OLD AGE MlcRoRE.
Springfield Doctor Claims to Have
Found IT,

Springfield, Mass, June 29.-Without
saying it in so many words, DR..
Metchnikoff. bacteriologist Of the Pas
teur institute. leaves ii to be inferred
that he has discovered the microbe of
old age.
Several weeks ago a French scientist
announced that he had made similar
discovery. He explained it at seien-
titic lecture on the subject of "Sentl-
lty," which was treated with admirable
iucidity and simplicity, and was wholly
devoid of sensationalism, tho the an
nouncements which 1t contained We're
sensational in themselves.
The professors theory, III brief Is
that senility is a microbian infection.
1t Is well known that microbes are far
from being all inimieal to the human
body. Life would not be possible with
out the good Offices Of the benehclal
bacteria called 'maerophagi," which
spend their own existence in fighting
the unfriendly microbes, and thus pro-
long orr days.
fsut it now seems that the good mi
crobe turns Turk after man ha ;
reached certain age, and the diseov-
cry of that fact is the foundation of
DR.. Metchnikoff's theory. The ma
crophagi in question. after helping Us
to live, compass our downfall and
death.

Inr NEW WOMAN AS
MAN ANALY YES HER.

The question as to whether there is
any essential difference intellectually
between men and women remains all
ways a fascinating subject for discus
sion and Is as yet not likely TO be SET
tied. The arguments on both SIDES are
well known. One side holds that wo-f
men are functionally unable ever to be
mems equals, although they may have
an equivalent intelligence. They are
intended by nature to represent the
conservative force of the, human cou-
pie, and any great things in the way
of aesthetic creation must not be ex-
pected of them. The other side con-
tends that the conditions which have
surrounded women for so many gener.
ations have hampered their develop
ment and that as soon as the lncreaS-
ing opportunities for education ana
experience which we see in modern
life shall have operated for long
enough period woman's creative In
stinct shall be proved to be as broad
and as subtle as mans.
Now. these two theories illustrate
fairly well the priori and the pos
teriori method of philosophical rea-
soning. However we may speculate
upon the question, we should recognize
the fact that the evidence is not all In.
and this consideration alone lends
weight to the dogma of the mental
equality of the sexes. The earth, we
are told, has been in a condition to
sustain human life for only few hum
dred thousand years, while it will
probably continue to be adapted -
for mil
years more. The ratio is such that to
attempt to settle the question OF wo-
mans status at present, while she IS
only just growing out Of her position
as mans toy and chattel, seems ABB
surd.
So it is as il each woman were two
different women; one, primitive, hyper
sexed, the natural, instructive antag0-
mist of the male, mysterious. lnscruta-
BILE; the other, sapient and discriminate
ing, logical, or at least philosophlc. her
emotions, though potent, conscious 70
her-an actor rather than puppet OF
temperament. They are like twins
brought I'D in different countries and
speaking different languages.
Strange. this barrier and mystery OF
sexi Men long to scale 1t, yet would
not have 1t down, and 1t is strangest
and most elusive in these modern wo-
men through whose minds we catch
glimpses Of the primal creature be-
meath. like dim figures behind translu-
cent glass. Do physically functional
differences of sex predicate differing
mental functions, or have we been
oyersexed, creating for ourselves arti-
ficial differences which will not persist
in the era Of scientific thought? Time
alone can answer the question. and
there is time enough in which to coli
lect evidence. But at least our epoch
has fascination of its own, for now
surely woman is in transitional state
where the primitive instincts of sex
merge into analytical states of mind.
with the result that the woman of to-
day has all the old charms and many
of the new graces.

a short time the surface of the lagoo
was covered by a brown carpet of logs
running in strange patterns like wintI-

Up till now the weather had been

there.
Hamilton's papers began to tell of
washouts and cloudbursts in the south

some of that water here.
So finally the drive approached Its
end and all concerned began in antci-

awaited them. The few remaining
tasks still confronting them all at once

Triumphs Of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished and
put back; or they may be removed en-
tirely: bones are spliced; pipes take
the place Of diseased sections of veins:
antiseptic dressings are applied to
wounds, bruises, burns, and like inpur-
les before Inflammation sets in, which
causes them to heal without matura-
ton and in third the time required
by the old treatment. Chamberlain's
Pain Balm acts on this same principl..
1t is an antiseptic and when applied to
such injuries causes them to heal very
quickly. It also allays the pain and
soreness. Keep bottle of Pain Balm
in your home and it will save you time
and money, not to mention the incom-
venience and suffering which such In
juries entail. For sale by all Drug

WALKING TOURS
THROUGH THE COUNTRY.

TT fills the woman who must stay at
home with envy to read of the
three and four day walking picnics
ladies young and old are having here
and there. A party of women friends
start out early some fine morning; in
this most delightful time of the year.
They are lightly clad, they wear strong,
broad soled comfortable shoes built
for pedestrian use. They take with
them a small bag containing things
needed for an overnight stay; they also
take materials for lunch. They walk
through sweet country roads till noon;
then they stop in some patch of woods
and have their luncheon. They even
build camptires and cook eggs and
make tea or coffee. What is lacking in
their menu can always be sup Piled
from friendly farmhouses or village
groceries.
After rest, on the merry wa kers
go, perhaps to some historic spot or
studying botany or natural history or
even geologiZing along the way. AT
night there is always some villag, inn
or farmhouse where they may be shell
tered till morning. Now and then some
strong, ambitious women pedestrians
carry blankets and sleep outdoors in
the sweet, dark silence. A wagon with
all the fixtures for camping may ac-
company the party. Then they can
sleep outdoors every night.
1t is the custom at a well known
girls school to have a walking tour
every year in the late spring or early
summer. A number of the pupils, ac-
companied by some of the women
teachers, make the trip. To both girls
and teachers the occasion furnishes
health fun and instruction enough to
afford happy recollectlons the rest of
the year. The school has many friends
among residents on the routes usu-
ally chosen, and these HOSPITALITY en-
terrain the young ladies. This year
the girls went thirty-SiN miles alto
gether, no great walk in itself. but still
considerable of stretch for won en- in
this day of physical laziness amof 6 the
sex.
The schoolgirls took the journey in
easy stages, walking eight to ten miles
a day. A good walker even among wo-
men could accomplish that mu IN in
half a day with the greatest ease. The
girls, however, enjoyed themselves as
they went along, and that is the main
thing when one starts out to LedeS-
trianiZe for pleasure.
Very different is the walking CT the
women in the new mining camps OF
Alaska and the Canadian northwest.
Frequently women accompany their
men relatives to the gold regions.
Some of the new camps are fifty miles
away from a base of supplies, and
many time brave woman makes the
journey alone along a narrow, danger
Gus trail, fording creeks and wading
through marshes. The fine lady Iedes

something worth talking of when she
goes afoot five miles over q smooth

ABOUT NEATNESS.

There Is one charm every woman may
possess, and it is a very attractive one
-neatness The plainest woman is a
delight To look upon If her toilet is one
of exquisite neatness in every respect.
Her hair must be done up securely and
not look as if it were ready to tumble
around her shoulders at any moment.
Her gloves must be always mended, her
boots in perfect condition and never
any tag ends at the bottoms of her
skirts. Most men know nothing about
but will notice whether "a wo-
man is neat or not, and 1t is the quail
ity they most admire in woman.

"Thats the finest woman in this

aroused, as a man whose honesty had
been doubted.

Here it was again-the opposing
creed. And from such a source!
Thorpe's iron will contracted again.
"a woman is no excuse for q mans
neglecting his work." he snapped.
'Shorely not" agreed Junko serene
". II aim to finish out my time all

ferently. Suddenly the remaining half
mile to town seemed very long indeed.

Hot Weather Costumes

The great question of how to dress
in the burning hot weather is the cru
cial one. The linen suit white or ecru,
takes precedence for street wear. These
are almost invariably made with the
little, loose hanging Jacket, as the
blouse coat is too hot for continuous
wear. These little boleros are shorter
than ever, giving the effect of mere
blouse waist decorations. Some OF
them, indeed. are nothing but little
shoulder capeS cut very full. but with
out sleeves. They are embroidered and
incrusted with heavy lace appliqued all
along the edges of the body and sleeves.
and then the fabric is cut away from
below to give a transparent effect. The
shoulder effects are very long, which
doesn't necessarily mean that the
shoulders themselves are long, for that
