 If there is any doubt as to whether or not Ansonia should build T new school house, perhaps it might be well to hear just a word from the parents of children who are disconnected and robbed of school privileges because such building is not already up. Their testimony would doubtless make it pretty evident that if 1t is going to take Ansonia as long to build new school house as it did to turn the first schovelful of dirt for the new city hall, it is time she was at it.-An- sonia Sentinel.
 The lamentabie feature of Governor Odell's taking possession of the party machinery in his state without resign ing from the office to which the peo- ple elected him is not more in the fact itself than in the comparative absence of popular protest against it.

Airship builders from all parts of tbe world are bringing their craft to St Louis to compete for the $200,000 of fered in prizes by the Louisiana Pur- chase exposition at the greatest aerial contest ever waged in the worlds his tory. More thought has probably been expended in an effort to discover some way of perfecting means of aerial transportation than to any other sub ject, and the results of these efforts are shown at the worlds fair. An aeronautic course has been defined and immense houses built for sheltering the balloons prior to the contests. Santos Dumont has been in St Louis to make arrangements for entering his latest and most improved airship in thet races with the hope, of winning the capital prize of $1O0,0OO.

With the removal of the last of the
 diplomatic and fiscal obstacles to the building of the Isthmian waterway,
 says an exchange, the first important work is the sanitation of the canal
 zone. which Prof Barr, one of the com- missioners, thinks can be done for $2,- 100000. That does not sound like an extravagant sum for putting the 18th.
 mus in healthful condition. The cities of Panama and Colon. which have wal lowed in filth since they were founded, will be put and kept in cleanIy condi- ton. Because of the lay of the land that will not be an easy matter as re- gards Colon. We'll drained camps Ut different points will be provided for canal laborers. A copious supply of pure water is to be provided. A war will be waged on the mosquitoes, whose bites convey malarial levers and other diseases. The sanitation of the canal zone is no trifiing matter, but it must be done at whatever cost be- fore the work of constructing the canal can be pushed with any degree Of vigor or effectiveness. The reason for this is obvious. The great problem i'll connection with the canal, accord ing to Admiral Walker, is that of the labor supply. There will be no sur plus. no matter how extensively ma chinery is used. If the health of the thousands of workers is not protected in every possible way the mortality among them will be heavy, and the progress of the work will be delayed. The stories told about the terrible loss of life attending the construction of the Panama railroad are doubtless ex- aggerated. though unquestionably the
 mortality was very great, and it is ap, parent that if the precautions which science has shown to be necessary are not now taken the canal zone will be thlckly strewn with graves, and there will often be shortage of labor. Re gard for human life is a sufficient req son for the sanitation of the canal
 strip Another sufficient reason is the fact that thereby the canal can be built more speedily and economically

Not a little anxiety is felt concern ing the safety of missionaries in that part of Korea which Is now being overrun by the armies of Russia and Japan, says an exchange. The Amer ican Presbyterian church (North) has in Korea 70 missionaries. BPS congre- gations, over 5000 communicants and nearly 5000 enrolled catechumens. There are central stations and 372 outstations. The southern Presbyter- ian board and the two great branches of the Methodist Episcopal cl rch are also we'll represented in Korea. Some of these missionaries and their families have left the field, but the larger part of them refuse to leave their work and their people, although their stations are directly in the path of war Although this may seem foolhardy, it is pointed out by those acquainted with the situation that the people of northern Korea in large numbers have a childlike confidence and dependence upon the missionaries and that some 4.0OO of the people in s&
 that vicinity have become Christians and regard the missionaries as their natural recourse for sympathy and advice in time of trouble. The mis- sionaries are therefore reluctant to leave their Christian churches, be cause it would be in the nature of de sertion and likely to cause panic. This attitude on the part of the mis- sionaries is highly commendable and indicates the high plane upon which their Christian work is carried on, though it would be the part of safety, if not of wisdom. to abandon the field, at least temporarily.

The First Swim Of The Year

The first swim of the season Is with out a peer as serious menace to the health. combined with acute personal suffering.

 And immediately after the hearty ? o'clock dinner--Which, as every phy- sician knows, Is a most suspicious moment for bathing-a dozen boys with towels stuck under their jackets may be seen leaving the school grounds in n furtive manner so as not to attract the notice of the "old man" who is known to harbor certain old fashioned prejudices against swim ming in the early spring when the water is as cold as ice and malaria turks about the river banks.

 Which one of us will ever forget the ghastlv misery of that early spring swim? The icy coldness of the water, the oozing turf on which we undressed and left our clothes, the gusts of chill wind that swept down the river the sharp stones over which we walked and the awful coidness of the water that was spattered on our backs by our merry comrades!--James L.

The battle with the hips has come to be one of the American woman's trials. Tt has been said that she is afiicteci
 with larger hips than any woman in
 the world. Whoever it was made the statement has no statistics to prove his
 case Figures on the subject have never been collated. My daily mail
 brings many letters of this kind: Cant
 you tell me some way to reduce my
 hiPs?' Many others read: Please. Miss Morton, teach me how to build up
 my hips" am driven to the conclu-
 sion that the American woman's hips
 would be quite perfect in size and form if an average of these afflicted ladies could be obtained.
 In the first place let me impress 1t
 upon you all that exercise, yes. the
 same kind of exercise, both builds up and reduces flesh. This may sound like nonsense, but 1t is so Which it does depends upon how rapidly and violently it is performed. Taken slow ly, 1t increases the building of tissues. Taken rapidly. 1t burns up the carbona- naceous food that is part of your dai- ly diet and so burns away excessive adipose. If you are thin and wish to increase your measures. use the same motions given to the heshy, but never hfIos yOhESGtL 4Wltn IHen ana never go through them quickly enough to pro- duce 2 heavy perspiratioh.

Linen woIl PaneIa

There is considerable scope for the ntmple needlewoman in the present day fancy for embroidered linen wall panels. For a boudoir or morning room or girls 'den" nothing could be more attractive. Panels of white or soft cream worked in a variety of shades are undoubtedly the prettiest, but certain soft greens or delicate blues or for a room of sunless aspect, combination of yellows would be equally admirable in result. Girls who are clever in design as well as In en- broidery always take much pleasure In working this modern kind Of ta- pestry for the adornment of their rooms.
