HEALTH AND BEAUTY

whether your shoulders are fem ir1inely sloping or boyishly broad and square does not matter nearly so much as whether you hold them well The only honnely shoulders are round ones and very thin or very fiat ones And all these defects can be remedied
 If you are round shouldered, try this a dozen times each doy. Stand facing hands outstretched to touch each wall the corner of the room with your bend forward into the corner as far IS you can. The hands support you, and at the same time the position al- lows the chest to expand, while the shoulders are being pushed back It is best to breathe in as you bend for ward and out as you stra tighten up. And so you develop the chest as well as the shoulders.
 hisp pisxederctzi heOwhole te
 If your shoulders are thin. exercise and massage gently with a flesh mak- ing cream-which you had better make yourself for the ordinary kind you purchase is of little value for this Or use warmed cocoa butter or olive oil By the massage you bring up blood to the surface of the skin, thereby build ing new tissue, arS you work in a nourishing oil. This should be done daily.
 If you are fat reduce all over by diet and so bring the whole body into bet ter proportion. Wear a brassiere to hide the fat above the corset, and if you massage, use a kneading motion not severe enough to bruise but just hard enough to break up and scatter the fatty particles.

SELLING NAVAL VESSELS.

Regardless of the response that has
 been made in this country to the de- mand for ships. ships and more ships, and the additions that are being made to the merchant vessels of the coun- try from month to month, there will be interest in the outcome of the sale
 Of the hundred or more naval vessels that are to be put up at auction py this government.
 These vessels, which are of various types, have been picked out for dis posal in this manner because they are not considered up to The standard of requirements for such use as the gov ernment has for them. or else now
 that the war is over there is no
 use for them. Many are obsolete
 types of warships but there is
 undoubtedly some use to which they
 can be put. though it will not be sur
 prising if some of them are acquired
 simply for the purpose of juriking
 them in view of the difficulty of con verting certain kinds of naval vessels into merchantmen with view to competing with other ships.
 Nevertheless with the prices of ships where they are and the need still great, it will be surprising if there are not those who will make the most of the opportunity that is presented by this offering to turn many of these vessels into cargo carriers of some kind. Certainly there could never be a more favorable time for such oper- ations. We need vessels for all kinds of uses and certainly the cheating Of the junkheap will simply mean just so much velvet for someone, and while the number will include many of the submarine chasers, it is not improb- able that there will be less difaculty in disposing of these than in getting rid of some of the other types of yes sells. The navy department couldn't make the offering at a time when bet ter prices could be expected.

4 LONG. HARD JOB.

That organization that has set out with the avowed purpose of bringing about the end of lynchings must have been fully acquainted with the jeb that lies before it and the obstacles that are to be overcome. Certainly it could not have started it's work with out being aware of the conditions that exist for such were what made it hear it's call to service. and yet the den1- onstrations that are constantly being made in behalf of lynch law and mob rule are enough to make the job dis couraging for even more robust body.
 Note for instance the attitude of a crowd Of citizens in Knox county. Tennessee, that was so determined to take the life of 2 suspected Negro that they refused to accept the word of the taller to the effect that the ac- cused had been removed to another institution that three separate com nittees were allowed to search the jail to demonstrate the truth of the statement. Even that did not satis- fy and that body of citizens became so enraged when the state militia were called upon to protect the 1ail that they stormed the building at tackled the state troops. smashed the door and windows and engaged in pEOHlSCuOuS SnOoClng because Iney had been frustrated in their effort to commit murder.
 The crime for which the accused was arrested was one calling for cap- feal punishment but the Negro is only a suspect and is entitled to a fair trial Yet the mob was determined that that should not be permitted which makes it evident that any or ganization that sets out to put an end 10 lynching has got a long. hard job before il in aroGsIIIss public sentiment 10 the point where it will uphold law and order and insist that its own state laws are treated with respect rather than contempt The greater the job. however, the greater the effort that needs to be put forth.

CONCERNING WOMEN

The Washington State Federation ot Women's clubs has placed itself or record in favor of a movement to stor extravagant dress by women.
 A California woman obtained a di- vorce on the testimony that her hus- band bought her only two dresses in seventeen years.
 In Samoa when a woman is mar ried several tatto marks are placed on her, and both in Fiji and Samoa the birth of each child is registered this way on the mothers hand.
 The women's units of the British Army will receive war medals the same as the men.
 The women of Texas have reached the point where they would gladly shoulder rifles and go across the Rio Grande and kill the Mexican outlaws who have been responsible for the recent outrages against American wo- men and children.
 Fifty-four per cent. of the voters in the last National assembly election in Germany were women. Young women proved more arden voters than youths of the same age.

CANNING FRUITS

Fruit may be canned in water by eitherthe open kettle or the cold pack method. When the open kettle method is used the fruit is placed in a preserv- inG kettle and cooked in the least possible amount of water, instead of the usual proportion or sirup, until the fruit is tender. The fruit Is then pour ed into tested jers that have been heat ed iii 6 =an of water for at least ten minutes.
 The jars should be completely filled, the rubber adjusted and the jars seal- ed a once. All utensils which come in contact with the fruit such as spoons, tunnels or forks. should be heated with the jars.
 Tn the cold pack method the pre- pared fruit is packed into clean tested jars to within one fourth inch of the top of the jar. The jars are then fill cd with boiling water instead of sirup the jars partly sealed. The next step is to place the jars on a rack in the utensi1 in which they are to be cook ed and add sufficient hot water to cover the tops of the jars to a depth of one inch. The water is then brought to a boil and the cooking continued for from fifteen to thiry minutes. de- pending on the kind of fruit. When the cooking Is finished the jars are remov- ed from the water. the seals are tight ened and the jars are inverted to cool. the addition of sugar when the cans are opened gives better flavor.

That the bill for establishing such soldiers and sailors as desire it on farms has merit is indicated by the fact that 1t has been getting consider ation from the American Bankers as . sociation which considers that there should be a definite ratio between the value of the land and the improve ment thereon in the matter of advar1c- ing funds. and that the whole author ity should not fest with the depart ment of the interior. Those sugges- tions are made for the purpose of safety and the strengthening of the measure. The time to protect the in terests of all concerned is while the legislation is being considered. but it is apparent that the earlier the op- portunities for starting such land de- velopment can be extended the quick CT will there be felt the anticipated results in connection herewith.

EUaoPE's JOB.

According to the report that has been given to the American delega- ton in Paris by the commission named to investigate the conditions in Turkey, there is apparently a major ity sentiment throughout that country
 that the United States should accept the mandate for the future govern
 ment of that country. This may or may not have been encouraged by the
 sentiment that is known to prevail among European nations that the task should be shouldered by this country
 There can be no question but what this country has been interested in certain sections of Turkey because the people thereof have been obliged to struggle along under such frightful conditions. And it is equally certain that we do not desire any resumption of the massacres that have taken place there, but Turkey is a problem that ought to be dealt with by Flu rope The fact that Armenians. Sy
 rians ana others in Turkey are desir- ous that the United States should un-
 iertake the job of establishing a proper government. there does not mean that others cannot do it
 When it comes to accepting a man date from the league of nations this country would be willing to render what service it could within IS o~n jurisdiction but the idea of going over into Turkey. where 1t might be neces sary to send an army of 100. GOO, does not. it is believed. meet the approval of the people of this country. It is not going 10 be a pleasure trip for any country that undertakes the job of handling the situation in Turkey, but it is not so much the size of the task as it is dipping into a problem that belongs to Europe and is open to many complications because thereof, that causes opposition to the accept ance of such a mandate by this coun- try.

LABOR DAY.

For more than a score and a half years there has been a general rec cguition of Labor day throughout the country. cn which occasion industry is st 3 stanGstiil. the la boring man takes ! holiday and there are exercises ar ranged fo1 the purpose of setting forth the importance anu strength of labor. In a great many places it is a day given over to pleasures of various kinds. day of sports. a brief vaca- ton or an added period of rest.
 Locally 1t is day when organized labor joins hands with the Agricui- rural society of the county for the making Of the opening day of the an- 1uaI fair a pronounced success and there can be no question but what it H=s contributed much to that end in the several years that the plan has been followed
 Labor day this year finds the coun- c-y endeavoring to throw off the ef- 1urdened with unusual conditions and t- cannot fail to be realized that there is duty developing upon organized la Dor as well as everyone else to meet the situa ton in a sound and sensible manner. to realize the dangers of the radicals and to resolve that it shall nor be used as the catspaw of dan- gercus clements for the purpose of making the conditions throughout the country worse instead of better.
 Labor has demonstrated it's loyalty throughout the war and there Is only reason to believe that it will be con- tinued T. is certainly needed during the period Of readjustn1ent even as it while we were fighting. Evidence has been furnished through long head ed leaders that the wild agitators are cot going to be allowed to stampede labor and there are reasons to believe that they not only represent the sen tirnent Of the rank and file but that they will be upheld. and there Is no better time than Labor day for the ranks to give thought to such reso- Iution and insist that labor stand sol idly back of America nisn
