harder; fat is the tell tale evidence of
accumulated error.
To be fat at forty is sure sign
that the heart has been imposed upon
in some way. Often sedentary habit
or overlooking is responsible. Adipos-
ity is often due to toxemia; beer
drinkers of ten become fat because of
some toxic agent of the brew.
Fear is a poison to the heart and
its delicate accessories. Any poison is
bad on the heart. Guard well the
heart against all toxic agents but the
question of what are toxic agents is
the most important question of all.
Meat, beer, wine, whiskey, tobacco
and the like are toxic agents that
shorten life and cause asthma, dropsy
and other evidence of long continued
abuse of the heart.
The heart should be protected by
leading a calm, cheerful and useful
life.

How Buffalo Bill Got His Name

Many years ago, when the Union Pa
cific railroad was completed, the ques-
tion arose as to how all the laboring
men were to be fed on meat, as meat
was thought necessary to make muscle.
General w. e. Webb had the con-
tract to feed the men. and in talking
the matter over one day with some Of
his subordinates one Of them suggest
ed that he call In William Cody, then q
famous government scout on the
plains, to help solve the problem. Co
dy suggested that he be allowed to hire
men and kill buffaloes for the railroad
men.
This plan was adopted, and Cody be-
came later world famous as Buffalo
Bill. In those days the buffaioes were
SO plentiful that It Is on record that
more than one engineer had to stop bis
train until q herd had crossed.-A. G.

Are Anglo-Saxons conceited about

lean Tool Builders" by Professor J.

thus: practically all the creative work
In tool building has been done In Eng
land and America. The
French have shown an aptitude for
refnements and ingenious novelties.
The Swiss are clever artisans.
but have excelled in personal skill.
Germany has developed splen-
did mechanics. but the principal ma
chine tools had taken shape before
1870. when the empire began. The
history Of English and American tool
building therefore covers substantially
the entire history of the art"
