Tho OIL Rub.

A sea salt bath. followed by an ''oll
rub" is an excellent daily habit for
delicate women who need vitalizing.
Sea salt may be bought in three or five
pound boxes at the druggists, and a half
cupful dissolved in boiling water and
added to a basin of luke-warm water is
enough for a sponge bath. The best
way to take 1t is to stand in the bath
tub, and. after sponging ones self from
head to foot, pour the remaining water
over the chest and shoulders. To be
entirely satisfactory the oil must be
applied by another person. Cocoanut oil
is cheapest and best for the purpose. and
1t should be rubbed into the skin till nc
trace remains on the surface. 1t Is most
beneficial to have the bath and the oil
rub just before going to bed, and in any
case the patient should rest in a re-
clining position for at least half an hour
after receiving the treatment.

THE wo0LLEN STOCKING. "

Edward iiarrigan's vitality Is evident
ly not In the least impaired, for in The
Woollcn Stocking he has produced an
other play that may be placed on the
list that contains those unique specimens
nous. The Woollcn Stocking gives us
nc new groupings Of the metropolitan
Kaleidoscope. but it shows us the old
ones in colors just as vivid. and in a
new frame. The stage IL filled with the
usual collection of good-tempered dark
les, aggressive sons of Erin. and queer
types Of New York's very cosmopolitan
population.
Mr.. Harrigan himself plays the part Of

and 1t travels about until the end of the
play. The audience knows hat when 1t
IL found the final curtain will fall, and
so there Is no anxiety about 1t. The first
two acts of 'The Woollcn Stocking are
excellent. but 1t rather goes to pieces in
the third act, which degencrates into or
binary farce-comedy, with men and
women rushing in from all sides. This
third act seetns to be necessary merely
to introduce the members of the cast in
Gus griminess. Mr.. HarriGan apparently
believes that the public signs for polite

A PUBLIC WRONG.

A speedway In New York has always
been urged on the ground that it will af-
ford the people an opportunity to watch
and enjoy the speeding Of the horses as
they are urged along q good and unob-
structed road.
When q raid was made on Central
Park for the horse-owners, 1t was ex-
cused On the ground that the proposed
speedway was by no means designed for
the qualification Of the drivers. but was
intended for the amusement and recre-
alton of the many thousands of spec
tators.
When the magnificent many million
scheme OF a speedway in the new dis
trict was being pushed forward In the
interest Of property-owners who had
secured options or made purchases. the
plea was not that the horsemen would
BIS accommodated. but that the people
would be gratifed.
When the Gilroy plan stepped In and.
with its powerful pull. upset all other
enterprises and became a success. again
the cry was raised for the dear people.
1t vas all to please them and to afford
the millions an opportunity to flock to
the driving ground on Sundays and hol.

flyers.
But now that the Gilroy speedway IL

A person has a perfect right to use . piano In

THIS subject has been aired in the newspapers

OF course, there is very much idle drumming by
those who are neither players nor students. but
as long as there are musicians students must
work long and hard. and tina. means hours at the
instrument. Why, sometimes when I have been
