ITO some extent every man is a law
unto himself, even when it comes to
his bathing habits. and the same is
true OF women. There is q leading
skin specialist in New York who says
that he has had patients who could
not battle in water at all because
water irritated their skin, and yet ap-
parently they were perfectly healthy
persons. Fortunately such cases are
rare.
I'm my opinion. however, a certain
class of people battle too much. Baths,
as rule. are stimulating, and over
stimulation of the skin depletes the
secretive organs. 1t is possible to get
as much exhilaration and stimulation
from a bath as from taking a certain
quantity of whisky. In the average
woman's case, a daily tepid bath is
think, more beneficial to the nervous
system than either a very cold or a
very hot bath. and for this reason:
EARLY in the morning her vitality is
below normal. at least it is not at its
maximum. She gets out of bed. takes
a plunge in cold water, gives her ner-
vous system decided shock, and for
several hours afterward, perhaps, feels
| the better for it. But often a reaction
comes which sets the nerves longing
for another stimulant, just as the ha-
bitual topper longs for another drink. A
healthy person need battle only to keep
clean. The old-fashioned plan of a
good soak every Saturday night and
a rub down with a damp towel once a
day will fill the bill perfectly.
Two tub baths a day are too much
for any but strong men to indulge in,
but of the two the morning bath is to
be preferred to that at night, for the
reason that a bath Just before going
j to bed will often Danish sleep for hours
in many cases. 1t acts as a stimulant,
not as a scdative.
''The woman who would have equa-
bic nerves, sound digestion and good
all around health had better take only
one tub bath day, and that one-ex-
cept. perhaps, on occasion-neither
very hot nor very cold. A continuous
course of stimulants is dangerous"

VIEWED BY A FALSE LIGHT.

People, all unconsciously and
through no fault of their own, are,
says the New York Times. sometimes
placed in equivocal positions, the why
and the wherefore of which remain,
to their detFment, forever uneKplain-
ed, for the reason that on one side
the suspicion attached to them is I'M
suspected, and on the other that il
could not be verified without an accu-
sation which il would be impossible
to make. Among the Christmas gifts
given to a certain man last winter
was a notebook, on one side of which
was a colored representation of the
king OF beasts. 1t was foolish little
joke of the girl to whom he was en-
gagged, and just because she gave 1t to
him he kept 1t in his pocket as
memorandum book. One night he was
playing poker with some men and
women, and winning heavily. During
the game he pulled out his handker-
chief, and with ii the book, which he
pushed back into his pocket. AS he
did so, he caught sight of the face of
his vis-a-vis, who was regarding him
with very odd expression, the signifi-
canoe Of which did not dawn upon him
until later. When, after the same was
an in question:, with whom he had
always been on excellent terms, he
was, to his surprise. received with
marked GOODNESS. Then, turning her
back on him with absolute rudeness,
she proceeded to talk to some one
else. BY some unfortunate intuition
he remembered the incident at the
card table, and realized, with a fash
of inspiration, that Mrs. A. had seen
what she thought was packet of
honor cards, and had jumped to a
very uncomplimentary and erroneous
conclusion. He realized that IL he hes
itated, under the circumstances, he
would be lost, so, despite the snub he
had received, he again called her at
tention to himself by saying:
Il saw you noticed my notebook at
the card table. Mrs. A., and thought
perhaps you might like a nearer in
spection," at the same time drawing
out the book In precisely the same
fashion. and then handing II to her
with a bow He saw by the deep flush
OF guilty surprise that spread over her
face that she understood his meaning
and realized her mistake. She half
murmured an apology as she returned
him the little book, which she had
mistaken for cards, but he turned on
his heel and left her.
THAT woman might have done me
untold HARM he said afterward. ''It
was lucky for me that l guessed al

TO GET RID OF A BEAU.

Here are some of the rules Edmund
Russell once read to the Eclectic Club
on How to Get Rid of a Lover" says
the New York Press.
Step often on his feet.
Move your hands a little every time
he opens his mouth. 1t will make him
nervous.
Always ridicule men he admires.
Let him see you conversing with SUI
perior men while he sits bored and
unnoticed in the background.
Do not move when he attempts to
embrace YOU.
Should he offer a caress, turn little
aside
Ask him to love you when he is tired.
Never laugh when he laughs.
If both should happen to laugh at
the same time show that you are not
laughing at that at which he is laugh
ing.
interrupt him with another one that
has nothing to do with the one he is
about to tell you.
Find fault with all plans he makes
for your pleasure.
Ask him continually for things he
cannot give you.
This little list of rules would per-
haps have been more appropriately
labeled, How To Get Rid of a Hus-
band" for surely not more than one
of them would be necessary for getting
rid Of a lover. 1t is only the husband
who Is tied to us by law on whom we
have the chance to try all OF these
gentle little jolts.
1t would have been better for the
modern girl, however, IL the wise and
willy Edmund had employed his time

VIRTUES WORTH CIA TivATlNG.

The restraint Of household luxury
the dignity that can wear old clothes,
the honesty which refrains from az
pensive amusements. are virtues only
to be restored or rather recreated in
our country, through the individual eff
forts Of individual women.
The tyranny Of the mass over the
person, says a writer in the New York
Evening Post. is becoming not only a
notable blemish on our fair fame as a
nation, but it is depriving us of a de-
fined and noble ideal of living. The
bondage in which labor is held by
what ought to be it's protecting "un-
ion" could not be possible among men
who. however willing to combine for
mutual aid. were proud of their in
dividual independence and realized,
each for himself. the responsibility of
his personal opinions. A man must
have forgotten that he stands for him
self. a representative Of freedom OF
thought and of human rights, before
he shall give up the use of his own
tools or forbid his fellowman to work
at the bidding of the leader Of an or
ganization.
In his home a man ought to find an
encouragement to an Independence or
honorable living which few OF our
households afford. Under the restraint
OF the great conceded laws Of God the
moral right to live out our individual
lives has been granted to us, as II
never has been TO the people OF any
other country. and we are giving this
up with a strange. indifference TO our
privileges. The power to restore puri-
ty to our politics, honesty to our trades
and professions, and the evidences OF
