Origin of Halloween.

Halloween IS the name popularity given
to the eve or vigil Of All HaIlows. or fes-
tival OF All Saints, which, falling on No
vember /, makes Halloween the evening
before or October 81. Throughout the
land il has always been an occasion for
young peoples parties and Invitations 10
many such gatherings will be sent broad
cast IN this city. Outside Of the usual
street frolics there are many interesting
ways in which the occasion can be cele-
brated, these customs having been handed
down from generation 10 generation, until
to-day they are just as popular as they
were in we olden time"
RIIt the girls, too, will meet with seri-
ouss drawbacks in their games. Even
Halloween is not sacred from those just

sters, the trusts. For, even the divinity
that doth hedge a holiday has failed this
year to protect the wares for Halloween
from the encroachment Of bigger prices

All the beautiful mystical processes by

air bath. Many are too delicate to
take it before open windows, or even
to endure one of average length with
windows closed. The air bath is rec
commended as a cure for chronic sleep
1essness. In treating this complaint
the bath should last a very short time
if the weather is cold. and a good rub
bing is preferable to more violent ex-
ercises, which IL themselves are more
rousing than mere exposure to the air

usual for the sun bath to be followed
by headache or feeling of languor;
such symptoms indicate that the bath
must not be prolonged. This is often
the case with patients who do not per-
spire, and for that very reason, when
things are so. there must be no hesita-
ton about inducing perspiration by
means of the blanket wrapping.
AS regards light baths, the author
says: 1t is to be regretted that these
baths have been called nude baths.
Except in the case of a few fanatics
this is anything but a true description
of them. Any light permeabIe gar
ment can be used for outdoor light
bathing. Walking barefoot is one form

bath, by virtue of the equilibrium of
temperature is continually drawing off
heat. To reproduce it the body reacts,
both heart and lungs at once acceler-
ate their motion, and every function
of the body acquires increased activ-
ity, and thus in turn increases oxida-
ton, corresponding to the amount of
vital energy the subject possesses.
Taking the night bath is simply being
unclothed accompanied with active
movement and rubbing to keep up the
circulation. This form of air bath
should be taken in front of an open
window where possible. Simple as it
is, the advice of the physician is more

of an air bath locally applied, and it
is said to afford great relief in the
case of headaches. Light bathing can
be practiced within doors. In such a
case the light bath should be taken in
as large a room as possible, where the
patient can move about and practice
gymnastics, and where there is plen-
ty of light, air and sunshine. This
way of bathing is often the best for
invalids who have begun the air treat
ment in a sanatorium and wish to con-
tinue it at home.
Another form of atmospheric treat
ment is the air bath, which, in its sim
pie expression-i. e., apart from light
is only taken at night. Like cold

used, as this might produce conges-
ton. A beginner should change his
position every two or three minutes,
or even oftener, turning on his right
side, back or face. When two-thirds
of the time for this bath have elapsed.
the patient must wrap himself entirely
in the blanket. The best time for TAX
ing the sun bath is after ten in the
morning or early in the afternoon. In
cloudy weather, the bath must some
times be prolonged a quarter of an
hour, and when sunshine is altogether
lacking the sun bath may be changed
into a light bath. At the commence

WOODEN HORSE DEAL
 NEVER CQNSUMMATED
While It Was Pending 1t Engaged the Whole Municipal Department.

For some time Griggs Carr. the pur- chasing agent of the city, had been talking about buying three horses for the various departments. It is not an easy thing to buy good horses just now and the city wants no other kind. Inquiry was made fin different direc- tions and word reached the purchas- ing agent from many sources of horses that might be bought if the proper inducements were held out to the owners. MT Carr went to see sev- eral of these animals but none of them came up to the municipal standard.
 At last MT. Carr received a message that there was a horse on exhibition at Frank Cavalieri's shop which Mir. Cavalieri thought would do; anyhow it would be. worth the purchasing agents while to look the beast over. MT. Carr went to see about 1t and when he returned to the city hall he was asked if it was up to the requlre- ments He said it was nearly so, though he would look around a little further The entire city hall had be- come impregnated with the horse question. By mutual consent the Jap anese matter had been allowed to go over with leave to bring it up again as soon as the horse business was set tied. There was accordingly much wonderment at the apathy manifested by NIT. Carr about the Cavalieri horse and there was some criticism of the purchasing agent for neglecting to close the deal.
 One by one the attaches of the city stole up to the blacksmith shop to sec the horse until all of them had seen it Those who went last won dered why they had not observed be- fore that those who preceded them had quit talking horse and reverted to the next presidential campaign, the current state of the weather and other topics.
 When they were dragged back to the subject of the Cavalieri horse they merely said that it might do in pinch but when they were pressed fur ther they said that there was nothing pinching at present.
 It turned out that the horse was a wooden horse that is, it had been one of those signs which formerly deco rated the street corners. It was only d perpendicular. longitudinal section of a horse which some one had carried to the shop. blanketed and otherwise prepared for the edification of the city force.

THE ORIGIN OF LINGO.

To the Editor of The Republican: Sir-With reference to MT. K. Sega was statement nat the word "jingoes" may have originated in Jingos. the name of a king of Korea of some two thousand years ago, l beg to say that the word "jingo" c.jingoes" being merely the plural form) has come to us directly from the words of an English music hall song. written in 1877, when trouble with Russia was anticipated. The lines of the song commence:
 We don't want to fight,
 But. by JingO! if we do. We've got the ships, we've got the men
 We've got the money too"
 Webster's dictionary informs us that "jingo" is a corruption of St. Gin goulph. Respectfully,
 BERTRAM MILLAR. It ought perhaps be said that Mir. Sogawa's suggestion was a humorous one. based upon the similarity of sound and orthogmphy between Jingoes and Jingos.

MYSTERIOUS GROWTH
 OF TOWN OF BENSON
A Cowboy and His Horse Killed in the San Pedro by Lightning.

According to a letter from Benson that busy town Is still engaged in wondering about the identity of an addition to its population week ago. The affair was mysterious one. A richly dressed woman was seen to leave the east bound passenger train which passed at Benson about eight o'clock in the evening. She hurried to Walkers drug store, carrying a bundle. She entered the store, leaving the bundle outside. and when she came out she hurried toward the train.
 The bundle had been noticed by several persons as the young woman was carrying it, but no notice was taken of the fact that the woman did not have it when she returned to the train. Soon after the departure of the train. persons in the vicinity of the drug store were attracted by the cry ing of child and 1t was discovered in the bundle. The druggist took pos session of it, intending to keep 1t un- til some arrangement could be made as to its final disposition. He still
