The carriage of the body may deter mine the condition of one's health. Bad poise is often responsible for the failure of the vital organs to perform their functions properly. It causes ref use material to be deposited In the tis sues and is responsible for a large per centage of headaches. Because of the unnatural strain on muscles and ligaments, more nervous and muscular energy are expended in holding a poor position than In main taining a correct bodily posture. Good poise gives the blood a chance to carry new food material where needed and to eliminate waste. It al lows the nerves to carry their mes sages and for the lungs to fill the tis sues with life giving oxygen. A certain readiness for action saves lost motion. The common faults of posture are drooping shoulders, protruding bead, hollow chest, round shoulders, hollow back, bent knees and weak or fiat feet. Many persons have almost all of these defects. It is claimed that more than 50 per cent of all cases of spinal trouble are due to faulty positions which have be come habitual. Dally exercise, well regulated, will not only prevent but will correct many faulty postures. Dancing is one of the most whole some and most effective ways of culti vating good carriage. It calla into play muscles in all parts of the body and tends to produce gracefulness. Of great value for similar reasons are many of tbe outdoor sports such as swimming, skating, tramping, rowing and horseback riding. — Pittsburgh Press. GIVING LIFE FOR PEACE. Hew s Deadly Feud Between Alaskan Tribes Was Ended. Ending a war Is always attended with difficulties and perplexities. It is Interesting to recall tbe manner in which twe Alaskan tribes, the Stickeen and the Sitkas, once settled such a matter. The late John Muir narrated the facts. The bloody feud had lasted all summer, for the parties were evenly matched, and they were all likely to starve in tbe winter because the wo men dared not go out to fish or pick berries. But one day a Stickeen chief appeared between the camps and called for a parley. He said: “My people are hungry. They dare not go to the salmon streams or berry fields for winter supplies, and if this war goes on much longer most of my people will die of hunger. We have fought long enough; let us bave peace. You brave Sitka warriors go home, and we will go home, and we will all set out to dry salmon and berries before it Is too late." The Sitka chief replied: "You may well say let us stop fight ing when you hare had tbe best of It. You have killed ten more of my tribe than we have killed of yours. Give us the Stickeen men to balance our blood account; then and not till then will we make peace and go home." “Very well," replied tbe Stickeen chief; “you know my rank. You know that I am worth ten common men and more. Take me and make peace." Tbe offer was accepted. Tbe chief gave himself up and was shot down In his tracks in sight of both tribes. One man died for many, and peace was re stored.—Christian Advocate. Reassuring.

Farm folks are doing the big work at home these days. Farm women, by economizing and meeting present conditions, are real soldiers. The Country Gentle man’s home-canning de partment is like the rest of the paper. It is made up of ideas gathered from the most practical, experi enced farmers—both men and women — in the country. — That’s why The Country Gentleman is the national farm weekly—not re stricted to a small locality. I’m enthusiastic about it I know what it will mean to you. I know that the one dollar you invest in a year’s subscription- 52 issues, one every week —will bring returns and pleasure you never dreamed of.
