aesthetic value. It should be of such a nature that through participating in it and through love for it one will become more cultured gentleman.
 All of these requirements are ideally met in the most historic of games archery. As to muscular exercise and respiration archery Is fully adequate, and especially so because it can be fol- lowed to old age. AS the muscles strengthen the bow can be adjusted to the increasing strength. AS old age ap- breaches and the muscles begin to tire under the arduous work of the younger man, the bow can again be fitted to the man, while the muscles themselves and the eye need not lose their cunning. 1 Indeed, it is noteworthy fact that many of the leading archers of all times have been men of advanced years. In fact, the fascination of the long bow | seems to grow stronger in the faithful | archer as his years advance, even as Robin Hood. through the lattice of his chamber, shot his last arrow to mark the spot of his grave.
 But to illustrate the nature of the physical exercise which is involved in the pursuit of archery, 1t might be said that in shooting single York round which is seventy-two arrows at one hundred yards, forty-eight arrows at eighty yards, and twenty-four arrows at sixty yards, the archer must walk G,OSO yards if he uses two targets, and l twice that if he has only one target. il he uses bow which pulls forty-five 1 pounds, which is the ordinary weight for men, he has drawn, in all, 6,4S( pounds. This work has been done by 6 1 direct pull across the chest, an exercise which puts all the muscles of the bach and shoulders in most perfect tonus and forces the most perfect respiration In fact, no form of exercise could sur. pass archery for the purpose oi straightening up stopped shoulders anc expanding the collapsed chest ant lungs. Nothing can take the place ol archery for the man who is confined over desk to his daily work.
 But there are other important flea. lures of archery from the purely phys 1oal point of view. To make a success. full shot with the bow, one must bring every muscle of the body under mos perfect control and into most perfec coordination with the eye. This factol Itself is of important educational sig nif1cance--the factor of self-control a a trying moment. When the bow is full drawn, every muscle must ba in tn, highest tension, the body in absolut, equilibrium, the bow held as if in { wise, and the point of the arrow on tn, mark. Then the string must bount from the fingers without a waver oI jerk. These are only some of the ele
 ments of archery, and there is a life 1 time of study in them.-Dr. George E Coghill in Recreation.

OF OoURsE.

When that asphalt company an- nounced that on July all the girls and l women employed by 1t would have to walk the plank it was immediately seen that there could be no good reason giv- en for such an announcement, The headquarters of the asphalt company are in Chicago, and there are other Icompanies in Chicago which know a thing or two. The head of a great mall order house of that city gives his testi- mony: "Women have made very satis- factory employees in our business" " says MT. Dean, "We employ about twenty-five hundred as clerks and stenographers. They give excellent ser vice. Indeed, we could not get along without them. They are more depend- able. They are more reliable. They work harder. They are conscientious" This isn't all. The Recorder of Cook county, in which the city of Chicago is
 located, employs 12S women, and con siders them superior to men; but he says "the way to make women em- ployes valuable is to segregate them.
 Don't ever put them in competition
 with men or near where men are work
 ing. If you do they either get discour' aged or fall in love"
 Of course getting discouraged or fall- ing in love is bad for business, but per- Ihaps women don't do any more of either than men. We probably shall
 not hear much more about the inferior | ity of the business woman.

4 KANSAS .F4MILY.

Kansas people believe in progress. When the University of Kansas closed it's doors for the summer vacation this week all the members of the family of State Senator c. I. Martin, of Fort Scott, including Mir. Martin himself, were freed from their books. It is somewhat unusual for man of middle age to go to school but it is more so for a man to go and take his family with him, and this Is what Senator Martin did. Senator Martin is a junior in the law department of the university, and his wife is also a student in the law de- partment. Their only child, Miss Lil- Han Martin, attends public school in Lawrence.
 Before becoming a student in the uni versity Mir. Martin was farmland, a country school teacher, major in the army of the Philippines, a clerk of the district court of Bourbon county and Is at present State senator from that county. Deciding that a knowledge of the law would be of benefit to him, he went to Lawrence and entered the uni versity, and his fellow students quickly made him president of the class. He was also president of the Republican club of the university. Senator Martin found time, in addition to all his other duties, to take an active part in every phase of college life, and enters into the spirit of the university with as much zeal as the youngest freshman.
 Success to this family. They deserve 1t, and seem likely to get 1t.

NOT 4 GOOD BILL.

Eternal vigilance is the price of many things besides liberty, as those who are on the watch for bad bills in congress know. Representative Crumpacker of Indiana has introduced bill to take away the power now vested in the fraud order of the Postoffice depart ment and to bring every case brought under such an order into the courts for jury trial
 There doesn't seem to be any good reason for this bill, and there are good reasons against it. Under the present system, when a fraudulent concern comes to the notice of the postal au- thorities an investigation is made, and if the concern Is found to be a swindle a fraud order is issued cutting off it's mail. Deprived of the means of catch ing suckers, the concern goes out of business. This fraud order does not take away from anybody his constitu- tlonal rights. If it is improperly brought recourse can be had to the courts or an injunction may be obtain- ed. In the last two years only four teen such orders were contested, in each without success.
 The fraud order system has been a great protection to foolish and con- flding public. Why should it be chang ed so that the frauds can have more time to do their swindling in9

WOMEN.

Mrs. Williamina Patton Fleming, cur ator of photographs at Harvard ob- servatory, has been elected an honora- ry member of the Royal Astronomical Society, and is therefore the first American woman, to receive such dis tinction in the world of astronomy.

 Mrs. Fleming has occupied an impor- tant position in the Harvard observa- The Dr. Henry Draper fund, estab- lished in 1886 by the widow, Mrs. Anna Palmer Draper of New York, made possible the elaborate work of photo graphing the constellations, and Mrs Fleming, at the head of this depart ment, has achieved msgniflcen results. One of Mrs. Flening's valuable contri- buttons to the field of astronomy is the Draper catalogue, which contains a classification of 10000 stars, showing the position and brightness of each. Of the ninety-eight fifth type stars which are known to the astronimical world Mrs, Fleming discovered all but fifteen Since 1887 there have been eleven new stars discovered, and of this number the location of eight stands to the credit of Mrs Fleming. The corporation of Harvard, recognizing the signal ability of Mrs. Fleming, ap- pointed her an officer of the college Q few years ago.

In the choice of a mans recreation one should choose that which not only gives him sufficient muscula1s exercise and full respiration, but which win give him, also as large an amount of pleas ure as possible; for the pleasurabe- ness of an exercice is one test of it's value. During his period of recreation 8 mans care and worry should be com pletely submerged by the gush of youthful enthusiasm. Only under these conditions does physical exercise yield even its full physical value. But there should be more than the physical con sideration entering into the matter of recreation.
