NIGHT EOBES.
They Were Once Very Gorgeous and
Worn In the Daytime.

They Were Once Very Gorgeous ana
Worn In the Daytime.
In the middle ages night robes, as
general thing, were unknown luxuries.
Under the Tudors royalty and no.
bility had them made of silk or vel
vet, and, as the old books say, "hence
no washing was necessary
A night robe of black satin bound
with black taffeta All e,ged with vel
vet Of tins same 20 was daintlly
fashioned Tor Anne Eolegn.
More lusqrious still was one owned
by Queen Bess. 1t was of black vel
vet, fur lined. and greatly offset by
flowing borders of silk lace. And In
1868 her majesty gave orders that
George Brodigman should deliver
~threescore and six best sable skynnes,
to furnish us night gown" -Four
years later her highness orders the
delivery of twelve yards of purple
velvet, friezed on the back syde, with
white and russell silke," for q night
gown for herself and also orders the
delivery of fourteen yards of murry
damask for the 'makynge of a night
gowne" for some one else.
Night gowns for ladies of later
period were called 'nyght vails." In
Queen Anne's time it was the fashion
to wear them over the customary dress
In the streets in the daytime, when out
on a pleasure walk. And, as was fit
ting, ladies who INDUCED in night
caps had them also made of silk or
velvet, with much pretty ganishing
of lace and glittering cords" and the
fair ones made presentation of costly
caps to each other as tokens of respect
or affection.

The COLD BATH.
Many Men Say They Like 1t, but They
Don't Like 1t.

Don't Like Ii.
In a paper read at a meeting OF an
association for the study OF tubercu-
losis an eminent doctor said that one
of the curious facts connected with the
practice of the cold bath in the morn
ing is that so many of its votaries pos
ltively declare that they enjoy 1T. He
contends that they do not and cannot
enjoy it. The doctor is doubtless right
as far as he goes, but he does not go
far enough He misses the main point,
perhaps the only point worth empha-
sizing.
There is abundant reason to believe
that the most curious fact connected
with the cold bath in the morning Is
that so many people who insist that
they enjoy it do not take it. There Is
vicarious atonement, and there Is also
vicarious bathing, and it is very easy
matter to enjoy a bath that Is not tax
en-, the bath of somebody else. Almost
anybody gifted with a little imagina-
ton can sing the praises of cold bath
in the morning. There are the pleasu-

And it is equally easy to take cold
bath every morning. 1t only remains
to turn on the hot water faucet and
enter the tub. Or both faucets may be
turned on and, without entering the
tub, one may stir the water violently
with his hands, draw long breaths and

Lightning played a strange

just been to the hydrant for a
bucket of water and had retired
to the distance of about sixty feet,
when lightning struck the
hydrant. bursting it to pieces and
uprooting locust tree standing
near. AT about the same time a
cottonwood tree a quarter of a

fire. In fact the electric fluid got
very previous around there and
frightened many people by its
activity. Mrs. Conner is to be

ALASKA ANNOUNCES
ITS FIRST MELONS

Seattle, Sept. 25.-Dawson and Fair
banks are the big civic rivals of the
n~orthland. Both expect to have a great
exhibit in the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific ex-
position here in 1909, and the exhibit OF
each will be assembled with the view
OF showing the world hat 1t surpasses

duced In the vicinity, climate and in
fact every other phase OF nature and
tine OF endeaVor by which men are
wont to Judge a city.
It Is natural the climatic rivalry
should be bitter. Both cities are sit
uated a few miles north of the "a degree
OF north latitude and there is yet a
question as TO which Is the most north
ern.
Each has enjoyed this summer a par
ticular triumph, In the matter of vege-
table growths. About a month ago Gus
Johnson, OF D-Wson, produced several
fine ears OF corn which he announced
had been grow .hn a Dawson garden
and were the first ever grown In the
northland. The Dawson
took this up n demonstrated how
mild q summer climate Dawson had
and how that even delicate southern
corn could be grown there. Fairbanks
gnashed it's teeth with jealousy and
muttered, wait"
Now a month later ii was Fairbanks,
turn to crow. for Paul Rickert, of that
city, q gardener, announced he had in
his garden some fine large watermelons
on the point of %ripening. Next day thev
were sold for fabulous sums, for thew
were undoubtedly the first melons ever
grown in either Alaska or Yukon.

CANCER HELD DUE TO
MEAT BY EXPERT ADAMS

Chicago. sept. 25.-That meat eat
Ing is the prime cause of cancer and
that the increase In cancer In largely
due to the increase In the consumption
OF animal foods are the principal fea-
lures in the report OF w years ex-
haustive research by DR.. q. Cooke
Adams OF London, formerly OF Aus
the department OF health. DR., Adams
says he has proved c~onclusively that
diet plays q most important factor In
the Increase OF the disease and In Its
death rate.
The increase in cancer In Chicago
from 1865 to 1906 was 2S2 per cent: In
1865 one In each 104 deaths was Que to
cancer, and in 1905, II had increased
to one death In every t~wenty-three.
THE results show the increase Is due
to the foreign born Inhabitants as the
Chicago born show the lowest death
rate In the world. DR.. Adams says:
THE cause OF the greatly increased
death rate among the foreign born can
rot be charged to climatic conditions,
for / have found the Illinois born have
about the lowest death rate from can
Ger Of any people In the world, for
many a the average being one
death from cancer in every 400 deaths
among these people, and but one can
Ger death In seventy-two among the
native Chicagoans over 40 years or
age.
"It was found the italians made their
staple diet of macaroni and spaghetti
Itheir national dish), that the Chinese
adhered to their national diet Of rice,
while the nations showing higher NOR
tally consumed large quantities of
canned. preserved, dried picked
meats, sausages. ETC., often eaten un-
cooked.
: ''WhiIe these preserved meat fools
are eaten to a certain extent In thEir
own countries, the higher wages OF
Americans permit indulgence In them
TO q greater extent, while the greater
cost OF fresh meat Is an added induce
ment to the consumption OF these ar
ticles.
ut was found also that the bulk OF
the fresh meat prepared at the plant
of q slaughtering company, where stock
condemned ante-mortem by overn
ment, state and city inspectors is
slaughtered, Is eaten by the poor.
About 81 per cent. Of stock held for

moved, Is finally passed upon and en-
ters the market. either as fresh meat or

There cannot be the slightest Ques-
ton but that the great Increase In can
Ger among the foreign born. " the
prevalence Of that disease in their ma
tive countries, Is due to the increasing
consumption Of animal foods, partic-
ularly those derived from diseased ani-
