The Ideal Way to Live.

The ideal way in which to live, If
one could afford it, would be to
have a home in the country for
four or five months in the year,
and to spend the rest of the time
in the city, writes Florence Morse
in very attractive article which
discusses the advantages and dis
advantages Of Suburban Life
for Women" in the August Ladies
Home journal. The country in
summer is a thousand times more
enjoyable to the woman who has
passed the winter and spring in
town than to her who has been
waiting many long, dull months
for a glimpse of the first bluebird.
The change of scene and Of air
twice year is a splendid tonic,
and one is enabled to enjoy both
town and country when they are
at their best.

leisurely about finding things to

Saw some very stylish hats in a
window the other day. They were
marked so low that / thought I'd
buy one. Went in. They didn't
have my size-very common size,
too. Told 'em / guessed I'd take
one for my brother. The didn't
have his size-anOther common
size. or course they said they
could fit me out in little better
grade. I've had that played on me
before, / growled and went out.
They've lost my trade forever. |
don't believe in 'em, and l won't
buy of a man whom l suspect.
Went into restaurant for lunch.
Saw watermelon on the bill. Or
dered some. All gone. Disappoint-
ed. Saw cantalOupe on the bill.
Ordered some. All gone. Every
thing else seemed to be gone so |
went. Never'n go there again.
Hate to have my mouth all made
up for something and not be able
to get it. Why didn't they scratch
it off the bill?
Saw sign in window: "These
ties, Is cents" Looked like 80 cent
ties. Wonderful how they could
sell 'em so cheap. Went in, took
one, and then learned that they
was As cents. The down stroke of
the was made very heavy and
the rest was so light you couldn't
see it from the street. They tried
to look very innocent, but / told
'em guessed they were plain, or
binary swindlers. That made 'em
very angery, but they didn't do
anything about it.
Heard of a merchant last week
who had rejected a batch Of ads
prepared for him by one of the
best ad writer's in this country.
Merchant said they were very good
and told the whole story, but were
not long enough-wouldn't fill his
space in the newspaper. He said
he would take 'em if ad writer
would pad 'em out. AID writer
wouldn't do it. Bully for the ad
writer! A man who buys ads by
the yard doesn't need very good
ones.
Know a salesman in a New York
hat store. He has a great big head.
Wears bigger than an hat, l guess.
Proud of his head too. Seems to
think that the bigger the head the
more brains. 1t is his special delight
to put everybody's hat on his head
and make everybody see how supe-
rior he is. His employer ought to
get some brains at slaughter
house and inject 'em into that
salesman's big head. 1t seems to
be a trick of abnormally big-head-
ed men to go up and down the
earth trying on other peoples hats
just to make the other people feel
small.
Dentist played a mean trick on
me while ago. Got me into his
chair by telling me that he had
extracted sixteen teeth from a
mans mouth that morning and
the man never whimpered.
"Give him gas?" l asked.
"No," said he; "didn't give him
anything"
] was ashamed to be afraid Of
having one little tooth pulled after
that; so | sat down and he yanked
and twisted and nearly pulled my
head off. Hurt me like all git
out.
Then he told me the other mans
sixteen were false teeth.

Indians do wash. That is some Of
them do. 1t is a curious fact that the
Columbia river Indians believe as
thoroughly in the efficacy of the hot
air bath and the sudden immersion of
the body afterward in cold water as
the Turks or the most advanced believ-
ers in the Russian and Turkish baths
do. To the man who knows only the
m-smelling, ill-conditioned Digger,
Apache or Piute this will come as a
revelation.
The Columbia river Indian, says the
Chicago Tribune, is a clean individual.
He may not have the toilet articles and
clean linen of civilization. but his pores
are open, his skin is clear and free from
spot or blemish, and he is generally a
healthy person. His step is light, his
head erect, his eye clear, and form
wiry, and he probably owes it as much
to his hot baths as to the delightful
climate in which he lives. These baths
the Umatilla, the Wenatchee, Yakima
and all the other tribes of the Column
bia basin have used always, or so far
back in the past that not even the faint
est traditions of the tribes tell of their
commencement. They take them reg
ularly, once or twice weekly, and al
ways prescribe and use them for sick
ness, although their ignorance of the
various diseases, and their practice of
always taking the bath" as a cure for
any disease with which they may be
attacked has caused many serious and
fatal mistakes in the past by which
scores of lives have been lost. Repeat
ed fatalities, however, teach them no
lessons. 1t may be rheumatism or it
may be smallpox; it makes no differ
ence to them.
The bath" or, as the few white set
tiers on the river call it, '%Injun sweat
house." is simply a hole three feet in
diameter and eight feet long, dug hori-
zontally in the sloping bank of the
river. 1t is usual to dig them from
thirty-fve to forty feet above low
water, as the river generally rises dur
ing June and July from thirty to forty
feet, and although high water lasts but
ten days to three weeks, yet there would
" VI ANib vi IliS bdlll IL lllC llbtl
had a chance at it. The bottom, or
floor, is lined with smooth fat stones,
and the walls are hardened as much as
possible by the builder lying on his
back on the bottom and pounding them
with a rock resembling a pestle. After
a few baths the walls become as we'll
baked and as hard as brick, and will
not only retain the heat for hours, but
will stand a wonderful amount of pres
III and weight from above.
The method of taking a bath is as
simple as the bath itself. Filling the
hole with dry wood it is set afire and
in a few minutes is burning fercely.
When the wood has burned out the en-
bers are raked from the hole and the
bath is ready. Divesting himself of all
his clothing the Indian takes an old
blanket and, saturating it thoroughly
in the river, spreads it out on the stones
of the hole and crawIs in feet first.
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1894-08-04

Inc instant the wet blanket touches
the hot stone the hole is filed with
steam in which the bather disappears.
For several minutes nothing is visible
but clouds of steam pouring out of the
hole; but after a time that clears away,
and within, yet close TO the entrance,
can be seen the steaming face of the
baths occupant. AS the hole coolS
off the Indian crawls farther in, and so.
the majority of the bucks" remain in
all night. Before morning they are
well back to the extreme end of the ex-
cavatiOn.
To witness a buck" emerge from
his bath in the morning one would
think it the last effort Of a dying man.
Zoo weak to walk or even stand and
hardly able to crawl. he to
slowly drag his body from the hole to
the bank, down which he creeps or
rolls to the waters edge. Then the
transformation takes place. If he is
able to stand he will wade in until the
water is up to his knees, when in he
rolls or plunges. In an instant he is
up again, wildly waving his arms and.
beating his chest, and then he plunges
in again, repeatedly, until he has dis
appeared several times under the icy
water, for the Columbia river is ice
cold, winter or summer, receiving its
supply in the summer from the snow
clad peaks of its headwaters.
With a bound the buck is out on
the bank, a new man; like a wildcat he
springs up the hillside to the bath"
reaches in and picking up his blanket
wraps ii around him and with step as
light and form as erect as an athlete in
training, hurries away to his tepee for
breakfast.
The taking of his bath is part of his
training. and almost of his religion.
From early youth he is accustomed to
it, and he practices it to his old age.
Winter or summer, whether it be hot
or cold, he takes it. While the squaws
do not indulge as frequently or remain
in as long as the bucks" they are re-
quired by the customs of their people
TO regularly go to the bathhouse and
receive its benefits. They usually do.
not remain in longer Than half an hour,
or, perhaps, an hour at the longest,
and are not required to take the
plunge afterward, usually ~contenting'
themselves with dipping their blankets,
in the water and then passing it over
their bodies until they become sufi-
GENTLY cool to walk up to the tepee to
sleep or eat.
