Just Like a Vacation.

An eminent English physician
stands authority for the statement
that If any one will spend twenty-four
hours continuously in bed he will Sc.
cure the equivalent, in health giving
results, of weeks vacation of the
ordinary kind.
Those unfortunately so situated that
they will be unable to take a vaca,
tion can try the remedy. Almost
everyone has one full day in the week
which he can make a day of absolute
rest, should he choose. But the ma
jority of those who are In position
to take vacations will doubtless con,
tinue to do SO. and they will do well
thereby.
There is something more In va
cation than a mere resting of the tired
muscles and mind from the strain oi
daily labor. The great advantage Is
that It affords relatively long break
in the monotony Of daily life.

Thicker Than Water.

Rather significant was the celebra
tion of the Fourth of July in Homo
lulu, with two British cruisers to par
ticipate in the exercises and with
British officers in attendance upon an
official public reception of Independ
ence day.
This is strongly indicative of the
brotherly feeling existing between the
two countries. of the oft-quoted senti
ment that blood is thicker than wa
ter" and Of the kinship of the Eng,
disappearing people.
The mingling of the British army
and navy officials with the Americans
in celebration of the anniversary OF
this country's independence is sug
gestive of the old soldiers reunions
in which veterans of the Union and
Confederate armies fraternize and
march together in procession and are
brothers under the skies who have for.
gotten any past differences that es.
tranged them for a time-San An.

When Sleepinu.

1t is we'll to sleep from infancy with
the head uncovered, as the hair thus
retains its beauty longer On retir
ing the hair should be raised high
above the ears. without pulling. plait
ed loosely in a single braid and tied
with a silk or cotton ribbon. Avoid
wearing starched nightcaps, as the
starch is injurious to the hair. When
old age approaches 1t may be well
to wear nightcaps.
Brush the hair we'll, using soft
brush, on going to bed and in the
morning. The best brushes are made
with short bristles. If the hair IL
combed from the roots downward
without being divided in several parts
much harm may be done to 1t. The
hairs would certainly be broken off
become uneven and could never be
made to look cared for. 1t is an excel
lent thing to smooth the hair with the

Lyceum Theatre.
AT THE MERCY OF TIBERIUs.

"At the Mercy of Tiberius," is a
book play like est. Elmo" In fact,
they might be called sister plays for
the reason that Augusta Evans Will
son wrote both the books from which
plays were dramatized.
The story of "At the Mercy of
Tiberius" concerns "Beryl Brentano"
Miss Eleanor MontelD who leaves
her home in New York city to seek
aid for her mother from her mothers
father, old General Luke Darlington,
of Elm Bluff, Virginia. The old
man was estranged from his daught-
er through her marrying against his
wishes. Beryl calls on her grand
father, but he is adament against
her pleadings, but finally gives her
sum of money and a casket OF
jewels-the jewels rightly belong
ing to Berryl's mother.
Shortly after leaving the old gen
eral, he is found dead, and Beryl is
arrested charged with the crime.
LennoX Dunbar, the prosecuting at
torney falls deeply in love with the
fair prisoner and he is torn between
his love for her and his duty to the
state. This role is excellently played
by John Webb Dillon and he gives
vivid portrayal of the dashing
Virginian.
The play is in four acts, the first
showing the home of the Brentanos
in New York city, the second show
ing the Library in Elm Bluff, Virgil
mia, the third-the living room of
Helen Singleton, in the county Jail
and the last showing the Mission OF
All Saints, in the picturesque noun
tain district of Alberta, Canada.
The company that surrounds Miss
Montell is one of unusual excellence
and Vaughan Glaser has certainly
staged the entire production regard
less of expense. At the Lyceum
Theater for a four days engage
ment, starting with next Sundays
matinee and including special holi-
day matinee Labor Day and also a
25c matinee Tuesday.

the only noticeable shortcoming vas
to be found. A careful count of The

one missing. The brood had Matched
out some time before just 13 little
chicks, and they had safely reached
the point where the colonel's mouth
watered in anticipation of their i'm

careful counts demonstrated beyond
all question that their number had
been reduced by one. Twelve broilers

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER I, 1911.

A prominent Ohio Judge has re-
Gently said that as many divorces are
sought by women as by men, explains
the cause as being due to the lnde'
pendence of women, claiming that so
many girls have been accustomed to
earning their own living before mar
riape that in case the husband will
not provide the wife with what she
needs, she prefers the old way and
goes back to single blessedness and
Independence, rather than be subject
ed to the neglect caused by the In
difference of selfish husband. This
Judge suggests that women are not
sufficiently dependent upon their
husbands for support and protection
because they know how to earn llv'
ing for themselves, and while his
homer seems to deplore this fact, we
feel like applauding the woman who
by reason of her intelligence, ambl'
tion and ability is not afraid OF the
world, and is willing to go it alone, ii
need be, rather than have her very
soul crushed by self-loving man in
order that she may have some one
provide her with home,

When Genius Becomes insanity.

Where my eugenic friend goes
wrong Is in failing to realize that a
great many of the maladies which he
calls degeneracy are just too much of
the highly developed nervous system
which is the special endowment OF the
gifted families, writes ]. A. Spangler
in Westminster Gazette.
Overcharge the battery ever so lit
tie and genius becomes insanity; give
one member of the family volt too
much and the delicate balance of phys
lcal and mental qualities on which
sanity depends Is broken down. Ex-
tinguish the family and you will rid
the world of some degeneration, but
you will also and at the same time
rob it of some of its most gifted
men.
The doctrine of heredity should
never be forgotten by parents or re-
membered by children. To the first
it is the assertion of their responsible
ity; to the second reminder of their
helplessness.
