Second Wind.

Every real boy knows what second
wind is. The athlete who is well
trained gets his second wind just
about the time the poorly trained
runner drops out "winded," about
three minutes after the start of
race, in the third quarter mile stretch.
It's a grand and glorious feeling, if
/ may borrow the expression of Mr..
Briggs. 1t is sudden relief from
the distress or agony of breathless-
ness, the movements of the chest
and belly being suddenly. freed of
seeming restraint and amplified, the
excursions of the diaphragm being
increased, and the ventilation OF the
blood by the lungs being consequent
ly improved.
At the time Of second wind the
right ventrcle of the heart, which
pumps blood to the lungs. expands
date the increased volume of blood
being pumped. 1t is right here that
the vital question of athletic train
ing in youth intrudes itself. If the
athlete has been intelligently trained,
under the control and direction Of a
scientific physical director and not
the uneducated amateur or profess
sional trainer that too often holds
such a post, the heart is hyper
trophied and the enlarged heart
muscle is free to recover from the
or dilation. The poorly
trained heart muscle lacks this vital
ly essential capacity and the youth
who undertakes such contests with
the inadequate training which the
quack trainer" gives endangers his
whole future health and career.
No boy of high school age should
ever be permitted to enter a mile
race, for even 440-yard or 400-meter
race, for these are tests of mans
and the most careful
training is necessary for safety. to
say nothing of success in such con-
tests, and rarely can the growing
how have the physical training these

Old Orchard. He did his best to make
her happy.
But Mrs. Skinner didn't need to be
made happy. She couldn't have been
happier. To her the Great World
was a very wonderful and beautiful
place. Under her We're four precious
eggs, and surrounding her were the
walls Of the one little house in all the
Old Orchard which she had set her
heart on. She had almost forgotten
that Timmy the Flying Squirrel had
ever had possession Of that little
house.
So the Skimmers were happy. And
seeing their happiness, all their
neighbors were happy too.

BEAUTY CHATS
The Teeth.

1t seems like nagging to repeat
month after month the same advice:
Brush your teeth night and morning,
and every six months go TO a dentist
to have them professionally cleaned
and any necessary dental work done.
But that is the way, and the only way,
to have beautiful and lasting teeth.
No face can be attractive if ones
teeth are ugly. discolored or obviously
false. Then, too. IL the teeth are so
neglected that they must be pulled,
the gums naturally shrink and the
checks sink into hollows that make
the face look at least ten years
older.
These points are vital. The tooth
brush must be of the best quality and
moderately stiff. The teeth must be
brushed up and down so the bristles
can go between the teeth, for that is
where food collects and cavities form.
If the digestion is upset the teeth
will need more than just ordinary
care. In addition to the nightly
brushing, a mouth wash is desirable.
There is nothing better than plain
salt and water which may be used
either hot or cold, as salty water Is
antiseptic.
The salty water is good for acidity:

How can peace and prosperity be
restored in Italy and in Europe
through international co-opera tion?'
The first prize was awarded equal,
to Prof. r. Fedozzi and Prof. Cine

to V. Cento, author of plan $40. The
second prize was awarded to Sig

tuted in Great Britain, France and

fered for the best proposals submit
ted in each country.
In general survey of the Italian
competition yesterday the committee
said:
LAS far as the italian situation in
particular is concerned. all plans
agree that there are two chief issues
of an international character. OF
which the first Is reparations of war
damages, forming part of the general
question OF interallied debts. All
effarts of the Italian nation to re-
establish a normal balance will re-
main without results as long as this
question remains unsolved Italy's
solvency in relation to Europe and
especially to America is paralyzed by
the present state of affairs. The
Dawes plan is considered A good be-
ginning of the work of bringing order
into the situation; but it should be
followed by a solution of the ques-
ton OF reparations and debts"
