No part ot the body responds to an effort to Improve like the lung tissue. Therebundant size of the limps, sedentary life, ignorance of breathing, and the liability of disused tissues to attack, makes tuberculosis a constantly increasing menace to the race. The time to begin fighting- it is in early life. Chil dren should be taught to fully inflate, stretch, and "wash out' their lungs. It is a much more Important factor In inherent cleanliness and bodily vitality than requiring them to wash their faces and comb their hair. Outdoor life and wholesome diet are now generally recog nized as remedial agents for lung consumption. But mucn more emphasis should be laid on the habit of breathing, as a pan 01 ine cure, n me patient refuses to eat there is great alarm, but it is taken for granted that if surrounded by good air he will get all that Is necessary. If the great portion ot effort were directed to teaching patients to breath and strengthen the lung tissue, there would be greater percentage of re covery. Mrs. Bishop says any one whose life Is shadowed bv a belief that a narrow chest, weak lungs, tuberculosis, bronchitis or any of their kin "runs in his fam ily" can demonstrate that he is exempt from these family tendencies. The way to rid oneself of such benumbing apprehensions and the possibility of their ful fillment is to keep one's system well nourished by food and well renovated bv ex ercise, and to develop a broad chest and lungs of large capacity and fine resist ent power. "The secret of health is in the power of the cells of our bodies to repel germs whenever our bodies are weak; then is the time to look out for infection, or the development of tubercular or germs," says Bain-bridge in Life's Day.

The Art club met this week with Miss Helen Hogeboom. Madame Lunde Souther and Miss Hogeboom are occupying Mrs. Souther's bunga low, which has recently been com pleted. The lines of the square crowned narrow brimmed litfle hats which fit closely around the face seem special ly adapted to youthful, wearers, al though they border so closely on the turban shape. The one in question today would be charming on a girl of seventeen or eighteen in a color matching her suit. The crown is square, the bent brim narrow and slightly rolling and the frame is cov- ered with dark blue velvet. Around the crown is an upstanding band of silk embroidery in self-tone. On the left side are three upstanding wings of two shades of blue. The Matinee Music club entertained the women of the Ladies' Music club and the Music Study club Thursday afternoon at their meeting. Dean Horace Whitehouse gave a lecture on Puccini's opera, "La Boheme," which remains the most popular of that com poser's works. He analyzed the drama act by act, giving the story and playing from the score. The Bo hemians the word here used to indi cate certain reckless, care-free tem peramental people were three stu dents living in a garret room, shari ir.g their money-, their happiness and their misery. They btirn their manu script and - their paintings for warmth, and when one succeeds in selling some of his work, he comes home with a load of provisions, and the three enjoy "yesterday's dinner." One .of the three, Rodolfo, tarries at home while his friends make merry at a nearby inn. Durinjr their ab sence, Mimi, a flower girl who lives on the same floor, comes to his room for a light for her candle. Having procured her light, she finds she has lost her key. While they search hey exchanjre confidences and before they know it are madly in love with one another. The second act is in the Latin quarter of the city, and Mimi and the three friends are dining at tne care. The act introduces Musette. a flirt, who tricks her rich lover into leaving her by sending him on an errand, so that she can be with her former lover, Marcell. one of the three chums. The third act is taken up with the quarrels of Mimi and Ro nolfo and Marcel and Musette, and in the fourth act the s.-ene is back in the students' room. Musette enters bringing Mimi, who is dying with con sumption, and whose last wish is to see her lover. The play ends with her death. Dean Whitehouse played the themea for all the characters and sang some of the best known sonjrs from the score. Mr. Roehr lent some Victrola records from Farrar, Melba. Caruso and Scotti for the use .of the club. The meeting was held at the homo of Miss Mary MacLennan. The announcement of the marriage of Miss Mary Ethel Scott to Arthur L. Beard, formerly of this city, came more or less as a surprise to their many friends of Topeka. However. the most interesting part of their ro mance, is the ract they were married October 19, 1911, keeping it secret nearly six months. The marriage, taking place in one of the churches at Concordia, Kan., was known to only a few intimate friends. Both Miss Scott and Mr. Beard are well known in Topeka, having lived the greater part of ther lives in this city. Miss Scott is a daughter of M. and Mrs. Charles Douglas Scott, 1601 "Western avenue. Mr. C. D. Scott, the father of the bride, is a traveling salesman for a tea and coffee firm of St. Louis, with headquarters in To peka, Mr. Beard was formerly associated in business with his fath er In the L. Beard & Son Co., dry goods and notions, which business. however, was discontinued a short time before the death of Mr. L. Beard, father of Mr. Arthur Beard. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur L. Beard ex pect to remain permanently in Con cordia, Kan., where Mr. Beard has a thriving and prosperous business, in a vaudeville and motion picture theater. Mrs. George Mitchell entertained informally this afternoon for her friend. Miss Gail Hetherington of Atchison.

She is planning making a trip to Europe in May and may become a permanent resident of France. day afternoon and a bridge party today at the home of Mrs. Davis on Fillmore street. Palms and spring flowers were used in the decorations. A little five-year-old boy who Is in structed at every meal to chew his food well, thought the lesson a good enough one to pass along. Accordingly the next time his baby sister was fed. he shook a warning finger at her and admonished her: "Baby, you must Fletcherize." Whereupon the baby. with a grand disregard for the rules of health, blinked at her big brother and bolted her nourishment just as all babies did before Fletcher became a mouth-digestion fan. The evening gown here reproduced is a credit to the artistic sense of its designer and bears the hall mark of French production. Apricot satin was used for the body of the gown, which consisted of bodice, tunic and skirt- The sleeves were merely draped chif fon held at the center of the front and back under square passementerie motifs of gilt.

The nurses of Topeka held a meeting Thursday evening, March 7, at Christ Hospital and organized the association of Graduate Nurses of the City of To peka, with a membership of 40. After the meeting they had a line party to the concert at the Auditorium. It is a well-known fact that a local talent concert never draws much of a crowd if there is-any charge for it. But now that the pipe organ is saved, it is being observed by those who attended the concert last night that the local performer got the applause. If a To peka girl who gave a debut recital at the Grand last winter had been the soloist chosen for the "evening of song.' more than likely there would have been an audience of some 27 peo ple, and the janitor, but they would have heard a voice as good as those that our concert goers pay twice the price to hear, when the singer belongs to some other town or state.
