had been away on a vacation. "We went
away because my wife thought that it
would do the baby good If we could find a
nice, cool place for the summer, far from
the heat and noise of the city. IL did the
baby world Of gOOd-at least SO my wife
says-and now have come back to the
city for my own health.
1--WE found just such place as we were
looking for, and I was actually enjoying
myself until some one proposed holding a
baby show. Did it ever occur to you how
easy it is to organize q baby showp All it
needs is babies-and you can find them
everyw here-and some idiot to propose the
scheme.
"Deep down in the heart of every wom-
an who has baby there is a deep rooted
conviction that her particular infant is
the sweetest bit of humanity in all the
wide, wide world and that it is only neo-
essary to hold that baby up to public view

took my breath away. reckoned up my
position as rapidly as possible. Seventy

PUTS BATHING IN CREED.
New York Pastor Explains Church
Order Founded on Cleanliness.

New York. Oct. 14-Here is a church So
ciety whose members are bound by the
rules to take a bath every day For the
benefit of those who believe that TOO TOO
much bathing is not to be encouraged the
rule reads: ITO take sponge bath or
cold water tub every day, unless prevented
The name of the organiza ton is not
1.-The Order of the Bath as certain per-
sons have begun to call it. 1t is known
officially as the Order of Silver Cross OF
Our Master and Cleanness. 1t was organ
lied by Rev. Mr.. NOR, assistant rector OF
the Church of the Holy Communion, at
Sixth avenue and Twentieth street
Mr. NIoir was surprised today that the
order should attract any special attention
It carried on its unobtrusive work, and
the results are highly satisfactory. He
did not claim any special originality for
the principles on which the society was
founded. Mr.. Moir is himself an advo-
cate of the cold tub, and he says that
after thirteen years, daily experience he
is able tc testify to its many advantages
The rules of the order regard the bath as
a necessity and nobody can be excused
from awaiting himself of it on the plea
that a less rigid construction of the rule
would fit his especial case, except in case
of Illness.

The weather man of the Rochester,
N. Y, Democrat submits the following:
The hemisphere of the sun bearing
the three disturbances, which caused a
period of warm weather during every
month of the past winter, is now turn
ing toward the earth. One of the dis
turbances appeared by rotation last
week 1t is apparent that their energy
is subsiding, and that no great weather
change can be expected from them.
Still the temperature is not likely to be
low during their presentation to the
earth. The first of the active disturb
ances in the suns southern hemisphere
will reappear by rotation about the 18th
or 18th of October, when another period
of warm weather is likely to begin.
About the oath of October the great dis
turbance, 100000 miles long, will re-
appear by rotation and the warm spell
of early October may be repeated, but
with slightly lower temperature.

CFrom the Atchison Globe.1
No girl likes to eat corn off the cob
before an admirer.
If a girl has them. she puts on her
furs the next day after she discards
shirt waists.
A great event in every woman's life
Is when she goes on a visit, and leaves
her baby for the first time.
We sometimes question if any wo-
band when she is doing her fall buying
at a dry goods store.
The women have nothing to talk
about, and are longing for some one to
give a reception that they may abuse
the refreshments.
There are different professions to
lead; one AtchisOn woman leads one
because she has already been invited
out to a Thanksgiving dinner.
When a husband is kind, and pleas
ant, and a good prOvider, people say OF
the world who could possibly get along
with him"
There is talk of organizing an IN

bers sleep in the same neighborhood, so
that they can hold a meeting when they
can't sleep nights.
A love story doesn't suit a girl of six
teen unless the lovers quarrel and part
forever, at least once a week. After
she grows older, she worries over the
fear that the man may not come back,
and is more in favor of peace.
