro-
vided. that no organization of the
guard whose members are entitled to,
or have received compensation under
the national defense act of June 3.
1916, shall be disbanded without the
consent of the president, nor without
such consent shall the personnel OF
any unit be reduced below the mini
mum peace strength.

New Law For Nimrods.

Regulating of hunting and fishing

certain kinds of baskets; that April
1 to June l shall be closed season;
that all hunting ana fishing must be

Tax Law Amended.

The rigidity of the law repeating
back assessments was softened a lit
tie by the passage of the bill giving a
right to go after property inadequate
ly assessed. Under the repeating act
of 1915 property can be back assessed
only unless it escaped taxation by
fraud.
The new bill amends this by add
ing cor shall have been inadequately
assessed by reason of the connivance
or fraud of the tax debtor" This
means the return of the back tax sys-

ton of Good Health.
Proper breathing is one OF the great
big factors in promoting and retaining
good health.
1t Is no great number Of years since
the subject of deep breathing has en-
gagged not only the attention Of physi-
clans. but trainers of athletes and the
public generally. Recent authorities
give special emphasis to the efficacy Of
deep breathing for estimates and for
children and young adults who are pre-
disposed to tuberculosis.
Professor Arnold Hitler in the Der.
lin Clinical Weekly notes that it in
creases the passage of blood through
the liver; that it increases the secre-
ton and excretion of bile; that the
stomach when filled with food may
likewise be favorably Influenced be-
cause the movement Of the stomach
contents through the pyloris is facili-
tated.
deep breathing says the New
York Medical Record. lis the most sci
entific resource for the prevention Of
uric acid disease. One must begin
with diaphragmatic breathing, which
naturally precedes rib breathing. The
respiratory movements are now slowly
increased until all the muscles involved
In rib breathing gradually participate.
One begins with three daily periods of
fifteen or twenty minutes each. The
position of the breather is immateriaL
He may do his forced breathing while
standing or walking.
"In some individuals very deep
breath appears to arrest the pulse be-
cause Of the compression Of the sub
clavian artery; hence inspiration
should be limited to certain number
per minute"

was no more than the duty Of the
architects to obey.-SO q new superin-

One of the architects had the cour.
age to ask the august lady what had
happened, since the former superin-

the most important the firm had, was
known to be polite and courteous al
ways. 1t seemed, according to the
lady, that he had been familiar"

how the children were. Word came
down one morning that Mrs. Z. could
