BALTIMORE ladies who are anxious to
vote may take encouragement from re-
suits Of women in politics in Kansas.
Beside the lady politicians making things
go as merry as marriage bell. one
woman declares politics is also good for
rheumatism.
News comes from Kansas that the lit
lie city of Beatlie. which last spring
elected municipal government COM
posed of women, is enjoying unusual
prosperity. Streets are kept clean. side
walks are repaired. wholesome laws
affecting public morals and good order
are enforced. and municipal affairs gen.
orally are administered with an economy
hitherto unknown. All this might have
been expected. But here is the mex
plainable thing: One of the council wo-
men gives it as her testimony that poll
tics is the best cure for rheumatism. She
declares that she suffered terribly from
this complaint before she entered the
municipal arena and that she is now
perfectly well. This is an unlocked for
benefit resultant from the activity of wo-
men in politics.

SOME people talk about women not
having recognition these days. Why,
she's getting lots of it constantly and in
new directions too. Here, for instance
is Lady Sarah Wilson. sister of the late
Duke of Marlborough, who went out to
South Africa just as newspaper woman.
war correspondent for the London Daily
Mai, and is now recognized as bellig-
erent by the Beers. She was taken pris-
oner while taking notes. and Gen. Joubert
sent word to the British military author
tiles that he would exchange the noble
reporter for Boer woman held as pris-
Toner by the British at Mateking, pre-
sumably any Boer woman, since no name
was given. But Joubert wasn't as smart
as he might have been, after all and failed
to recognize his opportunity.
Considering the high rank of Lady
Sarah and the fact that she is war cor
respondent, and very bright one,
he could no doubt have successfully
demanded half a dozen or more
ordinary Boer women in exchange
for her. This is the FIRST time, we be-
lieve. that women have been considered
as prisoners of war. subject to exchange.
woman for woman, or in any other way.
Women acting as spies have. it is true,
been taken prisoners. but spies are not
exchangeable. General Jcubert's recog-
milton of women should not escape the
attention of women's rights associations.

ming Is necessary; one may enter the
lake without the slightest fear; all
you have to do is to lie down and
float. But to swim in it, that Is an
other thing! When your hands are
put under the water to take stroke,
your feet, like Banquo's ghost, will not
go down. 1t is impossible to keep
more than one end of your body under
water at time. You cannot swim,
but If you are man you can float on
your back, with your arms crossed
under your head, and smoke your Pipe
yo1r own room. The water is so salt
that it cannot be swallowed without
great danger of strangulation; small
drop in the eye, too, gives much pain.
But, in spite of all the dangers, bath
ing in the Great Salt lake is refreshing
and invigorating, notwithstanding that
the body must be rebathed in fresh
water afterward to remove the i'm
mense quantity of salt which adhereS
to the skin. 1t is hard work to make
any headway, venagainst the smallest
waves. Nearly half million people
bathe in the Great Salt lake every
year; they come from all over the
world, and tourists are beginning to
realize that Salt Lake City and the
magnificent surroundings present the
greatest scope Of novelty, and is des-
tined to be leading watering place.

ished when the temple was built.
These bas-reliefs are executed in a
high style of art, and are altogether
over two miles in length. On the
outside of the terraces at regular in
tervals are sitting images Of Buddha,
which certainly number not less than
400 and possibly double that. These
figures are somewhat over life-size,
being three feet in height as they sit.
The height of the building is about 100
feet, exclusive of the dome, which is
in a partially ruinous condition, and
of which about twenty feet still stand.
The temple is not one solid mass OF
masonry, but is built around the con-
