ing.


An obvious remedy for the nervous
ness born of hurry. may be trite and
commonplace, but il is sensible not
withstanding. Haste inevitably makes
waste in human experience. Delightful
as is the last nap on the drowsy
pillow, difficult as it seems to waken
a little earlier, to get the bath and the
dressing and the little interval for

prelude 20 every ones day, a small sac
rifce, trifing degree of resolution,
will enable any person in normal
health to secure ali extra half-hour in
the morning. The extra time. so easily
secured, SO precious in the gifts it bears
in it's hand, will make you and me the
worldwide difference between dignity
and irritation, between composure and
fussiness, writes Margaret Sangster in
Harper's Bazaar.
A woman should face the situation,
whatever it be; discover, il there is
any flaw, what has caused it, and then
calmly and gently, as her province is,
see about setting it right. Half our
worries spring from some occult occa-
sion which we may overcome, and much
of our so-called nervousness, it is ac-
ltnowledged, is lorn in worry. Some of

located deep ii the fourtain of our be-

bensible to ous frieBds that they sur

Generations Of us. from Mother Eve
down, hare shrieked in every note of
the gamut at such Of our pet aversions
as have crossed our pathway, and the
woman Of the twentieth century has
in her brair' the wayworn tracks made
for her by her forebears. From know

and inconsiderate 20 seeing what naay
be done TO rectify IL Is often the step
which costs most and counts for most.
Every time when we remain silent,
though the desire TO speak beats in

time when. though ready 20 rush or
to fly or TO exclaim with vehemence,
we are simply quiet. holding ourselves
in with bit and rein. we make real
gain in self-restraint.
And self-restraint in women marks

WASTING STRENGTH.
How Women May Econoniize in
the Expenditure of Phys
icaI Force.

Women are apt to confine their idea
of waste 10 things tangible and ma
terial. The waste of emotion and
nervous force is mentioned, and atten-
ton is also called to "the foolish ex-
penditure of physical power on the
part OF the best housekeepers which
might easily be conserved. What is
the use of standing to perform tasks
which might be done quite as well sit
ting? Dressing ones hair, usually a
tiresome process. regulating bureau
drawers and boxes, mixing cake, even
washing dishes and ironing. can all
be done satisfactorily in a sitting
posture. Going up and down stairs
is far more fatiguing than necessary:
If only women would practice ascend
ing properly. that is. at a moderate
gait, with chest erect and the foot
planted squarely on each stir. BY a
little attention to these details women
can do much 10 lessen the daily waste
of tissue and prevent physical bank
ruptcy." Perhaps this a suggestion
worthy Of consideration. The worlds

president of the Archaeological Society of
Columbus, o., who, with a party of as
sistants, passed two weeks here in 1892
in making careful survey of the ruins
His time did not admit of examination
of the east or remaining sides of the
quadrangle The mounds of debris there
are of less hight and, unlike the sandstone
rock used in the walls of the three sides
Water-Worn boulders, taken from the river
bed, were put in place. The walls were
probably not more than two stories in
hight
The eight council chambers and places
where their mystic ceremonies were OBJ
served are faced with cut stone, and the
depressions are now about eight feet in
DEPTH although doubtless partially filled
above their former bottom.
The archaeological treasures that may be
found in the many sealed rooms is purely
a matter of conjecture. That many relics
will be recovered if they are opened may
be expected from the fact that in those
opened by the Boston party fourteen skel-
etons and mummies Were found in one
room. and from other rooms two wagon
loads of vases, jars, pitchers. bowls, and
other articles of domestic life were Sc
cured and removed.
a few hundred feet to the east of this
large ruin is another almost as large, as
is proved by the area covered by the de-
bris of fallen walls 1t bears evidence Of
still greater antiquity, and but isolated
portions of the stone walls appear above
the surface. The timbers where exposed
are greatly decayed and the general sur
face of the mounds is broken into numer-
Gus depressions where the once supporting
timbers have been crushed by the weight
of falling walls. From the size of the few
rooms that can be entered It Is inferred
that there were Seventyfive rooms in the
first story, but how many stories there
were originally in the building cannot now
be determined.
At a distance of about 400 feet from the
large ruin is situated an ancient reser-
voir covering about one acre, and now in
use. 1t was doubtless used as a storage
of water for domestic purposes by the oc-
cupants of the two large puebos, and by
those who lived in the many smaller
houses whose ruins now dot the surface
in all directions from the greater ruins.
1t was supplied by a ditch which received
its water from the river at point about
four miles above the reservoir and traces
of the ditch, which was about twenty feet
wide on the bottom, can yet be seen to a
distance of twenty-five miles below this
point.

NOT UNTIL CHRISTMAS DAY.
DELAY ENCOUNTERED IN WORK
on CEDAR RIVER SYSTEM.
City Engineer Thomsou Announces
That 0penfng Celebration WIN
Not Occur Thanksgiving Day ~
Expected-Much Work to BE Done

1t Is now probable that Cedar river
water will not be turned into the mains
of the city until some time in December.
1t was originally planned by City En-
gfneer Thomson to open the gate at the
intake at Cedar river ON Thanksgiving dry
and to celebrate with appropriate cers-
monies the Inauguration Of the magnifi-
cent new water supply system which
marks an epoch in the growth and devel-
orment of the city.
Several causes have operated to delay
the completion OF the new Cedar river
system" said Mr.. Thomson yesterday 1T
Is true that we. could turn tho water on
Thanksgiving day. but II would have to
be turned on again because of the UNI
completed work which could not be fin
ished with the reservoirs and mains full
Of water.
''The chief obstacle to the opening Of
the system is the failure to complete the
gate chambers and air valves at the res
ervoirs and other places In the system.
This work must be finished before the
water can be turned from Cedar river into
the supply mains OF the city.
ut is an unfortunate circumstance that
we will not be able to carry out our
plan of celebrating on Thanksgiving day
the completion of the new system which
means so much for Seattle. I am salts
fled. however, that everything will be In
shipshaps before Christmas and that dur
ing or before the holidays we may APP
propriately celebrate the completion Of
this great enterprise"
The contractors were delayed somewhat
by high water and landslides ten days ago
river. There is now no difficulty from
this source. however. The water has
dropped to a midsummer level and no
further trouble Is anticipated.
