Rich Woman's Bath.

Clark takes up his residence there. his
young wife will have the most lux
urious bathroom in the world. 1t will
excel in its appointments the most
sumptuous baths of the early Romans.
and. beside it the bath of the modern
Oriental-which is a good deal more
of a fable than a fact-will pale into
insignificance. Onyx, alabaster and
the finest marble ever quarried enter
into its construction. There are show
ers and needles and plunges, and the
water will be filtered and will be as
pure and clear as crystal.
But the one novelty Mrs. Clark will
possess which even Caesar did not en-
joy will be an ingenious arrangement
of tiny faucets from which rare per-
fumes may be drawn and the water i'm
pregnated with their sensuous doors.
She may battle in softened water
which exhales the scent of the gera-
mum. or the violet or altar of roses.
The idea is new one, and it is the
invention of Pittsburg genius who
got carte blanche to design the most
luxurious and artistic bathroom in the
United States.

sss1f very unusual way in which he

attended there was a strict rule against
marking the desks. Any boy discov-
cred mutilating desk must be pun

tween paying five dollars or taking a
public whipping. The Irresistible
combination of a shiny-topped desk
and a brand-new knife in his pocket
was too much for Mark; he succumbed
to the temptation and whitfield away
until the teacher caught him. The
punishment was set for the following
day, and Marks father, thinking it a
pity the lad should be publicly
whipped gave him lecture and a five
dollar bill Five dollars looked pretty
big to Mark. He thought 1t over care
