The Habit of Bathing.
From the Tacoma Ledger.

FROM the Tacoma Ledger
Americans are much given to the habit
of bathing and the general opinion is that
1t is good for them. They are bound to
have bath at stated times or demand the
reason why. This is true even of the
American soldier. who might be supposed 10
get careless about it. but he will battle if
there is water to be had and protest loudly
at it's absence. Many of the foreigners Of
the lower classes who come to this country
develop into good citizenship, and one of
the earliest symptoms of their change for
the better is their acquired liking for towels
and soap. 1t is notorious that some of the
Russian emigrants and others from coun-
tries bordering on Russian territory do not
at first comprehend the necessity or the joy
of bathing. The child of such q family was
sent home from school to be washed and
the mother explained that this could not
be done the youngster had been sewed
up for the winter" Nothing of this sort
would be possible in an American family
or one that had been in this well-washed
region long.

MEDIA GOLF TOURNEY.
Washington Players Make Good Quail
fvinp Scores

When play was begun at Media, Pa, yes
terday afternoon in the three-days tourna-
ment under the auspices of the Spring
haven Golf Club the course was very fast,
but by the time the third pair started out
a heavy rain came down, lasting for almost
two hours. This slowed the course by sew
eral seconds, but, under the rules, all were
compelled 20 continue play or be disquali-
fed,
The home club did not figure very largely
in the score. two getting place in the first
eight and two in the second. 1t is a nine
holed course, 2,940 yards. The play was
eighteen hole, necessitating the players to
go over it twice.
The best score of the day was made by
M S. Huff of the Aronomink Club who
made the course in SO, thereby securing a
silver cup. DR.. l.. l.. Harlan Of Washing
ton. d. c., made the first round In less than
bogie, but the second time over the course
he did not do SO well, his score being So.
The first eight will play the semi-finals
this afternoon for the Springhaven cup,
and the second eight for the consolation
cup. The finals will be played on Saturday.

A Curious Fraud.
From the London Post.

From the London Post.
A singularly impudent attempt at what
one can only term fraud was perpetrated
q few days ago. Some prints were offered
for sale to an entirely inexperienced person
at considerable price. They were de-
scribed as genuine impressions by Barto-
lozzi. but were. in fact. prints from half
tone process blocks, cleverly colored and
little stained. They had been mounted
and framed in black, and the backs stuck
down with leaves from a French eighteenth
century book. OF course, to an expert
enced eye the deception was Immediately
apparent, but many people do not know
one process Of illustration from another
and might easily rely on the appearance of
age and the good faith of the seller For
tunately in the case under notice no harm
was done. as the would-be purchaser took
advice before closing the bargain.

The marriageabe girl in Tunis has try
ing ordeal to go through after her be.
trothal to the man not of her choice but
whose choice she is. She has to be fatten-
ed to the required size before the ceremony
can take place. AS soon the betrothal
takes place she is taken to a room and
there cooped up till the fattening process
is concluded. Silver shackles are fastened
round her wrists and ankles, and the task
of her parents and future husband is to in
crease her bulk till her wrists and ankles
fill up the Shackles. If the husband is a
widower or has discharged his first wife
the girl has the shackles of the first spouse
placed on her. and she must I'LL them out.
1t takes a long time to do this, as rule,
and sometimes it cannotbe accomplished in
spite of all efforts. 1t is then open to the
future husband to cry off the bargain or
waive the condition. In the case of a
bachelor he takes care to see that the
