A DAILY BATH FOR THE YOUNG BABY IS
OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE.
the belief that away back in dim an
tiquity our ancestors were quite as
we'll adapted to water as we now are
to land.
The practical application of the above
reflections is that bathing has a wide
range Of usefulness aside from it's
cleansing effect. Every self respecting
American citizen desires to be clean
and will battle for that purpose more
or less frequently, but the mistake
should not be made of looking upon
the bath simply as a cleansing proc
ess. Possibly for the reasons suggest
ed above the mere contact with water
stimulates and invigorates the body
entirely apart from the influence of
temperature and the removal Of dirt.
Warm water and pure soap are con-
, sidered the essentials for cleansing
bath, but cold bath. followed by Wig
orous rubbing. will accomplish all that
is really necessary for cleanliness.
Dangers of Warm Bathing.
The vast amount of supposed dirt
removed by the Turkish bath is most
| ly epithelial scales from the various
| layers of skin. To remove an excessive
amount of this scarf skin may impair
it's protective qualities: hence the ad-
visibility of not taking the Turkish or
Russian bath oftener than once a
week. However, the warm bath gives
a greater feeling of confidence in ones
cleanliness than the cold bath and is
doubtless beneficial if not employed
| too often and to the exclusion of the
more valuable and tonic cold bath.
| 1t is a good plan to spray or sponge
| the neck and chest with cold water
| after finishing the warm. cleansing
bath. This precaution should always
be taken by those who rely solely on
the warm bath. especially if they
battle every day; otherwise undue sus-
ceptibility to colds may develop. AS
| rule, the warm bath should be taken
i'll the evening.
Most people who have employed the
cold shower or plunge will testify to
it's delightful and invigorating effects.
but there is no reason why it should
be forced upon delicate children or
feeble adults.
Baths For Babies.
A daily bath for the young baby is
of the utmost Importance. At first the
tempera ture of the water should be 90
degrees F.. but by the end of the first
month it may be reduced to 20 de-
grees F.
When the child reaches eighteen
months cold sponge may be given
as a finish to the warm bath.
Delicate children who have not been
thus trained may be gradually Injured
to the cold bath and enjoy it's benefits
if caution is used. For such children
the temperature of the water should
be warm or tepid at first and daily re
duced until it is obvious that a vigor
GUS and healthy reaction will not fol

1t is really dangerous, not to say
, cruel, for obstinate nurses or parents
to force an anaemic child with poo
circulation to take cold bath from
which it is physically incapable of re
acting.

NED M'LEAN HAS
FAMOUS JEWEL
Purchases the Hope Diamond
For His wife
COST HIM OVER 100000

Wonderful Blue Stone, Which Has Al
ways Had an Evil Quality Reputeo
to 1t, viii Be Strongly Guarded Day
and Nigst-Was Among Crown
Jewels of France Until Revolution
In 1892
Washington, Jan. 30.-The famous
Hope diamond was sold here to Ned
Mclean, sen of John K. Mclean, for
over $500, 900. The sale was nego-
tiated at McLean's residence by Pierre
Cartiere of New York, American rep
resentative of the firm of Cartiere
F'reres of Paris.
William Schindle, a former secret
service man, has been engaged to
guard the stone. He, in turn, will be
Blake, private detectives. The stone
will be kept at the Mclean mansion
during the day, and each night will be
deposited in a safe deposit vault.
In the event that Mrs. Mclean
wears the gem at balls and receptions,
arrangements have been made to keep
the safe deposit building open until
after the function, that the stone may
be safely stored away. A special auto
mobile has been purchased to convey
the guards to and from the house to
the trust company's building.
The wife Of the latest purchaser of
the famous gem was formerly Evelyn
Walsh. She is the daughter of John
K. Walsh, millionaire Colorado min
ing man. Her young son has a gold
cradle.
The diamond was brought to this
country two months ago, the Cartieres
having bought it from a syndicate
This syndicate had bought it from an
other syndicate that purchased the
stone from Lord Francis Hope two
years ago.
This is the jewel that Miss May
YOhe wore when she was the wife of
Lord Francis. 1t is wonderful dia-
mond, as large in it's greatest periph-
cry as a gOOd-sized horse chestnut
and weighs 441a carats. 1t is distin-
guished from all other diamonds, be-
ing eXquisitely blue in color.
The diamond will be worn by Mrs
Mclean as a head ornament arranged
in bandeau, the large stone being
placed Immediately in front. with 9th
er diamonds Of lesser size studding the
setting bands. 1t is cut in triangular
form
The Hope diamond was brought
from India in the seventeenth century
by the noted traveller. Tayernier. and
sold to Louis XIV, King of France
who had it cut to suit his taste. i
remained among the crown Jewels CT
France until the revolution in 1892

water, a sponge and coarse towel
suffice for bath quite as refreshing
as could be had in the luxurious halls
of Caracalla.
Dangers Of the Cold Bath.
Personally l question the advisable
ity of the ice cold plunge as a daily
practice. The shock of this plunge
is well reacted from by many but
there is danger in some cases Of I'M
due strain upon the arteries and inter-
nal organs.
The moderately cold plunge or show
er fulfills all purposes of health, and it
is the part of wisdom to be- moderate
in this as in all things
The ice cold bath is to be avoided by
those suffering from heart or kidney
trouble or rheumatism. but such sub
jects may still enjoy a daily tepid
bath, especially if it is followed by a
vigorous rubbing of the skin with a
coarse towel. Also these subjects NAV
harden themselves against colds by
lightly sponging the neck and chest
with cool water
The best time for the cold bath is
before breakfast. Following the bath.
vigorous rubbing with coarse towel
and few exercises adapted to the
strength and endurance of the individ-
ual are advisable.
very valuable measure in cases
of nervous exhaustion and occasion
ally in cases of insomnia is the drip
sheet bath, employed as follows:
The patient, stripped, should stand
! in tub of warm water. A sheet dip
ped in cool or tepid water. the temper
allure depending upon the ability of
the subject to react. is then wraDped
around him from head to foot Brisk
friction Of body and limbs is applied
by an attendant, and the patient him
self may rub the front of his body
Except on the advice Of a physician
such Il bath should last but few mo-
mentS, and then the bather should be
put to bed
Bathing In Fevers.
When typhoid fever. pneumonia OF
other serious illness exists the cues
ton of cold bathing must be left tc
the attending physician. In a milo
| feyerish condition much comfort will
be afforded the patient by cool spong
ing. Even sponging with tepid water
will reduce the temperature and allay
nervous excitement. The sponge should
not be ''sopping" wet. but only we
enough to leave light film of water
on the skin.
The nightly hot foot bath is a valu
able restorative measure. especially il
middle life and old age. 1t promote:
healthful, restful sleep and relaxes ant
refreshes the congested and tiret
brain.
After taking hot foot bath tn,
bather should go to bed at once ant
compose himself to rest before the eff

Only the stenosraphers escaped, since they

A number of irreverent newspapers have
been accusing Senator Bartos of an
animus in resoluting so frequently against
the governor. The gentleman from Saline
could hardly be called directly concerned
in Douglas county affairs. but he has been
the leader in the senate against the gov
ernor. OF course, It is true beyond a
doubt that the senator's brother was
turned down by the executive for place
on the State Banking board, but the sena-
tor declares that he did not learn this fact
until after he had introduced his first res
