MAKES THE BATH BENEFICIAL
Iong-Headed Young Woman Has Ideas
Of Her Own as to the Needed
Additions.

One athletic young woman INDUCES
frequently in what she calls her home
made Turkish bath" 1t is a fact. as
she says. that one cannot always
cleanse the skin thoroughly with only
soap and water and comparatively
smooth cloth. A cold-cream bath on
the face will prove that. Therefore
she takes small scrub brush, of the
sort sometimes sold in drug stores for
nail brushes, and, first wetting the
body with sponge and hot water,
scrubs the whole surface of the skin
with the brush and thick soap lather
This goes down into the pores and
cleanses them, carries on more old
skin and particles of dust and waste
than the. ordinary wash cloth, and
stimulates the circulation. The soap
Is next thoroughly rinsed off with hot
water, and the bath followed by a
cold shower and a brisk rub. For the
not too vigorous person, slight rest
adds to the beneficial effect. but,
whether with or without the conclud-
ing soap, the treatment will be found
both refreshing and invigorating.

THE TWO SIDES OF. HISTORY.
Some Pertinent Observations Made by
Writer Evidently Not Fond Of
Subject.

History is running account of how
King Somebody-or-other either did or
did not get to certain place, which
nobody ever heard of, before King
Somebody-else got there, from which
we are usually supposed to conclude
that 1t would have made quite a differ
ence whether he did not not.
Like nearly everything else, history
has two sides. The history of the
Garden OF Eden depends upon wheth-
er 1t is related by man or q wom-
an. The history of the American rev.
olution reads quite different in Eng.
hsh books from the way it reads in
our own books. The history of the
civil war depends upon which side OF
the Mason and Dixon line you happen
to be sitting when you write it.
History is a bore, not only because
you are unacquainted with the people
who figure in it, but because it repeats
itself.-Life.

SENATOR FROM UTAH
Reed Smoot One of the Husuers
of Congress.
How He Fought to Retain Seat In
Upper House-Has Won Honors
In That Body by Hard, Con-
sIstent and Careful Work.

Washington.-It Is long stride
from lighting against big odds to re-
tain seat in the United States sem
ate to place In its highest councils,
but 1t is one which has been taken by
Senator Reed Smoot of Utah in one
term. Even before Senator Smoot
had taken his seat. the storm of pro-
test against his retaining 1t had be-
gun to swell In eastern states, and
when he took the oath of office its
clouds hung SO threatenilgly that they
would have frightened less daring
fighter. Because Senator Smoot be-
longed to the hierarchy of the Nor
mon church thousands petitioned
against his retaining the honor to
which he had been without question
legally elected by the Utah legisla-
ture. This is history. What Senator
Smoot has done since his right to sit
in the senate was confirmed is an
other matter.
1t was three sessions before the
storm of criticism of the new Utah
senator had subsidized and the senate
committee on privileges and elections
reported in favor of permitting him to
retain his seat. Then, as if he had
been storing up energy during the two
previous years, Mr.. Smoot launched
into his work as a senator like a
dynamo.
Those who worked with him and
tried to maintain his pace soon
dropped by the wayside. and left this

Sailing a Diamond Mine.

Howard Dubois, the noted mining
engineer, told a good story to the
Tech men recently, illustrating the
art Of sailing diamond mine. The
story was told of a man in South
Africa who, while walking one day
over his property. suggested that they
assay some of the soil.
In the search that ensued eight
rough diamonds were found and offers
began to fly through the air at rapid
rate for the land, when the hosts wife
called out to her husband: why,
John, where are the other two?" The
sequel OF the story was left to the
maginatior.-Boston Record.

A nice little embroidery bag is
made of cretonne covered with two
embroidery hoops. and finished at the
ends with cardboard covered with
cretonne just the size Of the hoops. In
other words, the bag is built like a

This opening is held together by lac

The bag is carried by ribbon loops,

tall, quiet man of few words and
much energy plodding steadily on
ward. During all the time that his
right to sit in the senate had been
questioned Senator Smoot had not lift
ed his voice except to vote. Now the
senate found that it had good de-
batter Mr.. Smoot profited by his
silence. and the opening of his fourth
session found him well located on the
Republican side and active.
On March a, 1909, Senator Smoot
began his second term. Opposition to
him because of his close connection
with the Mormon church had disap-
peared Those who had taken a care
full look into his life found that his
beliefs did not intrude themselves
upon the daily lives of others, and
come to know him as an ordinary
American citizen, with plenty of west
ern snap and energy. Those who had
come into contact with him in debate
knew that it was not wise to precipi-
tate unnecessarily an encounter with
him on the senate floor.
Many of those who signed petitions
to congress asking that Reed Smoot
be ousted from the senate took it for
granted that he had more than one
wife. No one understands this preju-
dice better than Senator Smoot him

making a trip through the west. They
stopped at Salt Lake City and ran

return they were invited to visit Sena-
tor Smoot's home, at Provost City.
