Muscle Masaaue in Tickets.

AS an aftermath of undeYnourish- ment during the war period, rickets has become a common disease among children in Germany. To stimulate the .fiabby muscles of these little pa tients, without risking malfOrmation of the softened bones, many curious devices have come into use, according to an illustrated story appearing in the August issue of Popular Mechanics magazine Tn treating the jaw and. neck muscles, for example. the subject is laid on an inclined board, while the nurse stands at the head and manipu-. lates a harness of two straps.

Steggs of San Francisco, who inherited $4OO,OOO from his uncle in 1865, and not being used to handling money in large quantities, started in to spend it freely. He went on trip to Europe and spent most of his time at the Albambra music hall in London. and launched a project to start the New York Alhambra." His idea was approved by a number of amusement people, and he hired hundreds of them to come to the United States. But his money ran out and he left his party on a boat in New Yolk bay and dis. appeared.

GYMNASTICS YOUNG AND OLD
By Felix J. O'Neill

Dy EUA4-A OS v 1SSAAA
 Copyright 1921 "Of what use are athletics Said old Professor Kan. "A boy will never use them When he Tecomes man. What tases will a man run Before he goes to bed? Where will he turn handspring, Or stand upon his head? What football tackle needs he To ope his office door? When will he run sack Tace Upon his parlor floor? We'll te a race of dunces If this keeps on, you'll find, By overlooking muscle, And under-feeding mind." Now that's the rusty doctrine 8 Of old Professor Kan, Which I have we'll exploded Since I became a man. I need my school athletics AS much this very day As when I rode 8 wild bull, And slid of loads of hay. You see, I've sent my daughter To tend a college school. Some say I've done wise thing. Some say that I'm a fool. Some say she'll be lady. Some say she'll be dunce. However it will turn out I thought I'd try it once. Today while I was taking My after dinner smoke I got her first sweet letter. A big athletic joke! Page one was in the right place. I read that sitting down. But how to find the next page Caused me to stare and frown. 1 could not see connection Twixt pages one and two Till I had turned a cartwheel AS circus riders do. And then I somersaulted, Then stood upon my head By dint of good old school stunts Page four was found and read. AS long as sun and moon shine, And girls can wield. pen, The acrobatics taught to boys Will be of use to men!

Waiting for lt to Move.

An old Cornish woman who had never before travelled by rail went to a country station to catch a train. She sat herself down on a seat in the station, and after sitting there for about two hours, the station-master came up to her and asked where she was going. On her telling him, he said:
 "Why, my good woman. the train has just gone, and there isn't another for long time!"
 "Why, lor'!" says the old lady, q thought the whole eonsarn moved P -"HumOurs of Parish" (John Lane).

Panama was sultry. )

. It had been very hot, oppressive day, and now that night had come the expected breeze had failed to blow and no relief was felt. An excited native pounded on the door of the American consul general until the drOwsy office boy begrudgingly answered his knocks and relieved him of note for his mas ter.
 It was an urgent summons to the consul to secure the release of one of his cCuntrymen from the Panama lookup. This was soon accomplished; and the consul general, finding his compatriot charged with no more se- riOus crime than that of carrying a suitcase on the streets of Panama after dark. invited him to his office and par take of his hospitality before return ing to his hotel.
 The visitor proved to be a mining . engineer returning to the United States from a trip through Chile and Peru. AS they sat and chatted, he remarked:
 '"rhis is my first experience in being arrested, or in being in the clutches of i the law, although I once wore a con- ! vict suit for few hours. T was never so glad of anything as was to get rid i of it. Y,
 "It was some years ago, down in southern Tennessee. I had been study i inglthe geological features of the iron mines in that part of the country, and | had almost completed my stay, when one morning, while taking my custom ary swim, lost my clothes and found in their place a convict suit. It hap pened that had discovered small cave on the bank of the Sequatchie river, and it was my custom to dis robe in the mouth of this cave and plunge into the river.
 "On this particular morning, when through with my swim, found that my clothes had been stolen, and in their place was g large, dirty suit of convict clothes, probably left there by some negro convict who had made his escape from the iron mines, for in that country cOnvicts are worked in the mines. After exhausting myself mak- ing all kinds of noises, l finally over- came my repugnance sufficiently to don this suit and start for the house where I was staying, and every mo- ment of the way ! was terrified by my imagination, expecting to be shot or pursued by dogs, or some other hor- rible fate.
 : "When l reached the house had a hard time to convince the folks of my identity. never recovered the clothes, nor the money which was in them, and have always wondered what became of the convict who stole them. sup pose he has been sent to Jail many times since"

This story has its lessons to farmers everywhere. There are some 400 na- tional business men's organizations, all supported literally, all doing ef- fective work for their membership. Every big business has had na- tional organization except farming Food spectators believe in organi- 1ation for themselves, but not for the farmers. They hope you will quit the Farm Bureau.
 Our advice to you is to stick to the Farm Bureau Federation. 1t is pro- ceeding steadily and surely. It al- ready has accomplished some fine results. 1t will accomplish many more if still more farmers get back

Twas hiSh. HIS first thought was q mat little green f1le-box ;; his next Of his convict clothes. Tightly he clasped the little green box to his breast and murmured silent prayer; then, stag Rering to the entrance of the cave, saw spread upon the ground before him q pile of clothing. .>
 It was another miracle. No doubt remained. This clothing had been sent to him by the same power which. had freed him from the ball and chain.
 It was a sorrowful and fearful group that greeted him as he entered the old home. The joy at his appearance was marred by a shadow which his re- turn could not dispel. The mortgage on the old home and its few acres was to be foreclosed today, and the little place was to pass to strangers.
 Big Ben listened in silence to the woes of the family, and suddenly lift" ing his head with an air of newborn confidence, he laid before them the lit- tic green hle-bOx and said:
 Nanny, don't you worry. De same power what gave me desc will take care of de morgige. De Lawd doan' punish his fnnercent chillun widout cause. How much am dat morgige9"
 'It am mos a hundred dollars" re- piled his mother.
 Big Ben confidently replied:
 Nanny, if de Lawd gave me dose files and desc close, he sartin suah ain't CT gOin' to let dis home be sold for no hundred dollars. hain't looked tru de pockets of desc close yet. MebbO he's already sended us de money"
 Suiting the word with action, he has, tily commenced a search of his new clothes. and brought to light pile of pencils, letters, and small change, and, at last, a black leather wallet. Jt contained S12O.
 "I knOwed it, nanny; here's de money for de morgige man. Go pay off de mOrgige and gin $2O to de par son, and wid de small change get sump- fin to eat. I'm starvin'."
 And today, over the fireplace of that little cabin are suspended a small green fl4e-bOx and an empty leather wallet, which no money could purchase from that family.
