RoosEvELT's SON PLEASED.
His Pony Was Taken Up in Elevator
to Bedside.

Archie Roosevelt, who is recovering
from an attack of measles, had a
visitor the other day, whose call will
do more to restore him to health than
all the medicine the doctor can give
him. Soon after Archie began to con-
yalesce he begged to be allowed to
see his spotted pony, Algonquin,
which is his constant companion when
he is we'll 1t was too soon for Archie
to leave his room and Mrs Roosevelt
was compelled to decline the request.
Charles, the groom, who looks after
Algonquin, thought the matter over
and concluded that if Archie wanted
to see his pony he should do so.
Without confiding his plans to any
one, he led the pony the other day
into the White House and along the
corridor into the elevator. When the
second floor was reached, Charles led
the pony into Archie's room. Archie
was delighted. This is the first time
that horse has ridden in a White
House elevator.

DONE Stint Your lunos,

Every man and woman in America in
stead of breathing a pint of air or less
| at every breath can just as easily have q
quart The price is the same, there is
plenty OF it, of excellent quality. If each
were paid a cent for each such breath,
they would soon find that they did not
forget to take them that it is not only
easy to do, but that a new buoyancy and
a sense of strength, and consciousness
of not firing half as easily as formerly
nave come and seem to stay. That fuller
breathing is purifying the blood, making
the heart do better work. indeed, is helm
ing every organ in ali that 1t has to do
writes William Blake in Christian En-
deaVor World.
Perhaps no one else has ever told how
to breathe thus better than wonderful lit
tie Edward Checkley. He says:
'4Ihe simplest preparatory exercise is
full long breathing. While stanolng or
SITTING. in any proper attitude, with. the
chest free, take In a long breath until the
lungs seem full taking care at the same
time not to harshly strain the lungs or
muscles. Hold the breath thus taken for
few seconds, and then allow 1t to slow
~ leaVe the lungs. BY consciously breath
ms in this manner, the lungs Will be en-
larged and strengthened and the breath
ing Will become slower. Normal breath
ing, when the body is at rest, should not
include more than 10 breaths IN a minute.
At the outset long breaths as Of
ten as you stink of it. You may not
think of it more than once or twice a
day at the begging. Then you will find
it easy to remember every nour or so,
and then twice or three times an hour,
unul finally the habit is formed and the
old, short, scant breath-a mere gasp in
many people-is entirely abandoned
Breathing in this way with the body

easier yet. And. as Checkley ADDS, "A

Bathinu With Lemons.

Special faith has been placed in par
ticular prescriptions for the bath by
renowned beauties of every age. In
Paris today the aromatic bath is in
general request among beauties who
can afford to spend a large sum every
week upon their additions. When a
fashionable Frenchwoman takes a
bath of this kind her maid lines the
bath with a linen sheet made to fit it
precisely She then throws in what is
called a bathbag, containing in
gradients calculated to beautify the
skin and to charm away the WEAKNESS
and lassitude left from overtaxation
or ennui, and fills up the bath with
distilled water of the required heat.
A favorite recipe for an aromatic
bath-bag is one that Queen Marie
Antoinette herself used-a pound each
of thyme, sweet marjoram, hyssop,
mint, sage, rosemary, borage, crushed
rice and crushed barley in two quarts
of water to which has been previously
added handful of salt. The result is
strained and poured into a bath. An
other very favorite tonic bath is made
of eau de cologne, which appeals less
to some people than one of lavender
water Verbena and rose water are
| also used in the connection of aromatic
| bags. The lemon bath, which is
in request among people incline to
embonpoint, Is easily made. Three
| lemons are cut In slices after the outer
skin has been removed. The pips are
taken away, and the remainder placed
in a jug of boiling water. This must
stay as it is for a whole night. In the
morning it Is strained, and the result
is added to the bath-AnSWers

Draping the bed is an important
question. The wrong thing can go SO
far toward spelling the effect of
room that something should be used
over it outside of the white spread IS
the accepted method these days, says
the Philadelphia Press.
Swiss, dotted or plain, over eolored
silk slip is often used. But such drap-
cry belongs to those with plenty of
maids and an unlimited laundry bill.
For the others there is charming
spread of lowered muslin, like dim
ity, trimmed with coarse lace.
F'lowered cretonne is simple design

Huge roses in one color on cream
ground should be chosen. Line it with
sateen the same shade and put four or
six rows of demonstrating at the hem.
This should be large enough to cover
the entire bed, going over the pillows.
Keep the night pillows on and dent the
| spread in Il line beneath them in order
to give a semblance of shape. In doing
| this you get away from the necessity
of having day pillows and shams.
Probably you won't like the new
method of the colored spread. Then
do use the day pillows instead of
shams. Get large, square, hard pillows
and cover them with cases of heavy
linen, with a monogram embroidered
in the centre in white; make the hens
three inches wide with hemstitching.
When arranging the room for the
night take these pillows off with the
fancy spread, put them in the closet
and replace them with the soft night
pillows.
If you do not use either the elabor
ate white or the lowered spread that
covers the bed and touches the floor
then by all means put a valance around

white muslin will answer. Two OF
three of them last a season. They
