Bathing a Eabe In Russia.

The Russian peasants have a way of
bathing their babies. the principle of
which might well be adopted in our
own luxurious nurseries. a large, thick
log about four feet long is followed
out so as to form as deep a cavity as
possible. This is set up on crossbal
sticks al either end. which brings Ii
to about the height of a small tea table
and enables the nurse to battle the ba
by while standing up.
The followed space in the log is filled
with water. which is poured over a
flannel sheet which has been laid at
the bottom with the ends hanging over.
and a small aaInc! pillow is placed at
one end to support the head of the
child above the water. The infant is
then laid in the water as if in bed,
and greatly does the wee tot enjoy the
untrammeled kicking and splashing,
In taking him out the flannel sheet is
raised on either side and wrapped
about him and he is carried warm and
moist. to the fire to be rubbed dry with
hot towels.-Sacramento Record Union

might have been, but they were far
ahead of the slim support given them
The feature was a mile try at the Utah
motorcycle record on a dirt track by
John Chapman and liver Lawson, and
the record of two minutes was lowered
to 1:43. The race was run on the half
mile horse track, which was not in
altogether the best condition, and the
time made was considered to be very
good.
The first race on the card was
multicycle professional race for two
miles. Turville and Gum were the only
ones who considered it in the light
of a multicycle event, and they ap-
peared on the track with their tandem.
There was some preliminary discussion
as to which of the two would get first
money should the tandem win, and a
compromise was effected by deciding
to divide the money, although Turville
insisted that it ought to go to him,
since he was on the front end of the
machine. All of the other entries. Law
son, Chapman and Emery, appeared on
their regulation track wheels.
The race was not a particularly bril-
liant one though some fast riding was
done on the last lap. AS they came
down the stretch the tandem was in
the lead, with Chapman and Lawson

crossed the tape a wheel in front of
the tandem, with Chapman just a
breath behind. The time was SOB
The other race was q mile handicap,
professional, which Chapman won after
an exciting finish. The race for the
first three laps was SLOW even unto
snailness, but after the gong had
sounded the riders bumped their backs
and showed what they could really do.
Emery made a magnificent sprint in
the middle of the last lap and forged
ahead of them all. But as they round
ed the curve he lost his nerve and
Chapman and Lawson came forward
1t was neck and neck down the stretch
and Chapman finished about a foot in
front of the Swede Time, 2:21 2-5.
Turville finished third, Gum fourth,
and Emery, who made his sprint too
soon, came in last. The handicap men
were caught in the first lap by the
scratch men.
