But as for deliberately setting out to develop the nffck, arms, shoulders, chest or any, part of the body, our grandmoth ers would have ppened their big eyes wide at sxfch nonsense, though tlfeyi srere: un consciously practicing a system of beauty culture, which, was in many .ways quite equal to the modern method.

FRENCH VIEW .OF ROOSEVELT "An Athlete, a Warr4or and a Statesman," "Brave, Honest, Far-Seeing and Modest."

I said,"here are four cardinal qualities placed in a succession which pleases me: But is there nothing more?" "Nothing more? Well, he has captured the imaginations and fired the hearts of the people because that he, a man of the better class, of Butch ancestry and from an old N ew -York family, rich and cul tured, married and the father of six chil dren, a, high executive official in the navy department, did not hesitate in the last war to give up all in order to go to the front with'his 'Rough Riders' and risk his life without being obliged to do it.

"I wonder why it is that young men in this country, in learning a trade, do not follow the fashion of the apprentices of France and Germany?" said a young man -who liad just returned from Europe, where he had spent $2,000 or $3,000 of his father's money in seeing the sights.
