A Mock-Milk Bath.
{ BY Virginia Stanley Lee.)


Whether Anna Held ever bsthed in
milk or lot, is still mystery. You all
remember, Of course, that her press
agent said she did; how he run the
changes in on it; how every pretty
woman in the country envied her; how
every one talked of it; and how front
rows Of the house filed up with people
who wanted 10 see the results OF milk
bathing.
Indeed, Anna Held still looks the
dinpled, milk-bathed young woman
and she still fills houses in spite Of a
not unusual voice, or histrionie ability
She is as sOft-skinned and velvety as
ever, and as plump.
If milk baths were convenient, and
not so outrageously expensive, would
indulge in them. ana guess many Of
yOu would, too. don t doubt but what
some who read this have batheS in

RUSSIA MAY RIVAL AMERICA
Growing Enlightenment and Tree-
dom Promise Great Agricul-
tural Advancement.

Illustrations Of the worlds economic
solidarity are the recent Russian infiu-
ences on the security markets every
where. Russian enlightenment and
freedom promise to make marked I'M
pressions on future American farm
ing. Henry q. Baker says that agricul-
ture now gives employment to STA per
cent. Of Russia's population, but Rus
sian agriculture is now in q terrible con-
dition. The Russian peasant enlight-
ened will prove powerful rival to the
Yankee farmer. The average return per
hectare OF land in Russia is said to be
382 kilos, while the German return ia
1900 kilos. Russia has to use Is per
cent. of her harvest as seed for future
sowing, which is about double what
other nations use. Curiously, even in
the direst times, like during the recent
war and late chaotic conditions, Russia
still makes heavy exports Of wheat.
This doubtless Is because wheat Is one
of the chief quick assets Of the country.
The Russian peasantry have wheat to
export to England when they scarcely
can afford to buy rye bread for their
own hamlets. Their exports Of wheat
will help pay the interest ON their ma.
tion's enormous foreign obligations, but
individually they yield trifling cash re-
turns.

who throng the halls about the capitol,
but they are all of mild type, as the
police watch carefully that no one of
dangerous character gets inside the
big building.
There is one human prodigy who
has been about the capitol for several
congresses who is known to the guides
and employees as 'the Elixir OF Life
Man" He is a venerable specimen,
and carries about with him bottles of
queer-looking, reddish mixture
which he claims, if properly used. will
prolong life. He also asserts that this
same preparation will "cause bursts
of oratory and return Of youth and will
produce winning personality. This
old fellow became SO persistent in an
aoying senators last congress that he
was put cut of the capitol. He is back
again this year, however, and So long
rs he does not annoy anyone he WILL
not be interfered with.
Some of the eccentric characters met
with in the corridors are women. One
of these is national character, and
has been looking after bill in her
own interest for several years. This is
Dr. Mary Walker, who has achieved
national notoriety by her persistency
in dressing in male garments. She
was nurse during the civil war and
now in her old age she wants Uncle
Sam to grant her pension for what
cho din Che 1nolya like a little WeaZ-
ened old man in a rusty black suit
with long skirted coat, a standing col
lar and four-in-hand tie and some
what ancient silk hat on her head.
When things do not go her way she
becomes rather violent and is apt to
give members Of congress a piece OF
her mind.

MARINE ENGINEERS JOB.
The Difficulties Of His Duties Are
Illustrated by Startling
Incident

OF all causes Of boiler deterioration,
says H. p. Watson, in the Engineering
Magazine, by far the most numerous are
those arising from the presence OF
scale and its twin sister, incrustation;
but broken braces can give an engineer
q very bad quarter Of an hour. A steam
er plying on the great lakes many years
ago carried very high steam for those
days-50 pounds per square inch on q
very large and light shell. The engi-
neer on watch was down In the fireroom
looking around when a loud bang came
from one OF the boilers. Instantly
divining the cause he looked question:

piled: Be jabers, l hope that amt

That startled the engineer, for he had
not been told Of the other broken brace;
he at once stopped the blowers, opened
the doors, shut the stop-valve between
boilers, and put on the feed pumps al
rapidly az they could 60 so as to reduce
pressure. The deck department was
notified that 1t would be necessary to

study and the collection of statistics she
has come to the conclusion that the
superauity Of women in SO many European
countries is fact which in the first place
il in no sense an evil, and in the second
place is rapidly disappearing.
In another twenty years, she believes,
the tide will begin to turn the other way
and the men will be in the majority even
in such countries as England and Ger
many, where at the present time women
immensely predominant. Some Of her
statistics are most interesting. In Lux
embonrg, for example, in 1890 there were
1909 women for every 1000 men. There
are now only 900. In Australia the pro-
portion has been reduced in the same time
from i.044 to 1,035, in Hungary from 1,0l5
to 1909, in Switzerland from ,O57 to l,O35,
in Sweden from LOGS to l,049, in Germany
from ;,O4O to l,O32, in England from ,055
to LOAF. She does not believe that any
European nation except Russia will long
continue to increase rapidly in proportion.
England has begun to follow the example
of France and Germany will certainly sol-
low England's footsteps.
In all advanced" European states the
birth rate is either becoming stationary,
or begins to show backward tendency.

the opening day OF congress. He
hailed from New Jersey and had been
regular visitor at the capitol since
soon after the civil war. in which he
served as sailor.
The old guides about the capitol
gave this queer character the sobfiquet
of 'tthe little statue man" because of
his habit Of frequenting Statuary hall
and talking loud and earnestly to the
bronze and marble statues there. He
was small in stature himself, but as
full Of energy as live electric wire.
His favorite statue was that of Rob-
ert Fulton, the inventor Of the steam
boat, who is represented as holding In
his hand a model of his first steamboat,
ON which his gaze has been intently
fixed The little statue man" would
approach the stone Fulton reverently.

statue like this:

This little Jerseyman was also very

hall, and which he always familiarly
addressed as George" He believed
that this statue still breathes the spirit

it: George Washington, in plaster.
has been reincarnated with the pa
triotism of the late George Washing
tor in the flesh and stands in thia hall
as living inspiration to the Ameri-
can people,
Another peculiar character who is
missing was tall strapping individ-
ual known as "the Irish Mexican"
His real name was Murphy, but he had
given it a Mexican twist by comforting
1t into "Murphreerero." He could talk
Spanish fuently, but with an Irish &C
cent. He had an imaginary claim
against Uncle Sam.
