NEARLY ALL WISH
TO BE BEAUTIFUL
Women Must Exercise to Re-
tain Figure, Says Expert.

LONDON, Feb. Am America I
found that nearly all women wish to be
beautiful, and realize that the first thing
is to be healthy. well developed and
strong
THE reason why this is more so in
America than it is in England is because
they are idolized by their men, and there
fore try to be at their best"
This declaration was made by Miss
Maude O'Dell, who has just returned from
a visit to America. She claims to be the
worlds best proportioned woman.
"If every woman gave ten minutes a
day to the right exercise, in three months
time she would be so well and so changed
that she would not know herself" she
said. at is not easy to tell woman
what to do unless you know her pecu-
iarities, but there is a simple exercise
which every woman may benefit from.
Many women suffer from indigestion and
stomach troubles. This Is because they
do not exercise the muscles of the stom-
ach.
"A woman's corsets should be made OF
muscle, not whalebone. These muscles
are not used, and hence these troubles
from which women usually suffer.
practically every woman" she de-
clared, -can have perfect figure by
proper exercise. But she must remember
that proportion is everything, and she
must select her exercises with care and
cultivate the right muscles. One part of
the body over -deyeloped is ugly and use
less"

DOBBIN NEVER
TO JOIN DODO
Canadian Official Insists Auto
Can't Fill Place.

CALGARY, Alberta. Feb. 4,-senti-
mental folk have shed many hgurative
tears over the ultimate fate OF the horse,
which, they believe, will disappear in the
program Of human work before the
motor-driven vehicle. II. S. Arkell, live
stock commissioner Of Canada, takes an
opposite view. He declared at the con-
g-ess Of the Western Canada Livestock
Union here that those who have tears to
shed would better shed them over the
ultimate fate OF the motor vehicle, espe-
cially on the farm.
Mechanical power" said Mr.. Arken,
will never supplant Old Dobbin on the
farm. Far from falling of in numbers,
the horse population Of the continent Is
increasing. I look for steady develop
ment in horse breeding that Will, in my
opinion, seriously affect the automobile
and truck business. Motor trucks are
valuable asset In the worlds work, but
there are certain kinds Of work, not only
on the farm, but in the city, which
trucks cannot DO and which only good
team of horses can do. Don't be afraid
that the horse will join the dodo and
pterodactyl in extinction. He will con-
tinue forever to be numbered among
the most important factors In human
labor AS tho worlds human population
increases the horse population viii keep
pace with it,"

Champ Pedestrian Thrills
Huge ThrOng in Fast DOUn-
tOUn Hike Exhibition.

Mayor Charles Jewett started George
Brown, champion professional walker Of
the world, and a squad of local pedes-
TRANS on a three and one-half mile jaunt
from in front of the city hall at 1913
yesterday afternoon and 81 minutes and
40 Of q second later Brown, travelling
alone, reported at B. F. keith's Theater,
where he is filling a weeks engag cement
in treRdmiu exhibitions.
The largest crowd that has lined In
dfan6pOlis streets for any sort OF an event
for some time watched Brown step on
the distance, and II was all the police
could do to keep the crowd back on
Pennsylvania street from Vermont street
to keith's, where the dGshy pedestrian
staged the clssslest sprint to which Indi-
annapolis has ever been treated. After the
exhibition Brown extended hearty thanks
TO city officials and Chief OF Police Jerry
Kinney for the manner in which they
eooperated with him to make the walk q
success.
FAST THE FOR
STREET WALKING.
Browns time for the three and one half
miles was less than a minute over the
worlds record for the distance. This
record was esta blished on a ". ing
track and under the most ideal condi-
lions. Yesterday, however, the walk
speedster stepped IL off over none too
smooth streets and under conditions
which were far from being ideal Brown 5
worlds record for three miles is 20 min
utes II seconds.
Representatives of the Indianapolis
Boy Scouts and several aspiring Indian
apolis walkers faced the starter with
Brown, but his wonderful getaway took
the heart out of most of them. The only
competitor" within hailtng distance OF
the champion when he crossed the finish
line was a yOungster who tried to follow
the pace al q dog trot, and did fairly
good job Of il.
The numerous curb parties found
by the wonderful cl0ck-like movement OF
his body and rewarded him with round
after round Of applause.
ALWAYS READY
FOR CHALLENGERS-
Before becoming q professional walker
Brown established amateur records for
all distances from one TO ten miles, which
still stand unbroken. He now holds all
professional records up to 100 miles. He
is open to challenges from aIy walkers
In the world at all times.
Brown, since his walking career be
gan, has started in 1T3 races and been
defeated only four times in three Of
which he worked against handicaps.
Brown has never been bothered by any
one breaking any of his world s records
for any distance.
Saturday afternoon Brown will spend
an hour of his time before his stage rer-
Torrance with the Indianapolis Boy
Scouts. During this time he Will lecture
on and demonstrate what he has proven

Constantinople Turks who passed by
the club on the Rue BOsphoroUs had
their olfactOry nerves tickled by the

smoked by the American gobs frequent

that the Turks have frequent swapping

ing Turkish tobacco for American. The
Turks pronounce the American tobacco
superior to their own and the gobs relish
the change, and the tobacco entente helps
to preserve the peace between the Yanks
