GlOriying Yourself
By Alicia Hart

The woman who slulnps forward or, worse yet, forces her shoulders backward until she has an exagger- ated hollow in the middle of her spinal column simply can't be truly beautiful. Shiny hair, clear skin and sparkling eyes are important, of course, but never for a minute lose sight of the fact that your posture has great deal to do with the im- pression you make on others.
 You should practice posture ex- ercises to correct round shoulders, protruding stomach, often caused by hollow in the back, and sag ging chin. Lie flat on the floor with knees drawn up and weight of the legs on balls of the feet. Lift the tip of your spinal column upward from the floor, meanwhile making the rest of the backbone fit snugly against the hard surface. Keep shoulders and neck perfectly fiat. Breathe deeply, drawing stomach in and up. This of course, helps you to get your backbone flat.
 When you stand, you should maintain the position you were in on the floor. Stomach should be drawn in, shoulders square and of the spine tilted forward so hips do not stick out.
 Whenever you walk, stand, dance or sit, imagine that the top of your head is being pulled straight upward by a heavy cord suspended from the ceiling. Make believe that the cord lifts not only your head but your entire body.
 When you sit in chair, see that the center of your back and the lower end of your spine are flat against the chair. Don't press shoul- ders against it. Incidentally, legs look much more graceful when crossed above-not below-the knee.

 There is a naive notion prevalent among the laity that physicians on the stan of a hospital receive sal- aries for their services to hospital patients.
 This notion enables many well-to- do cadgers to evade paying for med ical or surgical treatment, and the widespread practice of working this racket is a factor of no small inn portance in the high cost of sick ness for honest people who prefer to pay their just debts. It is scan- dal in all large metropolitan areas, this cadging of medical and surgical treatment by the dishonest well-to- do citizens. It is high time that some publicity were given to the abuse, and the rights of the tax payers, who, of course, carry the burden in the long run, were pro- tected.
 The evil grows out of the unwise policy of turning public hospitals over to the control, direct or indi- rect, of politicians. In politics, as the game is played in this country, machinery is indispensable, and the politician with a job to. hold or an aspiration to power, must build and maintain his machine, and patron age is the fuel which runs a politi- cal machine.
 The chief of the surgical staff in one large metropolitan hospital per- Sonally does more than 400 major operations in his six months of service each year. Two juniors work ing under him work all night every night in the year and do from 10 to IA emergency operations every night. The actual value of the sur- gical work done by this one doctor, estimating fee of $250 for 8 major operation and that is certainly con- seryative lis $1O00O0. Yet the doctor receives not one penny for his work, nor is he permitted by law to exact fee for any work he does in the hospital, even though the hospital discovers in some instances that the patient is well able to pay and col-

 This fig pudding has been served for the last twenty-five winters in our family, first by my mother and then by me. The recipe, dated De- cember 3, 1910, in my scrapbook is Cousin Maude's. A grand way to use up leftover baking powder bis- cults, this pudding.
 Fig Pudding
 One-half pound figs, ga cup suet, l cup sugar, 2 eggs, 2 1-2 cups bis- cult crumbs (either soda or baking powder), teaspoon salt, 1-2 cup milk, teaspoon baking powder.
 Put figs and suet through food chopper. Add sugar and eggs well beaten. Add crumbs and salt. Dis solve baking powder in milk and stir into mixture. Turn into Q well greased mold and steam three hours. Serve with whipped cream.
 In winter instead of baking just one pan of rolls, like to do a whole batch of bread, with hot rolls for luncheon or dinner and pecan rolls for breakfast.
 Whole Wheat Bread and Variations One quart scalded milk, IA cup brown sugar, tablespoons salt, 3 tablespoons shortening, 2 cakes compressed yeast, 6 cups whole wheat flour, 6 cups bread flour.
 Pour scalded milk over sugar, salt and shortening. Cool to luke warm, add crurnbled yeast cakes and stir until dissolved. Add flour and work it in thoroughly. Knead on a floured board until smooth. Form into ball and put in a well greased mixing bowl. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in bulk.
 Divide dough into four pieces Make two into loaves. Put into well greased pans and let rise in a warm place until double in bulk Bake in moderate oven (350 de- UranS F fOY fifty Troif1I1tac
 Use one of the pieces to make clover leaf rolls. Pinch off little pieces of dough and make into smooth balls. Put three in each well greased muffin pan, let rise un- til double in bulk and bake thirty minutes in a moderate oven.

 So help me-" said Jeckers des- perately, T don't know who they were. I knew this one guy = that is. I'd seen him before -b but I never knew his real name. All I knew was they called him Wingy."
 And you didn't even have no- tion who he was, or why any of the others were?"
 Larry lowered over him, looking down menacingly. Jeckers looked wildly about him as if seeking way to escape, and met only the stony gazes of the other agents. "How about it-quick!" rapped Larry.

 q might've figured" Jeckers twisted his hands in agony of ap- prehension. lone man was big and red-haired. I figured he looked like Red Jackson-I mean like the picture I've seen in the papers. and So-"
 "All right. We'll let it go at that. How about the man who was Shot?"
 "He was tall and light-haired. and tanned" said Doc Jeckers, ob- viously relieved to be through with the painful business of identifying the nations most badly-wanted criminal, who was notorious for the punishment he meted out to people so reckless as to give the authorities information about him. "Youngish chap, looked like he might've been cowboy or some thing. He'd been shot"
 He lapsed into medical jargon to describe the wound; the gist of it was that although the man had been seriously weakened by loss of blood the wound had not been in- fected. no bones or vital organs had been hit, and recovery should be relatively speedy. He had bathed and dressed the wound, adminis- tered shot of antitetanuS serum, and then taken his departure.
 He added that he had inquired if he should return to look at the wound the next day. The red- haired man, he said, had countered by asking if the wounded man could endure an auto trip; and on being told that he could endure it., although it would not be very good for him, the red-headed man had said that they probably would not be in Chicago 24 hours hence. Then the doctor had gone back to his home.
 A few more questions satisfied Larry that there was no more use- ful information to be had from Doc Jeckers. He tossed the little pill box in the mans lap with a con- temptuous Here you are, then" and withdrew to Mathews office, while Matthews arranged for Jeck- CTS transfer to jail.
 "We're still about two jumps be- hind them" said Larry, as the Eve agents sped along the drive in their car, 10 minutes later. Maybe we'll learn something. though"

| The Democrats nave not always
been right. The Republicans have
often been wrong.
When the Articles of Confed-
Grafton under which the colonies
fought the Revolution had proven
inadequate to meet the demands
of the new nation, a convention
was called to meet in Philadelphia
for the purpose of drafting and
proposing amendments to the then
existing Constitution, which pro-
posed amendments were to be Of
fered to the states for their adop-
ton or rejection. The delegates
to that convention, which assem-
bled in May, 1887, to pursue its
task, had no authority to do more
than draft and propose amend
ments to the Articles of Confed-
Grafton. Nevertheless, it soon ap-
peared to the delegates that the
Articles of Confederation could
not be so amended as to meet the
needs Of a rapidly decaying and
incompetent government. The con-
vention, therefore, disregarded its
limited authority and proceeded to
draft and propose a NEW consti-
tuition.
1t is conceded that the ablest
men were delegates to that con-
vention. We think now that no
more able body of statesmen ever
assembled. But the result of their
labour was a compromise not sat
isfactory to the majority of the
delegates and only some 80 out of
