PRIVATE HYGIENE
What II Means to The Individual and
10 the Eacn.

What Il Means 70 The Individual and
10 the Race.
Private hygiene is important and
means a revolution in our habits Of
living. II means fresh air perpetuaHy
lowing through our houses ana more
Of our lives spent outdoors. It means
common sense in diet-the avoidance
Of boiling food, from which dyspepsia
springs, and the re-educatlon Of nor
NAL food instincts, the avoidance OF
gluttony on the one side and body star
walton on the other. the avoidance Of
alcohol, the most potent Of the pre-
disposing causes Of tuberculosis. and
the avoidance OF dirty, infected milk
and meat It means the simple life,
free from overexertion on the one
hand and Incidence on the other, the
habit Of normal sleep and the eman-
cipation from worry.
In giving this prescription DR. Tru.
deau once said to me. 1T is as simple
al bathing in the waters Of Jordan,
and that Is why people are SO slow to
follow IT."

7 Medieval Methods Of Concealrenk IN
Baron Rothsehld's House.
Thanks to the courtesy Of Baron
Edouard de Rothschild, recently as.
sisted at a trial Of the most extraor.
binary system Of protecting treasures
that has ever been invented.
On the corner Of the Rue BaIzac and
the Rue Faubourg st. Honore stands
gorgeous mansion, one Of the most
magnificent in Paris. surrounded By
beautiful gardens. The mansion may
be described as a house within
house. Ia the inner house Honore ia
Balzac, the father OF realistic romance,
killed himself by overwork at the aga
Of ffty-one. Here the worlds greatest
novelist wrote ia Coincide HUI
maine,T and here he thundered forth
to his friends that there were three
men only ia Paris who knew the lam
guage Hugo. Gautier and MYSELF
Around this historic house the Roth
schiids have really built another and
have. moreover, made gardens such as
are seen In no other city save Paris.
All are surrounded by a very high
wall, which completely shuts Off the
view.
In this house are collected the price
less treasures OF the Rothschilds--
jewels, plate. art treasures OF all kinds,
And they are So arranged that by
touching spring they vanish as il By
magic.
The rooms are lined with false walls,
which rotate On pivots til such way
that they close up and leave no trace
whatever of any method Of movement.
The machinery is very elaborate and is
kept constantly in order.
Only twice has Baron RothschfId CIV
en- an exhibition OF the working Of
these wonderful walls to his astonish-
ed guests. All is 50 arranged that at a
given signal the machinery is put ia
motion, and treasures worth billions
are shut up within walls which ap-
parently are an immoYabIe part Of the
house
Even more remarkable. the family
also can be made to disappear, SO that
the premises look as though they were
absolutely deserted The idea is that
IL revolt broke out this house would
very likely be one Of the first to be-
attacked. At this instant Of danger
the machine would be sprung. and the
rioters should be a considerable time
in possession before they could ana
the treasures, il they found them at
all. Meanwhile the authorities wouid

London, Aug. 16.--While tho imperial

the colonies readily agreed to pay a fair

colonial delegates, however, persistently
pictured Japan as a rival who might
some day become possessed Of a desire
for nose territory. They therefore,
while agreeing 20 contribute 70 the
