CHApERoNS OF THE DAY.
They Have Manifold Duties and Arc
Required to Enrn Their
Salaries.

The woman who chaperons the girl
tof fashion of the present day has no
inecure and earns every dollar she re-
teeives, says the Washington Star In
tthe good old days when the summer
lGirl was merely an artists model,
Whose chief mission In life was to pose
lon the beach under an umbrella built
for two and show a clean pair of heels
in the casino ballroom, any dear old
,drowsy grandmammn or near-sighted
,,suntie who tatted and watched for
l-rking drafts served admirably as
Iehaperon. She smuggled into corners,
never spoke unless spoken to and yet
she kept her charges in good order
and was an honor to her profession.
But now the chaperon must know how
ito make tea, to play golf, to be friend
,1y to dogs, understand horse talk,
keep level head, pink cheeks and
good appetite, no matter how big and
green the waves look. She must be
perfectly willing to walk miles on golf
links, whisk uncomplainingly to the
fbox seat of n coach, eat welsh rabbit
at midnight without protest, keep
!the extra young men of her protege
amused while a particularly favored
sadmirer is being put through his fir
!tation PAGES and pedal the automatic
piano playing machine when neces-
0ary.
OF course, it stands to reason that
iehapcron who fills TO perfection all
these requirements is something of
care bird, yet she remains the sum
.mcr girls ideal, while as a matter of
fact chaperonage in this present year
of grace threatens to be practiced by
specialists only. There is, Ior instance,
fhe golf matron, who knows how to
sit on a shady clubhouse balcony,
brew tea and mind n dog and young
man at the same time that she effectu-
tally keeps her eye on ner charge by
means OF powerful field glass. Then
there is the yachting duenna and the
coaching and automobile chaperon,
every one quite perfect in her own
way, ard at a seaside resort these
seasons one chaperon added to her
[Ianrels and possibly to the onerous
ifaties of her sister professionals by
Plunging in and rescuing from the

hard WORK DONE BY WOMEN,
The Immense Amount of Energy Ex-
! pended In Holding Up Trail
ing skirts.

/ I'm one afternoons shopping the
women of Chicago expend sufficient
energy to propel the combined navies
of the world"
! The Girl in the Mortar Board said
this and then looked about her for the
effect, says the Inter Ocean.
. "0h, OH" groaned the two organdie
girls, falling Imply against each other.
But the Girl in the Ladysmith Hat
said, seornfully: ITS that Mortar
Board. She can't help doing sums
when she's got 1t on"
"They do It," continued the girl with
the hsadpiece, ignoring interruptions
and beginning to figure, "by means of
the trailing dress skirt. In Chicago
there are, according to the last esti-
mate, 2,ooo, 900 people. or 100000 fami-
lies. On the basis Of adult females
to each family there are 500, 900 wom-
en-, most of whom are addicted to the
long-skirt habitat least. 100000 of
them. The average length of time con-
sumed by woman in a days shop
ping is about hours. Her dress skirt
must be held up continuously while in
the street and stores. The weight of
an ordinary street skirt as held by the
hand Is from 2 70 pounds, but TAX
ing the minimum weight of 2 pounds
which each woman carries in her hand
continuously during the five hours, she
expends lifting force of 2 pounds
every instant, 100 pounds a minute.
1900 pounds an hour, and SO, 900 pounds
during the hours. The 4OO, 600 long
skirted women of Chicago would, on
the same basis, exert lifting power
of 14,400, 100000 pounds during the
days shopping tour, which is equal to
1000, ,9o9-horse power. The average
indicated horse power of a frst-class
battleship in the United States navy is
$4,000. At this rate the power or en-
ergy expended by the women of Chi
cago in single day in carrying their
dress trains would propel 1000 battle
ships"
And the Girl in the Mortar Board
looked up triumphantly from her fig
ures. The others looked interested and
the Mortar Board Girl began at her
figures again.
ut takes only 1,022-horse power"
she went on. ito move train of 60
loaded freight cars 25 miles an hour
With the equivalent of 1880, ,900-horse
power expended by the women they
could move 1867 such trains. Applied
TO the ordinary tasks of a household,
such as sweeping. washing dishes, at
tending babies, ETC., this enormous
force now wasted would solve the
household problem in jiffy and leave
muscle to spare. 1t would sweep l.
8O0,OOo,0o0 rooms, allowing 20 pounds
of energy to room. 1t would wash
$4,000 100000 dishes, giving pound to
each dish. And it would carry 2,40O,-
100000 babies, each weighing is
pounds.
"By investigating, it appears that
the vast majority of women feel them
selves unable to attend to their sim
pie household affairs because they are
not strong enough. In the matter of
dress skirts they are feminine Hercu-
leses."
Then the Mortar Board Girl threw
down her pencil.
"Dear me, didn't know we were
working at ii so hard. Well never wear
the horrid things again." declared the
organdie Girl.
"Never mind. They are going out
this season, anyhow" murmured the
Ladysmith Girl.

step-father, who has been guarding
Russian Franks premises, which are
in the vicinity of what was a plague
center, but 1t is just as likely that some
rat spread the disease. This brings us
again to the question of the extermina-
ton of rats. which has been again and
again urged in these columns, and in
those of contemporaries.
Upon the details of the campaign
against rats there are some divergences
of opinion, but upon ,the necessity Of
such a campaign there is unanimity
Quite probably the various opinions ex-
pressed upon methods of getting rid
of rats might all be used effectively.
The suggestion that there should be
some one to take charge of the matter
comes from the observation of the fact
that what is everybody's business is
nobody's business, and that to really
exterminate or nearly exterminate the
rats requires united and we'll directed
effort. The bounty system is also a
good one, and once the rats are cleared
out it will most effectually serve
to keep down any sporadic" cases of
rodents, which may have escaped the
first holocaust. However IT is done
the rats should be warred against.

EXECUTIVE WORK.

The President of the Board of Health
will be relieved from his detail work by
DR., Garvin, and will thus continue 10
be able to guide the policy of the Board
while being freed from much of the
drudgery which has hitherto fallen to
his share. DIR. Garvin showed marked
ability while he was in full charge on
the Island of Maui, and there is every
reason to believe that he will make an
efficient executive officer of the Board.
The intention of the Board to have
proper health data is another thing
which the public will regard with ap-
proval. There is nothing more impor-
tant to a country than proper health
statistics. 1t enables the Health Auth
critics to deal intelligently with the
management of the hygiene of the
country, and the proper distribution of
its force.
In this also DR.. Garvin will be valu-
able man. He is a trained physician,
has had practical experience in dealing
with an epidemic, and will bring to
bear upon his duties both professional
and executive ability

In choosing the personnel of the Court
of Claims, the President has confined
himself TO the legal profession. One
would have thought that it would have
been wise to have had at least two
business men as a portion of the court
Nowadays business man has in many
cases had a college education, and is
versed considerably in commercial law.
His practical knowledge of business
transactions would be invaluable in
discussing and adjudicating upon the
rights Of the traders Who will come
forward with claims arising out of the
Chinatown fire. OF course, there may
be reasons why only lawyers should be
appointed, but they certainly do not
appear on the surface.

The water question gets more serious
from day TO day. Springs that have
never failed within the memory of a
generation, have run dry, There is one
in Pauoa Valley which was supposed to
be inexhaustible, and it is now nearly
exhausted. The celebrated spring at
Punahou is very low. The valley res
ervoirs are almost empty, supplying the
very smallest trickle of water. 1t is a
very serious condition of affairs, and
the worst of ii is, there seems no likeli-
hood of a change for the better. Each
returning day shows a brazen sky and
a blazing sun. The equinox just teased
us with a few showers, and then passed
us by. We may get rain at the change
of the moon-some people believe in
lunar infiuences-but it looks very much
as If we were up against period of
drought which previous experience
shows US comes to the South and North

The skylark is becoming quite a fea-
ture in the vicinity of Honolulu. On
Pacific Heights these little songsters
carol merrily, the sweet clear notes
ringing as the tiny birds rise higher and
higher into the air. They were origi-
nally let loose some years ago on the
Leilehua plains, and have gradually
worked their way towards Honolulu.
along the mountain ridges. Though
Slylarks have done well, other birds
which have been let loose, have died or
been killed off. The Java sparrows, of
whom a good many pairs were turned
loose, have quite disappeared Why
canaries should not get along is not
clear, but they should be canaries
which have been brought up in a state
of nature and able to fend for them
selves. Canaries which have been bred
in cages are utterly helpless when
thrown on their own resources. There
should be a scientific preservation and
introduction of birds, as there is in
other countries.

PLAGUE AND RATS.

The plague made it's weekly appear
ance again, after giving us a rest for
the regular seven days. The popularity
Of the case, however, lies in the fact
that the unfortunate child who was the
victim, only developed symptoms Of
plague on Friday, while through the
week she was considered to have
typhoid fever. 1t is in this insidious-
ness that the danger of the disease lies.
In its incipient stages physicians are
unable to diagnoze it. And again a
case may appear suspicious and the
patient be taken to the plague hospital
only to find that the case is not one OF
plague at all.
In this last case, it is possible that
infection came in the clothes Of the
