AIRSHIP INTERESTS.
Keen Contests Daily Between Wright
and Curtiss Machines.

San Antonio, Texas, April 13.-
Since the arrival of Glenn Curtiss
with his bi-plane built especially fol
army signal service and reconnoiter
ing, one OF the big features of the
army mobilization here at the flying
machine department, interest being
keen in the contest carried on be-
tween the Wright and Curtiss ma
chimes. The constant try-out of the
flying machines at the military camp
has much of the appearance of an
aviation meet. The recent flight of
the Wright machine or 116 miles,
carrying two passengers, and the re-
markable work in carrying a mes
sage from General Carriers head
quarters to the maneuver grounds at
Leon Springs, going around the
north end at IA range out of firing
distance from the supposed army
that lay between General Carters
command and reinforcements at Le-
on Springs, has stimulated the Cur
tiss people to make an unusual effort
in demonstrating that this air craft
Is quite as useful as a Wright ma
chine. Both Curtiss and those in
charge of the Wright Machine ap-
pear to give little attention to at
mospheric conditions but make flights
in all kinds OF weather regardless
of the speed of the wind. A gale of
thirty-five or forty miles an hour has
no terrors to either of them, and
they tempt the choppy winds of the
Texas plains and do all kinds of air
maneuvers under almost any condi-
tions. At present, the flying machine
is the big card at the army camp
and those manipulating them are
demonstrating to Uncle Sam that
these air craft will not only be USE
ful in the signal service and for
scouting duties, but can do effective
work in the matter of landing ex-
plosives where they will do the
greatest damage to an opposing
army. While it has been asserted that
field pieces have been invented which
can put flying machine out of
service, both the Wright and Curtiss
avi1tors maintain that they can go
at such a high altitude and at such
rapid speed that it will be next to
impossible for gun: stationed on the
ground to do them any harm. 1t is
understood that a demonstration of
one flying machine opening fire on
snother while in flight will be made
IN the near uture and that a real
tettle in the air will take place.

 First of all comes the out-of-door exercise for all the faults of face and form. Try walking two or three miles every day. Oh, you can get the time, my dears! Your mothers will see to that, for every mother-bless her dear heart!-will sacrifice much in the way of her daughters help about the house to give her the needed exercise to make her both healthful and beau tiful. But walking is not all that the stoop- op-shouldered, sallow girl needs she must walk with shoulders thrown well back and head erect. Throw out the chin and chest and the rest of the anatomy will take care of it. self.
 On rising, the face and chest and shoulders should be bathed in very cold water, after which a vigorous rubbing with a crash towel should follow. If the towel has been dipped into very heavy salt brine on the previous night, and spread out to dry, it will be all the better, for the salt remaining in the towel will help to tone the skin.
