On the other hand, D. Scharlieb re- cogniZes that excessive athletics have done much to injure health and impair constitutions. Doctors and schoolmis tresses have observed that an excessive devotion to athletic sport and gymnas- tics tends to produce what may be called the neuter girl" She resem- bles mostly an overgrown lad in figure. and is less fitted for her normal life and career than her more feminine sisters.
 ''I do not wish to be misunderstood Undoubtedly proper use of physical exercise tends to the improvement of the body and the mind. It is only ex- cessive and injudicious abuse that is followed by these disastrous conse- quences"
 Here, then, is clear argument for the equality of the sexes in this matter at all events. Training for the male is a process of development--overtr ing leaves him stale and enfeebled Physical culture for growing girls should be undertaken by the light of this fact, realizing that a good thing carried to excess may become a posi- tive evil.

FAIRBANKS QUESTIONS
 CRoSSLEY'S DECISION

According to late Fairbanks newspa- deal of dissatisfaction expressed over District Attorney Crosslev's interpre- tation of the law relating to the sale of liquors under saloon license, the district attorney holding that liquors purchased in a saloon must be con sumed where purchased. The Fair banks NewsMiner caustically reviews Mir Crossley's decision. "The reason ing Of District Attorney Crossley sim ply passes all human understanding" says the News Miner It proceeds:
 According to the District Attorneys interpretation of the law, no wholesaler can sell liquor in a smaller quantity must not be drunk on the premises According to his ruling. retail license dealer cannot sell in more than Ave gallon lots. but all he sells must be consumed on the premises. It Is against the law for a saIoonkeeper to sell a bottle of beer to be taken out of the house, and the district attorney threatens to prosecute the perpetrator of every such sale Tn other words, he indicates that the only legal way in which man can purchase a bottle of beer and take 1t home with him for the good of the family Is to first per- suade some reputable physician to per lure himself and with the order which Is the result thereof buy your bottle at the drug store. as they do where prohibition reigns in Iowa.
 'That is not the worst of 1.-the dis trict attorney. after seeing his first such case defeated by a jury. declares that he will prosecute every repeti- ton of the crime. That Is the feature of our district attorney which we have always contended makes him a menace to the conduct of law and justice in Tanana-he cannot be convinced that his failure to secure convictions Is his own fault, and his pursuit of imagin- ary duty becomes nothing less than persecution. It would be an absolute impossibiiitiy for the district attorney to obtain jury in Alaska which would convict a retail saloon man of selling a bottle of beer to be taken or the premises. yet the district attorney an- nonnces that he will bring case after case. causing loss of money and time to the individual and the government, but he will make this impossible drug store idea of his stand up in Alaska. There isn't an hour of the day but that men with bar room licenses sell liquor to be taken off the premises. and there never will be. so the extent to which the district attorneys persecution may go has no limits.
 Tt is very evident that when the laws governing Alaska and her people were framed the framers did not know that our district attorney would ever be sent here to enforce them upon this district. He can take any of those laws and make a dunee's cap of a law of it fin any idle moment. and while his interpretation Of the law may not obtain a conviction. his persistent stumbling down the blind trail in the reach for a stray conviction works a hardship upon the whole community, the government which he represents. is
 
 an injustice of justice. and a serious reflection upon the attorney general of the United States"

 Pure Soul in Strong Body.
 Physical training is more necessary Tor women than for men, because a man has no calls upon his physique other than those incidental to his work Physical training means for women more good work, less physical break down, less misery, less insanity, and less pauperism.

The ideal of brotherhood has gath

1t is the social conscience, said the
ltev. DR.. Knight, tina must solve the

Inc weaker brother must be regarded.
The presence Of the negro a~ggravates

or employer and employed. The old
conception of the employers duties has
passed away, and now it is generally
recognized BY employers that they must
provide for the safety OF the lives of
their employees. Such a catastrophe
as that in New York some DAYS ago
duickens the conscience OF employers
and makes for better conditions.
Service is another lesson which has
pecn realized through the development
or social conscience. Now even tho
rich feel that their lot is not TO be idle
and cease from labor, but to help carry
the burden and solve the problems OF
the poor and :hc unfortunate. Rich
men have changed their feelings about
tic great mass Of society and their
duty IN regard 10 it, and arc lending a
ha1id to the needy. In tho last two
the sense OF social conscience
has greatly increased. Philanthropic
organizations have sprung up ana arc

years ago. There is yet much 10 be

humanity, a revolution would take

So, in many ways. the Rev. Or.

social conscience is expanding might

religion is the impclling cause. driv-
