the virtue Of making the stomach
and abdomen smaller.
Another excellent exercise that
does not make an overdrsft upon the
strength is standing with the chest
well up and lungs expanded, arms
straight out AZ the sides and on a
level with the shoulders. While hold
ing the arms thus relax the hands
Imagine them hanging loosely from
the wrists and heavy. Practice shak-
ing them round and round for several
moments as II you were trying to
shake them off
To make the body supple and at
the same time TO reduce the hips
place q bath mat or blanket upon
the floor and lie flat upon your back
without q cushion or 6 pillow for
the head Try slowly rising to a sit
ting position without help OF the
hands. Let them hang loosely and
relaxed at the sides.
Also, reverse this and lie upon the
with the aid OF the hands until YOU
are practically kneeling.
A fourth exercise may be taken
upon the bed, but IL Is better to take
IL upon the floor. The bed yields
with the body while the solid floor
offers a certain amount OF resistance.
Again lie fiat upon the back.
Raise the right leg slowly until the
leg forms & right angle with the
trunk OF the body. Imagine that the
sole Of the foot reaches the ceiling.
Press the foot with all your strength
against this imaginary ceiling. Re
peat this half a dozen times. Make
the same movement with the left foot.

posed marriage 10 me, but I am

If the young man nags at you and
shows that he IS actually OF a mean

then you're taking a pretty unsafe
risk when you trust your lies hap

you manage TO irritate and annoy
him. suppose you try 10 s0othe him.

effort TO please him TO calm him
down and 10 make his calmness your
object-he'n conquer his temper out

Responsibility and Counsel.

A 5 the measure OF the Republican victory ex-
u pands with each return from dilatory
- States, so, too, the burden OF responsibility
upon that party for giving effect to the popular
mandate is enhanced
A party that has won the Presidency BY an un-
paralicled majority both popular and in the cleo
toral college which has increased its majority in
the Senate from d dubious two to an assured ten
which has a majority Of over ITO in the House
OF Representatives. will have absolutely excuse
for any failure to put through whatever program
it may determine upon
Ever since the close OF the war the nation has
suffered from divided responsibility Vt time
when the government should have been able to
junction as a coherent whole we have had an ad-
mini>traton loggcrheads with Congress-. and d
Senate closely divided, because OF peculiar lac
celebrity and certainty.
During the campaign each party has accused the
other OF failure reduce expenditures, re-estab-
lish business methods, to do away with all wartime

notoriously and to the decided detriment OF the
nation But the political accusations were, as they
apt to be- the partisan bunk" For

1t is We think, fortunate alke ior that party

thoroughly pledged to the policy OF taking counsel

a popular majority OF 100000 means that the

that they have revolted with unprecedented unan-

The Districts Job.

Several members Of the District Committees OF
- House and Senate went down in the landslide of
last Tuesday-notaby Senators John Walter Smith
and James D. Phean.
But while lamenting the political mortality
among its friends the District OF Columbia hopes
that by the time another Presidential election comes
the fortunes Of the great and beautiful City Of
Washington will be no longer subject to the votes
OF constituents in California Mississippi, Texas or
the State OF Washngton-to only few Of
the distant communities the Representatives from
which the duty Of governing this city has been
entrusted.
The political status OF the District OF Columbia
is anomaly-a negation OF the very fundamental
propositions which nation is founded
Its people are taxed without representation.
The womankind OF the nation-outside OF WASH
ington-have just won victory in their long fight
escape the political injustice which classed them
with criminals the insane and the inmates Of
charitable institutions persons deprived OF the
franchise But the nearly 100000 people OF the
District OF Columbia, women and alike, are
still within tins classification lar the right to

The situation is condemned everywhere it is dis

and Senators who are avcrsc to surrendering the
power OF Congress over the District. In opin-
