THE ATOMIC ABDOMINAL WALL
 NO.

It would seem absurd to say that coal miners needed any special exer- else, wouldn't it? Yet Doctor Chesney Ramage, who evidently is an exam1n- ing physician of coal miners at Fair mount, West Virginia, says that they do!
 Don't put this article down now be- cause you are not mine worker. This is going to be very valuable to you no matter what your work is.
 fThe word atomic means without tone. So an atomic abdominal wal! should mean relaxed abdominal muscles. This is a condition which is exceedingly common.
 Doctor Ramage found that 1t was quite common even among healthy coal miners. If healthy coal miners, with all of the exercise that they get, can still have relaxed abdominal walls you can see how easy it would be for those who have no physical work at all to have this condition.
 Now, relaxed abdominal muscles also mean relaxed abdominal organs, for without the powerful assistance of the supporting wall of the ao- domen, the fragments holding 0p the moveable organs in the abdomen the stomach, intestines, liver. and spleen in the male, and those organs and the internal geperative organs in the fema1e-are also apt to become relaxed and drag down more or less.
 If this state goes ito a certain de- gree the condition is known as enter optosis (entero, entrails; ptosis, fal- len) The disorders and discomfort arising from this condition are much worse than its name.
 Doctor Ramage. in an article in the American Medical Journel of June. 1922, says that he had a large num- Der of strong, healthy coal miners who came to him complaining of all of the ills in Materia Medica, and they all had in common this one thing-the atomic abd dominal wall While they had enormou biceps- arm musclesEand chest muscles and strong muscles of the back and thighs their abdominal muscles were flabby.
 Doctor Ramage accounted for some of these cases by the fact that

use of lemon or any other bleaching lotion.
 Lemon juice is also 8 ham1ess bleach for the hair. The juice of half a lemon in the final rinse water of the ssampoo will keep the hair soft and fluffy it is inclined to be oily and it will bleach the hair a shade lighter particularly if it is dried in the sun.
 A 1ittele pure lemon juice dabbed on corns or warts night or morning will take away all soreness and soon heal them.
 Mary Aft would be advisable for you to join a gymnasium and learn to stand and walk correctly, to improve your carriage so that the knock-knees would not be so notiee- able.
 Adele T:-The hair on your lip can be bleached with peroxide, and if any of the hair is coarse enough to disfugure you, extract it with a blunt-end tweezers.
 Irene S.:-With brown hair grey eyes and a muddy complexion, you should dress in co1ors that will givo life to the skin. Among these will be all the shades of red except scar let, all the shades of brown except the golden shade. Bright blues and rose will also be good choices, but if you cleared your skin you would have a limitless selection.

K9 Diet and Health ssaanyass, By Lulu Hunt Peters. MD .aror Qf Diet aaith Ksg to Ae Calris

at some time these men had been injured and during that period had not used their abdominal muscles. and they had continued this non-use of them.)
 Some of the diseases these men thought they were suffering from
 were appendicitis, gall stones. ana gastric ulcer They all had chronic constpation and nervousness. General abdominal discomfort after meals and headaches were also complained of.
 Great care was taken in the pf1y-
 sical examination to see that there was no local disease and when there
 was none, the cure was affected ai- m ost entirely by exercises which de-
 velop the abdominal muscles.
 Dr. Ramage found the best exercise
 was that Of lying on the floor and
 rising to a sitting position without the use of the hands. This, prac-
 tised faithfully morning and night,
 caused surprising results. The abdom-
 ina1 muscles developed very rapidly, the bowels became more regular at once and other symptoms cleared up gradually.
 Many of you have written to ms asking if it is necessary for you to
 exercise if you have heavy physical work. Will yoO please take lesson
 from this? Those of you who are suffering from constipation also please take a lesson from this, and | those who have an accumulation of | fat so that your tummy is your pet aversion, also take lesson from this. The development of the abdominal muscles is not consistent with the de- ve1opment of fat on the abdomen. l In beginning this exercise, which is 1 one of the best of our exercise and | one which I have recommended fre- quently for everyone. begin very grad l uslly and stop when you are tired. | rest a short time and begin again. If this were practiced up to fifty times, night and morning, it should keep the a bd omina1 wall firm, and the resultant benefits to the abdominal 1 organs would soon be manifested. 1 Begin today with five. Increase | one a day to 50 or more. Let me ' know your results.

Lemons Have Many Uses

AoHlOuS nave N1dny uses
 Among the best bleaching lotions are those made from lemons. Yet few people avail themselves of this be- cause they are so familiar with this fruit in cooking that it's merit as a cosmetic is slighted. Every woman knows the value of the handy piece of lemon in the kitchen to remove stains from the hands why not apply this knowledge to bleaching the com plexion? Sunburn can always be re- moved with lemon juice, while moth patches and freckles will often yield to persistent treatment with this acid.
 For an excellent bleaching cosmetic I have called Lemon Squash, squeeze out the juice from several lem ons, grind up the pulp. rfnd and seeds as fine as you can, add the juice, ana strain all through a fine wire sieve. This can be rubbed on the skin any time during the day and should be left on for 1 5 minutes or so.
 If the skin is sensitive and the lemon stings, dilute it with rose water or plain soft water, such as rain water. The bleaching will take a longer time, but it will be just as effective. I have known of moth patch and freckles removed by the following method: To one part lemon juice add four parts water. and dab ble on the face night and morning and allow to dry on the skin. use for a week, then discontinue for week, then use again. This mixture may also be used in the place of toilet water, when the face is heated and soiled after a long drive CT other exposure, in which case it will be found to be both cleansing and r-- freshing.
 If the skin is inclined to be dry, very little bit of cream should be ruhhed into the pores. following the

SYNOPSIS.

SYNOPSIS.
 At the foot Of the cliffs of the Ganados a man lay on a shel- tered ledge. Nearby was his pony. He had been so long without water, his tongue was swollen. After a while a com panion arrives with water and they both drink. The first man then drops off to sleep. The other pretends to divide the water and grub and goes away. The sleeping man gets up ana discovers his partners treason. But he merely laughs and pushed on to a spring close at hand.
 Brixton Havens, young, naughty and headstrong, is riding through the woods and nearly runs down Mir. Morehard, a new tenant oi his mothers. Angry words pass between them, and young Ravens determines to put Morehard out of his house. So, in the evening, he goes to the Morehard place on Bluebrook. On reaching the gate, he secs girl in the garden and his curiosity Is aroused by her peculiar mechanical step ana a little case that hangs from her SnOulQer. The SIr1 SecS AAAAI cAAAN walks toward him.
 Ravens left Morehard's place without carrying out his purpose. Next day he calls again and is invited into the house. In a short time Ravens and Emma More hard are married. Then one day Ravens meets a stranger in the woods who so angered him that he hit the man across the face with his whip. Later that same day, he finds Morehard dyan8, shot down by an unknown per- son. All efforts to trace the murderer are vain.
 Some time after Morehard's death, Emma gives Ravens paper which her father had given her and had told her would make her rich some day. He took "the paper and saw that pricked into it's surface were tiny punctures which seemed to have been made by the teeth of some metal instrument and the little perforations were run into a figure.'

CHAPTER V WU


 I'd covered three miles from Sher- 'idan City at the running walk, with a pack-horse beside me, when I ran into Reedy Gibbs. It happened this way:
 I thought I had the road alone as I got to the wooded turn leading to RioTl1e, when through the trees came the sound of a hoarse voice singing:
 "He:gh-ho, Milly, don't hole me
 back,
 I'm gonna get rich on resin
 Heigh-ho, Molly, what dye
 think?
 I'm hikin' fr' a mine O. zinc"
 Its only some jack miner" I thought as I listened to the words; but I held back my ponies, hoping the fellow would pass by without seeing me. You see. I hadn't for gotten my father-in-law's warning, although I had no idea of what it amounted to.
 But I wasn't going to run even the chance of a mix-up.
 Now I could hear the drumming of hoofs, and passing on the road be- low me came a man on bronco, red faced and rough. but a type of the country about here. He lifted up his voice again:
 "I'm trampin' .rails from end to end,
 An in every tramp I find a friend
 When I've made my pile, yo'll
 find me back,
 Fo' Pm gonna get rich on a rosin
 jack"
 \ There was a lit to the rough melody of the old rover, and I imag- 1ned he might have been pretty good lsongster in his younger days. Sud- denly he stops, sees me through the trees, and cries out: How dy there; on yore way to Rioville?" Caught like this, I had to urge my ponies down into the road and accept a pal
 Jack Minin'?" he asked, curious ly, as he looked me and my outfit over.
 'tNo, no; just on a little cattle bus iness." I lied easily. He looked doubtful at this, Tor, | after all, we weren't in the cattle country, and evidently he didn't be- l lieve me. But the next minute his face cleared. and he observed as we | rode along: Reckon yo're Iookin' fo' a change O scenery. I aim to grt a little O that myself up in tn Black l Rocks. I'm Reed Gibbs" he added. Reedy Gibbs was entertaining enough, God knows, and at any other time l guess I'd have enjoyed his company on the road. But right now I made up my mind to give him the | slip the first chance I could. 1 He was an old-timer, according to his own account at least. and if you listened to his talk with half an ear you'd soon been convinced that he'd | played lively part at Humboldt, Uvada, and Goldfeld. He seemed to know all the seamy histories Of the mining countries. Reedy was lit up. there was no doubt about that He showed it when we came to rise in the road. @Whoops' Duddy'' he shouted. ris-

clerks, merchantS, trampS, ana oio- timers were rushing to where the formerly despised jack was to be found.
 Well, that didn't help me any. thought I, because if Mcr elaard had struck the richest mine on earth, what good would it do me if I didn't know where 1t was? I was handling the photograph when suddenly my heart gave a bound and the box nearly slipped from my fingers.
 ''Brix, what on earth's the matter?' % demanded my wife.
 "Oh, nothing,'' T replied non- ing the interior of the pacing instru- ment. The sheet of paper clamped to the board is covered with a pane of ground glass, on which the operator marks any details of his course, such as houses, trees, and the like. Now I had just detected two faint pencil-marks on the glass cover, | and, holding it up to the light. made out the two words: Lizard Lake" i What was it Morehard had said? :? I'd puzzled over his words many a time, although I never dared mention l them to Emma:
 l Havens-keep away-keep away l from the lake-death in the tracks 1 tear them up." And then again: 1 "Danger-to you both-SlnsmIth- | the lizard-''
 l What had the engineer meant l Wasn't he warning me to keep away | from Lizard Lake, because there was | the fear of death in the tracks of the i photographic chart. and he urged me to tear it up because it meant danger ! to Emma and me?
 l Again the old suspicion flashed ltthrough my mind. Morehead had hidden himself in our country dis
 trict with his daughter. He had 1 located a mine, but the discovery had
 involved him in some deadly peril.
 My little girl knew nothing of these
 matters, and I wouldn't for the world
 have had her suspect that her father | was murdered. Hunting among More
 hard's maps, I found one of the
 Uvada mining region. Right to the | dot. There was the location of Lizard l Lake. I took the engineers char | and clamDed it on the drawing-board | of the photograph. As it lay under
 the ground glass the written words
 Lizard Lake" stood right above the i lowest oerforations in the sheet Of | paper.
 What was the answer? Pace out

 miles north of Lizard Lake I would
