her health. She shoots up tall, fiat
chested, colorless, and lacking in rea-
sonable proportions. Wired and atrop-
led by rough wear and unseemly habits,
that delicate form shrinks and withers
from the norm of health and beauty.
No longer have our girls the pleasant
contours and healthy lines of MULE
brity. They tend to become aseXual,
and to conform to a standard which
is not theirs but mans.
If we had been sensible, perhaps, We
should have taken warning from a
study of primitive man as represented
in the savage tribes of to-day The
squaw of the Indian, the Kafir woman
the female of all races who is subject
ed to undue physical eXertion, loses
early her pieturesqueness, her shapeli-
ness, and her beauty. The young saw
age lives a healthy life, and is comely:
her elder, under the dire influence of
physical strain, becomes a scarecrow.
French writers have agreed to keep
up the silly tradition that Englishwom-
en- have large feet and protruding teeth.
This is a libel on Englishwomen. But
it would be truth to charge them in the
present generation with lacking the de-
Velopment proper to their sex.
The older novelists, when they de-
sired to depict a heroine, represented
her as a pretty, rounded creature, for
choice rather short of stature. We
must conceive that they were more or
less true to the facts Of their day. But
in modern times our heroine is usually
described for us as tall and lissom. Lis
som is an admirable word. but it is only
too often a polite paraphrase for lean
ness. The sex tends to emaciation, to
a defective development of the chest
and to the mental qualities which those
things involve.
This inherent vice in the training of
girls is in even greater evidence across
the Atlantic. where Mr.. Dana Gibson
weekly deludes our kinsfolk into the
belief that the American girl is as he
draws her. There are practically no
Gibson girls in America, and there are
no Du Maurier girls any longer in Eng
land. The race is extinct, and in its
place is the somewhat gaunt, flat-chest-
ed young woman who may be seen in
her thousands in the street or at any
public gathering.
Exercise, in short, is not the neces-
sity to woman that it is to man, and
when women not only are encouraged
to take too much exercise, but are also
encouraged to take it in Objectionable
forms, it is evident that the decay o.

of Coal Had Been Taken Aboard.
Blue Jackets Answered CnnnOn's
Call, but Ensigns at Fair Grounds
Didn't Hear 1t.
Under full head of steam the United
States gunboat Newport is now on the
high seas making for Port of Plata,
Hayti.
At about o'clock last night anchor
was pulled up and the war vessel was
gotten under way. During the after
noon Commander Metz received a mes
sage from Washington to proceed in all
haste to the Haytian port.
During the morning the gunboat was
coaled and provisioned, but it was not
intended to get away in such a hurry,
and some of the men were given shore
leave. Several of the young officers
had gone to the fair grounds and were
taking in the Midway when the hurry
up orders were received by Capt. Metz
One OF the guns on the vessel was
fired as q signal to the men on shore
to report back Immediately, and mes
sengers were sent in search of the en-
signs who were with friends. Every
thing was hustle and excitement on the
Newport and while preparations were
being made to get under way visitors
were not allowed on the boat. A full
stock Of provisions was put in place, a
supply of fresh water was taken on,
and 100 tons of coal were taken for the
trip.
Commander Metz, his officers and
the enlisted men on the Newport with
one accord, expressed regret that they
had received orders that made it i'm
perative that the gunboat should leave
Savannah at once. They were all
the city and the officers expressed their
appreciation of the attention that had
been shown them.
An effort had been made by Com
mander Colding of the Naval Reserves
to have the Newport remain in the
river until Wednesday, but Congress-
man Lester wired that the Secretary

officers and men. Her armament is

Augusta Has Made Her Elaborate
Preparations.
Augusta, Nov. 9.-Augusta is rapidly
filling up with Confederate Veterans
from all over Georgia, and the indica-
tions are that the reunion beginning to-
morrow morning will be the largest and
most successful ever held in the state.
Broad street is deliberately decorated
with bunting, and the street fair, which
is in progress at the same time, con-
verts this great thoroughfare into a
midway. Another side attraction is
the presence of Troop C of the United

rough riding Another is the Augusta

ed to-day with a fine collection of
chickens, dogs, Belgian hares, etc.

THE Pope in his office cannot sepa-

to provide for this society liberty for
Catholics in all parts of the world.
Efforts are now being made to destroy
the liberty of the Catholic truth, which
the church must absolutely oppose as

Are Becoming Less Beautiful.
Athletics Develop a Distinct Type.
Du Maurier's Girls.
From the London Mail
During the last twenty years and
more we have never ceased to plume
ourselves on the supposed fact that,
with the improvement of modern con-
ditions and the increasing attention to
physical exercise, our women have
greatly added to their health and beau
ty.
Gymnasiums have been annexed to
every girls school, and our daughters
and sisters have been encouraged to
bicycle, fence, shoot, ride, play ten
mis- and golf. Even cricket and foot
ball and hockey have been added to
the games which the sex may prac-
tice, not only with impunity, but with
advantages. Now that we have en-
joyed this curriculum for nearly a gen.
Grafton it is time we took stock and
reckoned UP the debit and credit bal
ances.
Have women been benefited by the
revolution in their education and train
ing?
In view of the falling birth-rate, and
the many faminine problems that -four
ish like weeds to-day, it is an impor-
tant question for the race. 1t is re-
markable how the type has changed
during the last sixty or seventy years.
When our grandmothers were celebrat-
ed and toasted as beauties, a different
ideal reigned. The toast was then
something petite, of pink complex
ion, of a delicious plumpness, and ami
mated by a lively and natural emo
tionalism. With the Introduction of
athletics and open-air exercise-ad-
mirable in their wayne developed a
different type.
The Cult of the ViGueen.
That type may be seen at it's best
in the drawings of Mr. Du Maurier,
and ruled supreme in England for al
most a generation.
Du Maurier represented tall fully
developed girls, in jerseys, with GER
tain delectable Renaissance of the
Venus de Milo, rowing in lights" or
running hare and hounds" The pic
ture struck the imagination of the
hour, and every self-respecting girl
endeavored to model herself on those
graceful amazons. The "Viqueen" was
then the ideal, and to be small and
plump was to be despised, to be out
of the fashion. Croquet was aban-
doned, tennis was in the heyday of
it's popularity, and cycling and other
vigorous pastimes were to come.
The girl of to-day, however, unfor-
tunately bears no sort of family re-
semblance TO the "Viqueen."
She is tall. it is true, but she has
achieved hight at the sacrife of other
and more cardinal properties. Du
Mauriers dream of the seventies is
unrealized, and, so far as we can see,
will remain unrealized. The fact is
that woman is not suited to the sports
and exercise which she has adopted
for many years past
The result is that our women have
deteriorated physically.
Bicycling is not a suitable exercise
for woman; riding and fencing, and
the rest of the gamut do her no good.
The one exercise which is not only
natural, but stimulating and healthy,
that is walking, women have abandon
ed.
The modern girl begins early, and
continues till her marriage, and often
afterward, the unnatural athletics
which ruin her figure and frequently

TWO CARDINALS
NAMED BY Plus
The Pope Delivered an Address Touching Upon
the Policy of the Holy See.

Rome, Nov. 9.-The first secret con-
sistory of the new Pontificate was held
to-day. No American cardinal was ap-
pointed.
Several appointments of archbishops
and bishops were made, including that
of the Rev. ]. ]. Harty, an archbishop
of Manila.
The Pontiff walked from his apart
ment, accompanied by the personages
in immediate attendance on him. AS
he entered the hall of the consistory
the picture produced was very striking,
the red gowns of the cardinals and the
white robes and gold and red mantle
of the Pope giving a pleasing coloring
to the scene. The commanding ap-
pearance of the Pontiff was somewhat
softened by his silvery hair, under
which his blue eyes cleaned with
pleasure and friendliness.
When the Pope had seated himself
on the throne all those present, one
by one, paid him homage. When the
doors had been closed and a guard had
been stationed before them. outside,

appreciation.
The Pope began by recalling that at
first he wished to decline the pontih-

the sex must set in.
The chief harm in woman, as well
as the end Nature had in view for
her, is her femininity. When that
goes she loses for birthright.
What woman ever looked we'll on
horseback? 1t is enough to rob the
handsomest and best-formed woman of
her natural properties. The horsewom-
an fiourishes among us now more. than
she ever did. She rides to hounds.
she shoots, she impairs her natural
faculties, and she loses the feminine
graces of physique.
In all this, of course, there is more
delicate question, which may be light
ly touched on. The woman of to-day
is inferior to her mother and her grand
mother in beauty, and in health.
Whereas she should have benefited
largely by the improved hygienic con-
ditions of modern life, her false train
ing has prevented her from doing so.
She gets better air probably but she
lives more unhealthily, because she is
striving to conform to an impossible
standard.
Our grandmothers (whatever their
faults) were the mothers of healthy
children. If doctors We're canvassed
to-day, what report would they make
as to the motherhood of their patients?
With the decrease Of muliebrity must
necessarily go decrease IN the cOndi-
ton which make for healthy and
beautiful children.
Not only are modern families smaller,
but their conditions are more artificial.
We are rearing our daughters in
way that must incapacitate them
largely for the position for which Ma
ture designed them.
Whether this is an argument which
will avail with women 1 cannot say.
But perhaps they may be affected by
the undoubted fact that they are dete-
riorating in beauty and in physical at
tractiveness-H. r. Marriott-W Watson.
