A remarkable change has occurred in
the character of religious work in the
past few years. Religion has apparent

their souls. The tactics Of wise and

Of simultaneous body and soul help.
Notable it is, too, that from the begin
ming women Salvationists have had In
that organization precisely the same
rights as men, even sharing with them
the highest offices. That is undoubt-
edly the reason the Salvation Army has
gained such power and influence.
What women can do in the new socio-

Abolishins Round Shoulders.

A common Disagreement is round
shoulders, with the accompanying hol-
low chest. A woman simply let's the
muscles OF her chest slide down in
front upon her stomach, making no
persistent effort to sit and stand braced
up as a lady should. The results are
three-round shoulders, a hollow chest
and a large stomach. The tendency
to unsightly and ruinous slumping
must be taken heroically in hand. To
begin, let the round shouldered girl
sleep without pillows. If she has ac-
quired the very bad habit Of sleeping
half in a sitting posture, let her take
the props away, one at a time gradual
" lowering the head till she can lie
upon the bed comfortably with her
whole body stretched fat, or, if she
must have pillow, let it be a hair one,
thin and fat. Feather pillows are
heating and bad to bury the face and
hair in.
An admirable exercise for filling out
the chest and hattening the back is
this: Stand erect weight poised upon
the front Of the foot. Extend your
arms in front of you, as in the picture,
palms together. Next, rise upon your
toes, take deep, slow. full breath. Ex-
hale this breath slowly, and as you
do so bring your arms up over the
head and down behind your back. The

The Russian ships were met outside

with his flagship, the battleship ONO,

The American squadron then accom-

Admiral Enquist will not be permitted
to repair his ships at Manila. This gov
eminent has decided that as the damage
to the vessels was not caused either by
the sea or by storm it will be obliged
to refuse permission for the vessels to
be repaired. Accordingly Secretary Taft
cabled the following instructions to Gov
Wright at Manila regarding the ships:
"Time cannot be given for the repair
of the injuries received in battle. There
fore the vessels cannot be repaired unless
interned until the end of hostilities.

TOURIST CROP PAYS,
California Had Fifty Thousand Wis.,
itors During Past Season.

The greatest tourist season in the his
tory OF California is just closing. 1t
yielded $1S,OOO,00O to California and
millions more to the railroads, and the
seed has been sown for a bigger crop
next year. Forty thousand tourists Wis
tied California this season. They stayed
on an average of fifty days each and
spent an average of more than Sc a day.
Within decade the tourist business"
OF California has grown to an industry
OF considerable proportions and it is
jumping ahead each year at a remarka-
bic rate. Last season 80 200 tourists Wis
tied the State and it is estimated that
last seasons tourists spent at least S1O,-
/, 100000.
Over three-fourths of the tourists to
California travel a distance of over 1000
miles to reach the Golden State. They
probably spend for railroad fares alone
$12O apiece, SO that from those who
come from Chicago or farther east the
railroads receive in the neighborhood of
$4,5OO00O, and the fares of those from
west of Chicago total more than an adj
ditional $1,OOO,OOO
Then there is sleeping car fare. S14
each way from Chicago, or a total of S2S
each for 1880 persons, or over $1,000
600 for berths. Meals at a conservative
estimate will probably amount to $780,
600 more. Altogether the $4,000 tourists
spend in excess of $1O,OOO,0O0 in travel
Ing. and this is an exceedingly conserva-
tive estimate, as the average tourist to
California probably spends more than
5000 on the item of travel.
Of the $18,OOO0OO expended by tour
lists during the season just passed $14,-
100000 was left in southern California,
and but 100000 around San Fran
cisco.

MuTlNY IN THE BATTLE.
NeboHatoff Ia Thrown Overheard or
Bound in His Cabin.

Details from a trustworthy source
leave little room for doubt, says a dis
patch from st. Petersburg, that Admiral
Nebogatoff's sailors mutinied in the bat
tie of the Sea of Japan and either threw
the admiral and many officers overheard
or, according to another version, bound
them in their cabins and hoisted the
white flag. Eight men in Nebogatoff's
squadron were, it is again asserted, hang
ed for mutiny while still in the Red
sea.
A remarkable story is in circulation
concerning the wounded on the Orel. 1t
is said that at the opening Of the fight
800 men were killed and wounded, and
that the groans and shrieks Of the
wounded exercised so harmful an effect
that it was decided to throw the mortally
wounded into the sea.
One hundred and forty, it is said, were
thrown overheard. Those slightly wound
ed were then fastened to the mast to
prevent their interference with the fight
ing of the ship.
