The Star Spangled Banner.

Oh! say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twi1ights last cleaning,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perious fight,
Ger the ramparts we watched, were so CALAMITY streaming;
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
Ger the land of the free and the home of the brave.
On the shore dim1y seen thro' the msts of the deep,
Where the foes naughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, DER the towering steep,
AS it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the CLEAN of the mornings first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
Tis the star-spangled banner; oh, long may it wave
Ger the land of the free and the home Of the brave.
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,
That havoc of war and the battles confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
Der the land of the free and the. home of the brave.
oh, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and wild wars desolation:
Best with vctry and peace, may the heavn rescued land
Praise the Powr that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: I'm God is our trust!'
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
Der the land of the free and the home of the brave.

How to Walk.
Most of us do not walk correctly.
We have the habit Of walking along
without thinking about what we are
doing. This absence of self-conscl-
business would be splendid If one were
walking in the proper way. but since
the reverse is the truth. 1t is neces-
sary to correct our habits. A line
drawn from the middle of the heel to
the toes. dividing the foot In halves,
and parallel to the direction IN which
one is travelling. will show the proper
position Of the foot in walking. Walk
with the foot almost nat, allowing 1t
to touch the ground in such manner
as to give a swing to the walk. Do
not allow the knees to stiffen, but let
them give little with each step. Let
the limb swing from the hip rather
than from the knee. Let the arms
swing naturally at the sides and take
a moderately long stride. Keep the
chest raised and well expanded.
Breathing and walking.
Have you ever felt short of breath
soon after walking short distance!
There are two reasons for this. One 10
want Of the walking habit and the
other IL incorrect breathing. When
walking begin slowly and breathe
through the nose, keeping the mouth
closed. Breathing, through the mouth
allows the delicate mucous membrane
to become inflamed with result OF
colds in the head and chest and even
serious disease.
Driving Away Disease.
Well-known walkers have proved
that the short cut to health is walking.
Many of them say that through this
exercise they have cured rheumatism.
the exertion removing uric acid from
the system. Another well-known Pc
destrian cured himself Of Bright's dis
ease by persisting In walking after be-
ing told that his cure was hopeless. I
have known persons to cure persist
ent colds by vigorous walking. The
exercise had the same result as a
Turkish bath. Needless to say that one
should not linger in the damp clothes
when the walk Is finished. They
should be removed and hot bath
taken, followed by a cold shower.
Don't let the weather brighten you.

clothes without an umbrella. II the

coat inquire il it has been
~ sponged If not this must be
attended to before cutting, or
figuring mark, and IL caught in show
er the dress will not only be spotted,
but the skirt may shrink one or more
inches.
In the stores of large cities spong-
ing will be done at slight extra cost
per yard. For those who reside in
small towns and cannot have the work
done at the store, or those who wish
to do it themselves. the following d.
rections will give entire satisfaction.
Place good-sized ironing blanket
upon the kitchen table. being sure
that it is perfectly smooth, as the
smallest wrinkle in the blanket will
cause a gloss on the material when
the iron is passed over 1t. Clip the
selvages before sponging lightweight
goods, but in heavy cloths and cloak
ings they are best torn of. Lay the
goods, il single fold, right side down
upon the blanket and cover with wet
cloth "a heavy piece Of unbleacned
cotton one yard wide and yard long,
we'll wrung out. Pass the iron over
this several times, steaming well. Re-
move the cloth and press the material
almost dry. Shrink only small por-
ton at time. moving the material on
the ironing blanket until the full
length has been sponged and pressed
Allow double-width material to re-
main folded with the right side turned
In. II the material is very heavy and
the steaming does not seem to go
through the second fold, the process
should be repeated on the older side
1t is not advisable to sponge some
OF the thinner fancy weaves of wooden
goods, as the steam makes them shriv-
ell up. When doubtful, experiment with
small piece of the goods, and If you
find that water may not be used, press
it well with moderately warm-not
hot-iron before cutting.
One should always bear in mind the
fact that it Is quite as important that
washable materials such as linen.
pique, duck and other linen and cot
ton fabrics, be shrunk and pressed be-
fore cutting. as cloth and woolens, for
after washing they frequently shrink
considerably. Plain white or a solid
color that may spot il sprinkled should
be wet thoroughly by dipping in water
and hanging up to dry. For colored
goods a handful Of salt or enough vim
egar to make the water Slightly acid to
the taste may be added. Care Is neces-
sary in pressing material after it has
been iampened not to stretch or draw
either side, but keep the grain of the
material straight in both the length
and the width. Canvas or haircloth
used for interlining should always be
shrunk before using.

BY EDNA EGAN.

T is sad fact that many per-
sons fail to realize that walk
ing is the best exercise that
one can possibly take to pro-
mote health Of mind and body. Per-
haps the fact that 1t is 50 cheap q lux
ury makes 1t less attractive. II walk
ing clubs would charge fat fee for
the privilege of belonging to them and
walking with the members, perhaps
the percentage Of men and women in
dulging in pedestrianism would be
greater. There is nothing like this
form of exercise to produce perma-
nent muscular development, to give
mental stimulation through observa-
ton and to prolong the life Of every
individual who is wise enough to form,
the habit Of walking Ave or ten miles
every day.
Clothing.
1t is most important that one wear
proper clothing for the walk. For a
woman a short skirt or boomers, a
comfortable-ftting shirtwaist, shade
hat and properly fitting shoes and
stockings are In order. Since the
entrance of women in active work Of
various kinds. many types of sane and
comfortable costumes have been in
troduced, one OF them consisting OF
boomers, over which circular skirt
can be worn when skirt il desired
the same to be used as cape when
necessity demands. Such costume
would be ideal for the hike. Lacking
a cape-skirt, include sweater or 9TH
err lightweight wrap for throwing over
the shoulders when resting, as colds
from cooling off after overheating will
cancel all good results OF the hike.
Shoes.
Never take a lbng walk in new shoes.
The shoes for the exercise should be
those which have become adjusted to
the foot long before the walk is to be
taken, or they will chafe and cause
blisters. The best shoe is one with a
thick sole and soft upper. 1t should
be of ample width across the toes. See
that the stockings At the feet snugly,
SO that no wrinkles will cause blisters,
but take care not to have them too
short. either.
Care Of the Feet.
Frequently the enjoyment and bene-
fits of walking are marred by inatten-
ton to the care Of the feet When the
feet have been used very little they be-
come tender and blister very easily
after any undue foot exercise. Feet
in this condition should be strength
ened by rubbing them night and morn
ing with alcohol. Another way to
tougher the skin il to apply mixture
