Health and Beauty.
plored by sages and reformers from
time immemorial. Yet, after all, it has
given way to power of good in regard
to the manner of living. Women are
now fully convinced that health and
beauty are synonymous terms. That
hitherto tyrannical goddess, Fashion,
must now adapt herself to the rules of
hygiene. Tiny waists and narrow
chests are decidedly out of date. Ply
Steal culture calls for the development
of muscles and firm flesh, and, conse-
quently, our girls are larger. stronger,
and better types of womanhood than
the girls of a generation or so ago.
What to eat must be governed by our
physical conditions. If you are too
thin eat salads that are plentiful in
olive oil and supply your bread gener-
ously with butter. The drinking of rich
milk will help to fill out the hollows
in your cheeks and make your form
more rounded. If a superabundance of
flesh threatens you then .appease, your
appetite with lean meat and such veg
etables as crosses, cucumbers, lettuce,
cabbage and tomatoes. Succulent
fruits may be eaten freely. A cup of
hot water drunk before breakfast helps
to keep away flabby flesh, besides be-
ing excellent for digestion.

Not Smart to be wicked.

There Is always a tendency among
very strong men and among boys who
are not quite Young men as yet to think
that to be wicked is rather smart it
shows that they are men. Oh. how often
you see some young fellow who boasts
that ne is going to see life, meaning by
that that ne is going to see that part OF
life which it is thousand-foid better If
man here constitute himself his brothers
keeper by setting an example to that
younger brother which will prevent him
from getting such a false estimate of life
as at. Example is the most potent os
all things If any one of you in the pres
ence of younger boys, and especially the
younger people of your own family mis-
behave yourself. If you use coarse and
pinsphemous language before them. you
can be sure that these younger people
will follow your example and note your
precept. 1t is no use to preach to them
II you do not act decently yourself. You
have got to feel that the most effective
way in which you can preach is by your
practice. Just as l was driving UP here
O friend who was with us said that in
his experience the boy who went out intn
life with a foul tongue was apt so to GO
because his kinsfolk, at least his intimate
associates themselves, had foul tongue
But while the life in the family cannot
do everything, while the associations or
friendship cannot do everything still the
friends, the father. the elder brothers can
do most toward seeing that the boys as
they become men become clean and hon.
orable men.

HONESTY AND
DECENT SPEECH
Address Of President Roosevelt
at Quarterly Meeting.
AUDIENCE OF TWO THOUSAND
RAINY WEATHER KEPT MANY
FROM ATTENDING.

Oyster Bay, N Y, Aug. 16.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt delivered the principal
address at the quarterly meeting OF
the Society of the Holy Name of
Brooklyn and Long Island held here
today. Decency of speech and conduct
constituted the theme of his address,
which was enthusiastically applauded
by ali audience of more than 1000 per-
sons, chiefly men.
During the afternoon special trains
brought hundreds of members of the
society to Oyster Bay from Brooklyn
and western Long Island. Threatening
weather kept many away, but although
a light rain fell during the exercises,
the crowd remained banked about the
flag decked stand on a beautiful MIL
opposite St Dominic's Catholic church.
AS President Roosevelt drove up 10
the stand in Il closed carriage, accom-
panied by Captain w. H. Brownson,
superintendent of the naval academy:
Secretary Barnes and representative
of the society, he was accorded an en-
thusiastic reception, band meanwhile
playing Hail to the Chief"
After the audience had sung Amer
ica," Father Power, rector of st. Dom
mics, introduced the president in fe-
licitous speech, in which he spoke of
the esteem in which Mr.. Roosevelt Is
held by the Catholics of this country.
When President Roosevelt rose he
was greeted with prolonged cheers ana
it was full minute before he was able
to proceed. He said:
Roosevelt's Address.
VERY Reverend Dean, Reverend
Clergy and You of the Holy Name So
ciety: I count myself fortunate in
having the chance to say word to
you today. and at the outset let me,
Father Power, on behalf of my neigh
bors, your congregation welcome you
here to Oyster Bay. I have a partial
right to join in that welcome myself.
for it was my good fortune in the days
of Father Powers predecessor, Father
Belford, to be the first man to put down
a small contribution for the erection OF
the church here. / am particularly
glad to see such a society as this -four
ishing as your society has fiourished,
because the future welfare Of our ma
ton depends upon the way in which
we can combine in our men. in our
young men, decency and strength. Just
this morning, when attending services
on the great battleship Kearsarge,
listened to a sermon addressed to the
officers and enlisted men of the navy.
in which the central thought was that
each American must be good man or
he could not be a good citizen. And
one of the things dwelt upon in that
sermon was the fact that a man must
be clean Of mouth as we'll as clean OF
life, must show by his words as we'll
as by his actions his fealty to the
Deity and the Savior, if he is to be
what we have right to expect of men
wearing the national uniform.

THE MARDI GRAS.

Rex made his triumphal entry into
New Orleans yesterday and the Krewe
of Proteus presented their gorgeous pa
geant last night in the presence of, per
haps, the largest multitude of people
ever gathered in the streets of that car
nival city.
The number of strangers exceeded
that of any previous year.
Aside from the homage paid the King,
the feature of the afternoon parade was
the popular demonstration in honor Of
Admiral Schley and General Wheeler,
both of whom had been created dukes Of
the realm for the occasion. They rode
near the head of the procession, through
solid masses of shouting men and past
the crowded galleries of applauding wo-
men.
At the conclusion of the parade Ad-
miral Schley, accompanied by Mayor
Capdeviele and General Wheeler, was
escorted By the Continental Guards to
their armory, where, in behalf of the
Schley Pleasure Club, City Attorney
Fillmore presented the Admiral loving
cup bearing an engraving of the flag
ship Brooklyn. The Admiral made a
felicitous acknowledgment of the gift.
Last night Proteus rode through the
streets, congested with people, at the
head of an unusually magnificent
pageant. The subject chosen was Rider
Haggard novel, cleopatra" and the
thrilling story of the Egyptian queen was
illustrated in 20 beautiful floats.
Following the parade, Proteus was
host at a brilliant ball at the French
Opera House. Admiral Schley, General
Wheeler, Miss Roosevelt and Miss Root
were the distinguished guests.
Nearly every state in the Union was
represented in the attendance, which
also included many guests from abroad
and the officers of the battleship Texas
and the French cruiser Tage.
The curtain rose at 1918, presenting
the maskers grouped in stricking tab
leau. The maskers occupied the floor
for an hour, after which the ball became
general.

view by Mr.. William ]. Bryan in Wash
ington on Saturday. He said
81 do not expect to see any man nom
mated on the democratic ticket during
the present generation who is ashamed
of or apologies for the position OF the
democratic party in the campaigns OF
1896 and 1900. If we cannot win with
leaders and conditions in harmony with
the views of large majority OF the
party we certainly cannot win when the
conditions and leaders are utterly OPP
posed to large majority of the party
So that whether the party would win or
not it is bound to make the hight
under leaders in harmony with the views
of the majority who will make strong
and steadfast fight for the principles IN
volved in the platform of the party.
Deserters from a political party can
no more be trusted than can deserters
from an army, and unless strict DIS
cinline is maintained in party, that
marty must fail The rank and file Of
the democratic party will not follow

the cardinal principal of the democratic
party is that the majority must rule so

Terrible railroad Accident.

collision which resulted in loss of life
and destruction of property occurred last
evening shortly after 10 o'clock on the
Big Four Railroad near Berea. A pas
senger train which left Cleveland at $3.50

rate of speed and the engines were re-
duced to mass of tangled scrap iron.

wAsHINGTON's BIRTHDAY DIN
NER.

The dinner given in London last night
by the American Society in honor of
WashiDgton's Birthday was the occasion
for brilliant assemblage; the chief fea-
ture of which was the welcome given to
Hon. ID. r. Francis, formerly United
States Secretary of the Interior and now
president of the Louisiana Purchase Ex-
position. Wishes of success TO the
exposition were expressed by the
speakers.
The Duke of Devonshire and Lord
Londonderry, members of the cabinet,
officially voiced the good will of the
British government, while such repre-
sentative Englishmen as the Lord May
ors of London and Bristol, the Lord
Provost of Glasgow, Lord Strathconao
Lord Rothschild, and Sir Charles Dixie,
J. H. Dalziel, Sir Thomas Dewar, Sir
Joseph Lawrence, Ebenezer Parks, Sir
Gilbert Parker and Joseph Walton. Of
the House of Commons, all gave express
sion to their hearty good wishes.
Among the many well-known Ameri-
cans present were Ambassador Choate,
Consul General Henry Clay Evans,
Stamford Newell, Minister to the
Netherlands; John Barrett, Thomas w.
Cridler, Lord Fairfax, Melville E.
Stone, Marshall Halstead, Halsey c.
Ives, of the ST. Louis Exposition;
Colonel Hunsiker, Captain Piper, Dep
uty Police Commissioner of New York;
all the United States Embassy staff and
many foreign representatives of the st.
Louis Exposition. Signor William
Marconi was also presented and re-
ceiyed an attention scarcely second to
that paid to the president of the ST.
Louis Exposition.
The Duke of Devonshire, in propos-
ing the toast "The President of the
United States" referred to Mr.. Roose-
Welt as man who had made his mark
as successful civil-service re-
former, great administrator, a
gallant military leader and an eminent
statesman, in whom he saw an intelligent
and earnest friend of England. ''Neyer
in any previous time" said the Duke Of
Devonshire, ''have Anglo-American re-
lations been more cordial. Both peoples
are in fairly good humor with them
selves, and so it is unlikely that they
should be in bad humor with each
other. welcome the tendency on the
part of the United States to take larger
and keener interest in affairs outside the
American continent"
Ambassador Choate, following in the
same strain, declared that any kind of
war on any kind of subject between
Great Britain and America would be not
only great calamity, but an unspeak-
| able crime.
