The Eastern Women.

For the most part the occupants OF
q large harem (in Morocco) pass a
very miserable life. says the London
"Sket,h. They have little or no ex-
ercise, too much to eat, and until they
have borne son to their owner their
position Is by no means pleasant
one. AS soon as the reproach Of child
lessness Is withdrawn they have a bet
ter status under Mohammedan law,
but even then the pleasure Of lying
upon cushions all day and eating
sweets from Paris is apt to pail after
a few months.
The quarters of the women are ma
turally hotbed Of most varied in
trigue. and the precautions taken by
the master Of the house do not always
succeed in maintaining the privacy SO
greatly sought after.
Every year the royal harem Is sub
iected to important changes. Many
5of the women are removed and gwen
to high officials of the court. This
saves considerable expense to the
royal household, and the gift is by way
of being regarded as compliment 1t

always on the lookout for recruits TOR
the harem. and many girls are brought
I'D with great care and attention, and
taught to play, sing and dance in the
hope that they may some day be hon

able to control the crowd and Ser

Washington. June 14.-It was an
nounced during the day that the for
NAL reply of the Russian government
to President Roosevelt's identical note
of last Thursday is In the hands of
the American government. The re-
sponse was handed to Ambassador
Meyer at st. Petersburg by Count
Lamsdorff and transmitted by the am
bassador to President Roosevelt. 1t
can be said that 1t Is In perfect con-
sonance with the oral assurance given
the president Monday by Count Cas-
sini, the Russian ambassador here. 1t
had been intended by the president to
make public the replies of both Rus
sia and Japan to his appeal for ces-
sation of hostilities In the Far East,
but a decision has been reached not
to publish them at this time. This de-
termination was arrived at at the sug-
gestion of both belligerents that the
publication of the responses at this
juncture might not be desirable. Off
cial assurance Is given, however, that
the informal statements of the con-
tents of the replies are not only accu-

The question is often asked how

thing. Is not pure air and pure water
beneficial to the system? If SO, will
it not benefit every organ of the sys-
tenn to purify the blood, and elimi-
nate the large amount of poison that
collects in the system? Is not regulat-
ing the bowels beneficial to the entire
system, and absolutely necessary to
the proper condition of health? If so,
why should it not be just as necessary
to open up the seven million pores in
the skin, which is the sewerage OF the
entire system, letting off the deadly
poison which thousands of people are
carrying about in their bodies perfect
ignorant of their condition. You can
easily see this process of renovation
can not help but benefit every part of
the human machinery.
