PHYSICAL CULTURE.
As Good For the Business Man as For
the Soldier In TRAINING.

tHo SOiuiST III ITdiInHHs
If physical culture is needed for
those who bear arms in defense of the
country why should 1t not be applied
also to the soldiers of the business and
professional world. the men in the COM
mercial trenches? If certain number
OF our citizens are compelled to go
through rigid course Of physical train
ing, why should not all others be called
upon to follow suit?
The soft muscled clerk, the devital-
ized student. the overworked business
.man-they need awakening. Now, In
many instances they are but little
more than human ciphers, 25. so or rs
per cent men. With little properly
directed exercise they could be fitted
for the ranks of the 100 per centers.
Six hours weekly, two hours for
three days each week, would put the
average 1abby muscled. sedentary
worker in fine shape. 1t would square
his shoulders, stlffen his backbone, put
some energy and enthusiasm into his
makeup. 1t would make a real man of
him.
Every man who is not in training
should begin now. If he cannot train
with other men let him follow a system
Of home training. Hard muscles
strong, stable nerves, high grade en-
durance-in short, "A physique as "hard
as nails"-should be the ambition of
every sensible man.-Physical Culture

termined before such a move will be
made. This mine is situated one mile

The Professor Worried.

The absent minded professor from
the university town was in Indianap-

the city he took a tour of the larger de-
paTtment stores. In one of them he
was much perplexed.
He read the sign over the door of the
elevator:
This car express to fifth and sixth
floors, Up only"
Absently he read the sign again.
Then the car door opened.

elevator boy, 'if this elevator goes only
up, how on earth did you get down

The elevator boy grinned, frowned,

In the year 1860 the Waldo copper
mines In Josephine county were dis
covered by a miner by the name Of
Halves, and several deposits were
soon after developed. But the mines
gave poor returns on account Of the
extremely high cost of transporta-
tion and material. Copper deposits
occur in the Gold Hill, Galice, Upper
Applegate and Waldo districts. In
the Gold Hill district 1t is found
chiefly as chalcopyrite, occurs in
quartz veins in quartzite, and also as
a primary mineral Of the norite in
trusive rock. In the Upper Apple
gate district chalcoprite occurs in
quartz veins. In the Galice district
the copper ores are in veins produced
at least in part by displacement. The
most important deposits lie next to
"a well-marked fault at the contact
between slate and datite porphyry
In the Waldo district the copper ores
are intimately associated with SER
pentine, in which they form irregular
masses. The deposits do not occur
in we'll defined veins, often in lense
shapes.

"The intelligent girl is also markedly
conscientious. moderately robust, ath.

quick rather than sullen temper. She is
less self conscious than the dull girl

Migratory Birds.

The United States Department of
Agriculture has proposed for adop-
tion regulations amendatory of the
regulations for the protection of mi-
gratory birds approved by the presi-
dent August 21, 1916. A period of
three months is allowed in which the
proposed amendments may be exam
ined and considered before final
adoption, and will become effective
on or after October Is, next, when-
ever approved by the president.
The proposed amendments pre-
scribe a daily closed season on all
migratory game and insectiverous
birds from sunset to half an hour
before sunrise, instead of a closed
season from sunset to sunrise, as pre-
scribed by the present regulations.
The following changes relative to
the waterfowl season are proposed:
Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Mon
tana, Wyoming, Colorado, Nevada,
Idaho, and that portion of the states
of Oregon and Washington lying east
of the summit Of the Cascade noun
tains: Open season, September 16 to
December 81 both dates inclusive.
The changes are suggested to unity
the seasons on waterfowl in the
northern zone, and in most instances
are made to conform with the open
seasons under state laws.
In response to numerous inquiries
the department has advised that the
federal mlgratory-bird regulations
are not to be construed to authorize
the killing Of migratory birds at any
time when 1t is unlawful to kill them
under state laws.

FACING THE CAMERA.
Don't Dress Up and Don't Pose When
Having a Picture Taken.


There are many things | would like
to say to the woman who intends hay
ing her picture taken,' said famous
photographer the other day.
"Alany women come to me and say:
OF course you prefer taking actresses.
They must have many advantages over
those women who never have time but
to give an occasional glance in their
mirrors This is entirely a mistake.
The conscious pose never makes q sat
isfactory portrait. / would say en-
phatlcally to the woman who goes to
have her photograph made not to re-
hearse her pose and facial expression
beforehand.
II always find it difficult to impress
on the woman coming to my studio
that clothes and jewels are Of abso-
lutely no account in photograph. II a
woman comes to be photographed In
the clothes she is used to wearing she
will feel at ease and therefore look her
best.
"One Of the curses of our present day
civilization is the ever changing ques-
tion Of fashion. How much more CIV
illzed were the japanese, who realized
that the kimono was perhaps the most
perfect dress for women at all times
who only varied it with different bro
cades and girdles. The photograph that
concerns itself with clothes is soon out
of fashion, and no matter how good
likeness of the face has been obtained,
the picture is grotesque in few years
because the clothes are passe."

st, Sophia's Palimpsest.

Travellers who have visited the great
Mohammedan mosque of st. Sophia il
Constantinople tell Of the visibility Of
Inscriptions made in the interior of the
building when it was a Christian
church. These had been painted over
by the Moslem conquerors, but time
defeated their purpose of total efface-
ment, says the Christian Herald. Over
the entrance is the inscription In Latin,
II am the door; by me if any man en-
ter in he shall be saved and shall 90 in
and out, and he shall find pasture"
The bricks in the great dome in the in
terror reveal this inscriptions; Deus in
medic eius; non commovebitur. Adiu-
yabit cam Deus vultu suo." The trans
lation may be found in Psalm XVI, D.
These facts are of interest in view of
the present tottering condition of the
Moslem power.

Putting the Cat Out at NIGHT.

The practice of turning the cat out OF
doors Oat night is as cruel as 1t is un-
necessary. No animal is fonder OF
warmth and comfort, and the pets hap
piness certainly is not increased by a
night spent outside in cold and damp
ness.
If as much energy was exhausted in
keeping the cat indoors as too often Is
expended in putting her out, how great
would be the boon to human nerves
and unfortunate wild things! All fe-
lines are normally nocturnal, and it Is
at night, If ever, that curb on their
activities Is needed.-Lee S. Crandall,

ONE WAY TO woo SLEEP.

It is hard for me to remember now
that my knowledge Of the sleepy road
gained so many years ago. came only
through the chance bit Of advice drop
ped by a wise, kind, weary old doctor
as he shufied at midnight down the
corridor Of the silent hospital, says the
Atlantic Monthly.
Whatever was the errand of life or
death that had called him In such
haste, he had time to stop and give me
a friendly word, although l, a small
and incorrigibly sleepless patient, was
sitting bolt upright among the pillows
in defiance Of all his orders and was
staring wide eyed into the hot, pain
haunted dark.
"You think you are never going to be
able to sleep again, don't you? he OBJ
served. "Well, shut your eyes and do
just what | tell you. Think of some
road that you know well, good long
road that winds and turns and shows
you water and woods and hills. Keen
your eyes tight shut and travel along
1t In memory. Go as slowly as you
can, recall every sight and sound and
perfume as you pass by.

"This mining region will in a short

neglected so many opportunities here
now will have occasion to say that
they, too, must have been in on the
