A slcture flashed before my
eyes with photographic fidelity
that of Robert Savarin, falling
almost lifeless at Lillian's teet
after his quest ot the man before
me. She had nursed him bacjt
to life and then bad made it
worthless by sending him away
from her because of her fancied
duty to the man whose only. bond

A sob rose in my throat as
thought of the contrast between
the almost Invalided artist, spent
in Lillian's service, wnom i

knew she loved with her whole
royal; heart, and this physically
magnificent wastrel whom she
loathed, but - to whom she felt

IS THIS PROPHECY?
Editor Statesman: Is this
prophecy?
I was scanning over a little
book entitled "In Flanders Field,"
by John Macrae. This book eon-i
tains not only the now famous1
and popular song, "In Flanders
Field," but also a few more ot
McCrae's ' poems which were
written on the battlefields ot
France during the period of the
war from his entrance in 1914 to
his death in 191.
Dr. Mc8Crae was in th war al
most continually from the day of
his enlistment to the day ot bis
death, either on the firing line or
In field hospital service. He died
ot pneumonia January 21. 1J1S.
At the general hospital at Wimer
eux and was burled in the ceme
tery nearby "with full military
pomp." This was more than nine
months before the armistice.
This little book not only con
tains the poems but also a char
acter scetch, by the author's life
long friend. Sir Andrew Mcpnaii.
who gathered the poems and com
pield them for publication along
with his essay. On page 29 I find
the following which must have
been written shortly prior to his
last illness.

The American woman nerer says:
"If winter coraes." She knows all toe
well that it Is coming, and goes out
and prepares herself accordingly.
For her the fertile minds of the
French designers hare been devising
ways and means for fastening the

fastening them securely against the
searching fingers of our winter
winds.
So In the sketch the superlatlTely
loose beaver cuffs are caught In at
the wrists. There is a huge cape col

and chin, as well as throat, and a
panel of fur all down the front of
the frock. A thoroughly practical de

EXERCISE FOR ADULTS
George J. Fisher, MJ).
The history of man is that be
has always been accustomed to
vigorous bodily exercise. Conse
quently his muscles are numerous
and large. About half the body
weight is made up by the muscles.
Thus they constitute a large part
of his being. Furthermore, in his
aeveiopment tae musctee come
first,- Heart, Jangs, Uver. ner
vous system, all came later. They
came as a result of muscle con
traction. When muscles were
used in a greater variety of ways
then there was need for richer
blood K more elaborate digestion,
and a nervous system to control
them. Half the brain in fact is
given over to the care of the
muscles. Thus we see that the
muscles are exceedingly Important
organs. They are related to all
the organs ot the 4ody. They are
most closely connected with the
nerves of the body and are very
directly related to the brain. Well-
toned, active muscles mean a good
heart, strong longs, good diges
tion, fine circulation, aerroua
control, and mental vigor. When
the muscles get flabby and lose
their tone the blood gets sluggish,
the lungs lacy, the nerves Jumpy,
and the brain dull. You cannot
neglect the muscles without feel-
lag the results at many import-points.
Now. unfortaaately. most of
our work today does not make
mufficient demand upon euf
eharactertoOe -of mid-life, t
shallow breathing. (, . ,
Some of ma. too are in. lines
of work which tend to contract
the chest, round the shoulders,
pull the head forward, or push
the lower part ot the abdomen '
downward and forward, and thus
tower the. tone of muscles and
the bedily organs which are so
cteeely related to them. In such
cases exercises should be ' taken
to counteract ' these . conditions.
AH exercises should be taken with
