I ITAL STATISTICS for the year 1905
show that there are just eight cities
IN the United States that have a lower
rate of mortality than Salt Lake City.
This statement is based on the figures
recently made public by the local board
Of health and by the census figures for
1900. The cities that lead Salt Lake

Portland, Ore; St Paul, Mimi; Seattle
and Tacoma. wash; Superior, Wis,

named is the healthiest Of them All.

the census year it was $50. The gain,
as wiIl be seen, is a very notable one

the period when Or. J. G. Elliott King,
predecessor Of the present health Off

count for the low rate is the fact re-

This letter was handed Capt. Jarvis as

been dumped into the hold, matches were
down and the steam sang in the pipes as
if anxious to start down east.
Capt Jarvis smote the air with pro-
family and summoned the mate, Mr. Jack

About Home Tones.

"You can tell the atmosphere of a
home, the general character of the
family as whole, as inevitably from
the manners and personality of the
maid who opens the door for you as
from the furnishings of the domiciIe
itself" said an observant householder
the other day. Both unconsciously
reflect the dominant tone in the Co.
nestle menage. l would rather do
without maid and compass my own
work with the help of an errand run
ner than have loud-yoiced, ill-man-
nered person about my apartment.
would as soon hang an advertising
chrome in my hall or drape my win
dows with red bunting" This may be
an extreme view, but the fact remains
that too little attention is paid to this
important detail of the home. A guest
is often seriously Inconvenience By a
thoughtless, discourteous maid, and
nothing adds more to the comfort Of
an entire household than a gentle
woman, whatever her color or class,
as servitor. Chicago Daily News.

BLOOD CIRCULATION.
Greatly Assisted and Improved by
the Habit of Proper
Breathing.

The secret of health, as every INTEL
ligent physician knows is free and full
circulation of blood, and this circula-
ton is dependent absolutely on thor
Ough oxygenation. In many cases
where erroneous habits of living have
been so long continued that conges-
ton has become chronic in one shape
or another-obesity, govt, rheumatism,
constipation or tuberculosis having
camped in the system and crippled it
the patient is not apt to be in con-
dition to readily assimilate sufficient
quantity of oxygen direct from the at
mosphere The breathing apparatus
must first be properly developed, so
that the patient shall be able to grad
ually increase the supply Of air to the
system, until at last he RECEIVERS the
normal power of deep breathing, writes
Maurice Manning. M D., in Vim
With the building up of the lungs
through proper breathing there is a
metabolism of all the tissues and or
gans, so that, for most men, breath
ing exercises are more important than
any mere muscular exercise. Not only
the lungs, but all the internal organs
are brought into play by correct breath
ing. 1t develops the heart, stomach,
liver and kidneys directly and indj-
reilly, and nCurishes all these organs
as they should be nourished by more
blood and better blood in constant and
regular circulation. Breathing, there
fore, is sovereign remedy for our ma
tional disease of nervous depletion. It
might well replace the countless tonics,
stimulants and anOdynes now so COM
monty resorted to, where results are
nothing less than tragic in thousands OF
cases.

FUR-TRIMMED SILK FROcKs.
Quaint Revival OF an Old Style That
Makes a Charming Recep-
ton Gown.

The fur-trimmed silk frocks are
more Of an innovation than fur
trimmed velvet frocks, and straight
way carry ones thoughts back to the
day of the 1880 silk gowns and fur tip
pets, says the New York Sun. In these
costumes is found the fullest admissi-
bic expression of the 1880 idea, which
is much modified in the velvet gowns,
although even these have pelerine lines,
long shoulder droop and ample skirt
fullness
Silk of all kinds is being worked into
winter frCcks and is coveted for Wis
iting costumes as much as for house
wear. In fact, the fur-trimmed silk
gown is first and foremost for visiting
wear, for restaurant luncheons, for
teas, for receptions, for matinees. 1t
is quaint affair and must be well han
died to be actually successful.
The new soft taffetas are much in evil
dence in these costumes and the
changeable or shot effects are particu-
larly chic, although rumor says that
tickle Paris has exhausted the resources
Of the shot silk and gone over to one
tone silks
First of all one must choose ones taf-
feta wisely and insist upon having a
quality absolutely without stiffness.
Charming color schemes may be found
in the shot silks, either in varying
shades of one color or in contrasting
color. These changeable effects are,
perhaps, even more lovely in louisines.
Some of the very pink violet shades
shot with white give beautiful tonings,
and a soft dull blue shot with brown
that might be described as rather deep
champagne is most effective, especially
with trimming Of beaver Combina-
lions of the water blues and greens are
also happy, but it is useless to attempt
description of the colorings.
There are innumerable new silks.
One called the Sappho, having about
the quality of soft taffeta, but satiny
finish and coming only in plain colors,
IS decided favorite. Among heavier
silks a rich armure we've lakes strong
claim for favor. A rich gros grain al
most as pliable as fine cloth is used for
whole costumes, and particularly salts
factory in separate blouses. New ben
galines with heavy cord are to the fore.
All of these silks and many more are
fashioned into street frocks and
trimmed with fur; though of course the
fur is rot obligatory. and silk frocks
ruched, ruf1ed, frilled and otherwise
made frivolous without fur are tremen-
dously pC3UI-~. For trimming the silk
street frock narrow bands of fur are
usually called into service, and, to have
the true 1890 touch, these bands must
be like the old-fashioned rouleaux
The effect is attained by bacl ing the fur
with cotton wool, to give it the slightly
rolled or padded appearance.
The skirt is usually full and encircled
with a varying nun Der of fur bands, al
though sometimes the fur appears only
in one band a the hottCm. The bodices
present many variations, although all
must have the exaggeratedly long Shout
der line, the big sleeve, with it's balloon
fullness near the elbow and the high
girdle effect.
