45 feet It holds 1000 gallons of water and is three to six feet in depth, there being a gradual descent from one end to the other. The water is constantly changed, every precaution being taken to keep it fresh, filtered and warm, while the shower baths prevent the pos- sibility of taking cold.
 There is a tradition which has never been chased to its primitive lair that New York city is given over to men folks after in the afternoon. The Turkish baths are closed at that time to the feminine sex, and so I was not surprised when I was assured that when I took a swim I would have to come before the third hour after noon. day.
 A friend of mine, stopping few days in Lucerne, was attracted by the in- describably beautiful hue of the lake, for which there is no appropriate word in the language, it being neither tur- quoise, cerulean, azure nor silvery, but a combination of all. To see and admire was not enough. She must feel it. As Lafcadio Hearn says, she longed to abandon herself to the long, quivering, electrical caresses of the sea-
 She went into the natatorium, secured the nondescript garment called a bath ing suit, which could safely be worship ed, as it resembles nothing in the heav- ems above, in the earth beneath or inthe waters under the earth, and inquired the way into the lake.
 The bathing mistress stolfdly planted herself before the entrance with this rock shall fly from it's firm base" air
 Madame cannot go into the lake," she said. as if the lake privileges were in her guardianship.
 My friend expostulated to no pur- pose.
 The argument finally reached the question. Why not?"
 Madame, there are men bathing there"
 That ended it. Against that face and figure. backed by cons of Swiss virtue. my friend felt persuasion would be of no avail. She retired into the natato- rum and, shut in from sea and sky. swan like an imprisoned goldfish in glass globe.
 The question of men and women swimming in company has never reach ed the dignity of anything more than an occasional sporadic argument in the pumpkin colored journals. It certainly has not in Dr. Bode's establishment. where after in the evening one can swim alone or with masculine escort.
 I asked concerning the desirability of the breast or side stroke, that much argued question:
 "J am an advocate of the simple breast stroke" the attendant assured me. More can be accomplished, I be- lieve. with that in the way of endur- ance and speed.'
 I believe Captain Webb, who made the longest swim on record across the English channel, used the breast stroke almost entirely.

slaught against those masculine hearts which, like the summer hotels, have al- ways room for one more. Riding, golf and bicycling have all their devotees. Argument as to their respective methods would end, like most arguments, at the beginning of the cir cle.
 But for an exercise that unites the clements of pleasure and profit in un-
 mistakable and large quantities, to say nothing of the element of danger which is the sauce piquante to athletic ex- ercise, there is nothing like swimming. Every swimmer will admit this Non- swimmers are debarred from lack of information, which renders their opin- ions unavailing.
 So the yeas have it.
 Among the fashionable establish ments which make speciality of gild-
 ing refined gold and rendering more ir- resistible the siren of society as well as her sister less favored by opportu- , nifty, if not by grace, is the swimming

A Charming Fancy.

A charming and extravagant folly is to mount yellow lace over pure white mousseline de soie. The effect is softer than when the lace is mounted over satin Another idea is to veil white foundation under black lace, with fine net to give 1t a softer effect. For example, a chic frock of black net is draped with another net skirt between it and the white satin foundation
 About the bottom of the skirt are sev- eral tiny ruffies of black lace. and in- serted in each seam are broad bands Of lace insertion that permit the white to gleam through. The bodice has the in- sertion let into the net horizontally, and little lace frills head each band.
 4 dainty demitoilet just imported Is of black lace mounted over white satin. the lace on the skirt being arranged in three fiounces, each edged with tiny ruffie of heavy yellow lace. The sleeves are of the white and ruffled on the out side of the arm by line of yellow in- sertion. The bodice is a blouse of white accordion plaited mousseline de sole, with a jacket of the yellow lace over 1t. A scarf of the mousseline de soie Is elaborately trimmed with the yellow lace and forms a sash.

If I am in a bit of trouble where l need the sympathy of a woman, I go to my mother, and if I need help in anything I ask one of these two"
 You may think that these women were horrid, abominable and altogether unlikable They were not. They were agreeable women, considerate women and delightful women, and yet each confessed that the greatest hurts she had ever endured had come from wo- men, as well as the greatest rudenesses and the greatest misunderstanding Being wise, they did not become dis agreeable women. They simply when they met a woman took care to be- ware of her.

 He mentioned the names of Miss de Forest, Miss Dorothy White. Miss Louise Carpenter and Mrs. Bainbrldge Smith, with others. While we were talking he pointed out the younger son of George Gould, fine, healthy young ster, who swims like a fish. apparently inheriting his fathers love of aquatic sport

A Wide Awake Woman

Mrs. Mary A. Corkery, who has been chosen president of the newly organ ized Irish Woman's club of Chicago, is splendid representative of the wide awake woman of the day. Not only is she a we'll known clubwoman, having been presiding officer of the National Catho- lie Woman's league, but she is clever as woman of business. She is widely known in the workaday world as the president of the Chicago and Indiana Coal company, an immense concern that handles large contracts in Chica- go. Like many woman of practical turn of mind who has become widowed, Mrs. Corkery assumed her husbands business affairs at the time of his death four years ago and has since superin- tended it with success. Almost every day she spends a part of her time at the big offices on South Canal street. where she has not only held her own commercially, but with clear headed management has greatly increased the business. Between times of assuming this unusual role Mrs. Corkery finds diversion in the philanthropies of club life and the pink teas of society. She is a good looking woman of dignified bearing.
 Inspired by the recent visit of the young Irish girl. Maud Come, Mrs. Corkery is anxious in this new organi- zation to build up the interests of the women of Irish birth and descent who reside in Chicago. One of the special plans in prospect is the commemoration of 1798, the year of Ireland's strife. The literature of that land will be regularly studied. and whatever pertains to the betterment of that people, particularly the working women, will be undertaken by these fair patriots of Ireland.

been that woman has been put on a pedestal and her virtues extolled until man seemed a miserable specimen be- side her. Now, it is about time that she was knocked off this pedestal and alittle good sense beaten into her head. When want to do any worshipng, I am go- ing to worship a man. He is bigger, stronger, naturally better looking, has a greater respect for truth and decid- edly more charity for ones weaknesses. If I cannot get man to worship, I be- lieve I will give my affection to dog. but certainly not to woman. Oh, you think I am irritated about something! Oh, no, am not, for I know there are good women! Thank God, there are millions of them, but they are not the women who go in for ecstatic friend ships. They are the ones whose friend ship has grown up with you. The friendship that springs up like a weed in the night deserves to be jerked up and thrown away the next morning, | but very young girl ought to be told of the women she should dread. Some body should say to her: Beware of the woman, my dear girl, who tells you all about herself when you first meet her. Beware of the woman who announces to you that she has never said dis agreeable word about another woman. Gracious goodness! The air will be green when she does begin. The woman who never says disagreeable word is like the dog who never barks. He bites, and bites to kill. Beware of the woman who is very rich in her caresses to you. By all the laws of nature a woman ought to kiss a man, and she is wasting the time of two women when she fools about this sort of thing"

How She Formed a Habit

Judging by story told of Mrs. Inger- soil. wife of the famous agnostic, it Is no more difficult for man to be an or dinary hero to his valet than it is for a husband to be an oratorical hero to his wife. Mrs. Ingersoll was recently spending an evening with a friend. About 8 o'clock, after smothering sev- eral yawns, she apologized to her friend as follows: You really must excuse me; but, you know, dear. that I have accompanied the colonel on a recent lecture tour and have in consequence got into the habit of falling asleep at about o'clock every evening""

sermons are often meant to be kindly little ones." Perhaps you think when I preach it Is like fool jumping up and shaking his cap so that the bells ring and the jangle draws the crowd. But sometimes the fools sermon is a good one. And the sermon which is deduced from the talk of three women about other women has ended with the old text, for in this case the text comes after the sermon, Honor thy father and thy mother" though what the preacher wants to emphasize is, Honor thy mother' She suffered for you, she loves you. and she knows you, her wo- man child. as nobody else in the world does. There are a good many things that deserve to receive honor that don't get 1t.
 If you give honor and politeness to your children, they will give you honor and respect in return.
 If you are polite to the traveller on sea or land you will get respect and con- sideration in return.
 If you are polite and considerate to those you employ, you will get honor and respect in return.
 If you honor and respect the laws of a corporation or state, you have right to proper treatment. Perhaps you will get it.
 If you honor and respect every man, woman, child and dog that you meet in your daily walks. if you give them the courtesy due them, you can be very certain that respect will be shown you. The dog you kick is going to bite. The woman to whom you are rude is going to snub you. The child you don't con- slider worth politeness is going to be impertinent. Where you give honor and
