Iwo Men, Lost on the Desert, Make
Dreadful Discovery.

Dreadful Discovery.
1t was the desert of Sahara, says the
New York Journal.
All day long the torrid sun had
flashed down his binding rays upon the
yellow sands till they seemed to gleanl
with the terrible heat AS far as the
eve could reach there was no sign OF
vegetation, nothing but sand, sand,
sand, till the vision grew weary. IL
the sky, like specks of blackness, vul-
lures hung suspended, circling around
and around while they scanned the
plain for some new victim of the heat
for another man or animal whose de-
caying flesh might satisfy their loath-
some appetites. Ever and anon. too,
as one proceeded could be seen the
bones of those who had gone before
bleached white by the awful heat.
And in the midst of the stiffness, the
desolation and the heat. two wayfarers
were wandering on. Their hands were
empty, for their provisions were long
exhausted and they had long since
thrown aside their guns as useless in
cumbrances.
On and on they trudged. maddenc'
hv their terrible hunger and thirst,
y'hen sudderl. they perceived mass o.
rock which rocc directly in their path.
There was a natural opening. Through
it they rushed.
"Water!"
A horrible cry of loathing and disap-
pointment-a cry with no trace of
hope or care for the future-rang
through the rocky garden.
Then the two tramps fled.

flushing of the pipes, which caused the
economic measure proposed by the Commits
soners, is most sanitary. The trifilng waste
of water keeps the pipes pure and the saw
ing of a few drops might cause an epidemic.
The sanitary part of the question should
require serious thought. If additional rev.
enue be required it should not be raised
at the expense of local taxpayers, who are
already overburdened in that respect. 1t is
well known that most of the water supply
is used by the government, and that the
Potomac has water to waste. Then why
squeeze the public?

at Assent ly's Church,

Rev. w. c. Alexander. pastor of the West
Street Presbyterian Church, was the preach
er last night at the opening meeting Of the
second week of evangelistic services at the
Assembly's Church, corner of Fifth and I
streets, under the auspices of the Washing
ton presbytery. Dr. Alexander preached
from the text: Behold I stand at the door
and knock"
In the course of his remarks he said
'',There is too much preaching to the mind
these days and not enough of the more eff
fective method of preaching to the
heart. While 1 believe that the head
ought to give it's assent to religion,
1t is an assent which should follow
the hearts acceptance. 1t seems to me that
we are having too much of mind religion
and not enough of the true type, of which
the heart is the source and the center
We are so accustomed to doing things by
rule and according to fixed customs and
prescribed habits that l fear we are losing

his new party capacity.
Mr. New in expressing his high apprecia-
ton of the honor which had been conferred
on him, said it came 70 him entirely unso-
licited. and for this reason was the more
highly regarded. Not until yesterday had
he spoken to Mr. Cortelyou in regard to the

who had asked him whether they should
press his name for the place, he had an

Good Exercise for Women.
Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
It is the privilege and duty of every wo-
man to make herself as beautiful and at
tractive as possible. To accomplish this
result it is not necessary for women to
ioin any of the numerous organizations that
incumber the earth For physical improve
ment it is not even necessary to join an
athletic club.
To get the best kind of exercise women
need no gymnasium, no special apparatus,
no patent fixtures.
Ordinary household duties afford the
most varied and beneficial exercise. Wo-
man needs no instruction from the physical
culture magazines. The woman who does
her own housework or helps the servants,
will get al the exercise necessary for health
and beauty.
The hands will be beautifully developed
by the exercise of making bread. Beating
biscuit is an exercise that causes just the
correct curve of shoulder and arm. Be
sides. good cook is the greatest benefac-
tor of the human race. Working the sew
ing machine developes the gastric nerves
as well as the brachialis anticus Import
ant muscles are kept in the pink of condi-
ton by the exercise of scrubbing the floor.
Sweeping and busting are exercises that
beautify all of the muscles of the body.
Spanking children improves the circu-
Iation of the blood and brings the glow of
health to the cheeks of spanker and
spankee.
For the woman herself, and for her
neighbors, beating the carpet is more ben
eficial than tickling the worries of the grand
piano. The gentle exercise of peeling po-
tatoes will do wonders for the complexion.
In fact, the exercise of every household
duty has its compromising advantage in
beautifying the domestic woman.
In spite of these facts. many women en-
