At this season Of the year women need
to be cautioned against burning the candle
at both ends. The stress of the holiday
rush was no sooner over than, with an earn
estness that flung prudence to the cardinal
points of the compass, overlapping engage
ments were made that crowd Woman's lives
with exhausting excitement.
What with social, musical, theatrical and
phiianthropic interests it requires the exer-
else not only of a fine self-reStraint, but
also of rare discrimination to so choose be-
tween the multiplicity of pleasures offered
as to reap enjoyment or profit from the
embarrassment of riches. The unfortunate
majority, lacking that moral fiber required
for the seeming Self-denial of limiting their
pleasures, elect to go the whole pace. The
marvel is not that Lent or, at latest, spring
brings so many nervous and physical break
downs, but that the number is not trebled.
1t is woman's besetting sin to overdo.
While Il minority is constrained to a ruinOus-
ly high pressure life by circumstances, most
of the culprits are voluntary ones. They
are free agents in the ordering of their
lives, but so bitten by the mania for ex-
element that they are completely III its
thrall.
As there are chlorodyne fiends, so are
there club and bridge whist fiends. In both
cases what was primarily intended as
benefit is perverted by abuse into an I'M
mitigated evil.

TO ACQUIRE POISE.

When the weight of the body is upon the
balls of the feet the spine is relieved of all
strain and a woman so poised can stand for
half dag without firing, ana to her walking
will become pleasure. With the body in
this position every part will do its proper
work, and there will be no tensity or frlc-
ton, such as exists when we are putting our
various muscles to uses for which they are
not intended. If at first, in standing prop
erly poised, the muscles of the legs tire this
is because they are now receiving the strain
of standing. instead Of the hips, and are not
yet accustomed to their natural use, also be-
cause they are being held too tense. In order
to rest, do not stand first upon one hip and
then upon the other, which throws the body
out of poise at once and is injurious in many
ways. Rise on the toes once or twice or
bend the knees several times. This will re-

LOWRY PRIVATELY
ADMITS AMBITIONS
Street Car Man Seeks Clapp's
Seat in the
Senate.

The Washington correspondents per-
petrated no surprise on the Minnesota
politicians when they telegraphed
home the intelligence that T. Lowry,
citizen and promoter, is a candidate
for the United States senate.
The Washington correspondents say
that Mr.. Lowry privately devulged
his aspiration to succeed Senator
Moses E. Clapp, whose lease on the I'M
expired term of Senator Davis termi-
mates in January, 1906
Mr.. Lowry took a strong hand in the
selection of the Hennepin senate dele
cation at the last election. He has no
good reason to believe that Gen. George
P. Wilson, associated with Mum in the
states merger case, or Senator Call
hOun, who defeated Sherman S. Smith,
will be unfriendly to his senatorial am
billions. Indeed, Mr.. Lowry expects to
go into the Republican senatorial eau
Gus backed by the solid Hennepin dele
cation.
Clapp has lost the friendship of many
of the strong politicians, but he has
gained friends in the state senate
through his efforts in behalf Of men
who were nominated and elected in
spite of the opposition Of the state ad-
miniStration. Now it is said that Sen
ator Nelson has become attached to his
colIeague and Will use his influence to
secure the return of Clapp.
HeatWOle is now considered out of
the senatorial race by the Washington
forecasters. They also think he will
not take hand in state politics, as a
candidate, at least, until after Robert
G. Dunn has his fling at the guberna-
torial nomination. Few politicians in
Minnesota have believed that Heat
Wole is a candidate for either Clapp's
seat or gubernatorial honors, although
the state central committeeman used
both as proposition clubs in the speak
ership fight which went Heatwole's
way.
Mr.. Heatwole is now discussed as
ambassador to Russia and public print
er, position which President McKin-
ley wished to give the Third district
organizer. The latter is probably more
to Heatwoles liking, as 1t would not
seriously interfere with his taking an
effective hand in the next state cam
paign.

ABOLISH HAIL COMPANIES.
Senator Stephens Has Scheme to Put
State in Insurance Business.

Senator A. D. Stephens stands spon-
sor for scheme to wipe out the hail
insurance companies and put that class
of insurance business in the hands of
the state.
Mr.. Stephens plan contemplates an
indemnity assessment made by county
assessors on growing crops. The taxes
collected under this crop assessment
are to be paid into the state treasury
and disbursed in indemnities for crop
losses by hail, on proof Of loss. The
senator says his scheme is not social
istic, nor would it prove complicated
or burden on the state. The expense,
he claims, would be very slight, as the
work, aside from adjustment of losses,
could be done with the present state
machinery and adjustments could be
made by county officials.
The excuse for the plan, according to
it's author, is that the hail insurance
companies are-not builded on the rocks.
He says Of thirty-fve companies or
ganized in Minnesota, eighteen have
failed, and the seventeen remaining
are In precarious condition He
thinks the farmers of the state are in
favor of his scheme and that it will
have strong popular backing. He is
preparing bill embodying the essence
of his scheme for introduction In the
upper house.

THE PRINTING ART
AND PRINTERS OF
ST. PAUL
The Capital City Supplies a
Large Share of the Print
ing and Publications Read
Throughout the North
west.

One Of the most important indus
quite a percentage of people in this
city, is the printing interest. The bus
mess district, especially on East Third,
Fourth and Fifth streets, is dotted
here and there with innum able print
ing plants of all kinds and descriptions
some of them the largest to be found
on the American continent. The ma
jority of the firms are specialists and
are content to supply the demand for
their particular work. With the print
ing and publishing line like with many
other industries, st. Paul is naturally
the center or hub and aids largely
in supplying that vast expanse of ter
ritory from the Great Lakes-to the
broad Pacific. Many of the largest
buildings in the city house exclusively
some of the enormous printing plants,
and they are equipped to produce in
the most modern and pleasing way to
the eye everything pertaining to the
production upon which lean the art
and science of the world. There are
over 100 publications published in st.
Paul, independent of the thousands of
individual papers, such as catalogues,
price lists and trade bulletins. They
include five daily papers, all equipped
with the most modern machinery in
Guiding chromatic or color presses,
Merganthaler machines, sterotyping,
etc. The presses used in the different
printing offices vary according to the
line of work from a press capable of
10000 impressions an hour to the cop
per plate or original Gutenberg idea of
printing.

Rabbi Hirsch Says Their Morality Is

CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-Fervid denun-
citation of Sunday school books marked

subject was, What Shall Children
Read?" He said that most of this
church literature for children should
be labeled as poison. After telling of
the Importance of good reading for.
children, Dr. Hirsch, in referring to
Sunday school stories, said:
There is not a single note in this
trash that rings true to the life or
character of the child In these books
all sorts of impossibilities are calmly
assumed, and God is dragged into them
in the role of a brutal and bungling
policeman. There are no words in the
Anglo-Saxon tongue that would ade-
Quately characterize their stupidity.
"The Sunday school books are worse
than dime novels. Their theology is
damnable and their morality Is below
the freezing point. Even If they were
not liable to these objections they
should be condemned for their literary
style, for they contain SO much bad
grammar and baby talk that they are a
cruel infection on the child"
