ing yourself to death these long, hot,
summer days, let me tell you a way
of resting that is veritable life pre-

your clothing and lie down without
any pillow under your head. Lie on
your back with your arms stretched
out but perfectly relaxed, and take
about a dozen long, deep breaths
through your nose. Inhale as slowly
as possible, hold your breath an in
stant and exhale slowly. After about
a dozen breaths you will probably
feel sleepy, and If you will permit
yourself to lose consciousness just
for moment, you will get up feeling

Getting a Rest on Sunday.
Another thing that most women
do that | think is not only foolish,
Int wrong, is to make of Sunday
feast day instead of a rest day.
Especially is this true of Sundays in
summer. I never could see why the
woman of a family shouldn't have
Sunday as we'll as the man. but
she very seldom does. Sunday in
the country is generally day of
visiting, and the family and visitors
have grown to expect an extra good
dinner. This is all right for every
body except the housekeeper, but for
her it just turns the day of rest into
a day of extra toll. I didn't start
out that way myself and I do less
cooking on Sunday than any other
day, but at the same time. like
to have company and good dinners,
too, Sunday or any other time. So
this is how once solved the prob
lem Of no Sunday work and good
dinner for company, too, and I'm
only sorry I didn't learn it earlier:
Once, a few summers ago, I got a
note from an aunt in town that she
with some other relatives and friends
about IL in all-would be out to
spend the next Sunday with us. I
was delighted, of course, and like
all young housekeepers, I wanted to
90 myself proud in the way of a good
dinner; but as I had no help, I
Knew that to serve the regulation
sunday dinner would leave me too
ared to enjoy the visit, and no time
e1ner. With my own family there
were IA, and my table only seated
elgnt, and I thought with dismay of
tne piles of dirty dishes and cooking
utensils to be washed after a big
olnner for that many people. So
JUST decided to have a regular pic

DR.. John Finley and Vice PreSi,
dent of Erie Railroad Plan
Long Hike.

NEW YORK. Oct 15.-Dr. John H
Finley, president of the College of the
City of New York, and F. d. Under
wood. president of the Erie railroad, are
to go on a hike from New York to Chi
cago. The distance is about 900 miles.
The challenge was made by Under
wood, who is walking enthusiast.
DR.. Finley wanted to walk around
Manhattan island. Underwood scoffed
at that little jaunt The college presi-
dent then suggested New York to Phil
adelphia. but Underwood asked
Whats the matter with Chicago"
It's a 60" replied DR.. Finley, and
they shook hands on it.
Then it developed that both Under
wood and DR.. Finley had been longing
for decades to take the walk from New
York to Chicago, but had never had the
inclination or the time to make the
start.
Nothing, they agreed, should shake
their determination to make the trip
together at the earliest possible time
convenient to both.

CHICAGO. Oct. 15.-Who is the Chi

100 pieces of porcelain, spoiled by over
burning in a modern kiln, under the
impression he was purchasing priceless
antiques from royal table?
George P. Davis, chief examiner of

said: Most of our trouble is over art
antiquities. Only about ten per cent of
the European antiquities brought into
Chicago are real" On the millionaire
he said
What he paid $4,000 for was the
work of modern pottery in Austria,
and it was not even good modern work.
The whole batch had been ruined by
unsuccessful burning"

it is very popular al the summer re-

OF the rest of the bunch of bizarre
dances that followed the Turkey Trot, -

and host of others, Mr.. Lynwood has
slight commentator. If they were not
built especially for the stage, he thinks
they had best stay in the dance halls
where they originated.

they usually are so fatiguing that they
could never be popular"
On the subject of fancy dancing and
folk dancing, Mr.. Lynwood is an enthu-
siast He is a lot more interested in
such forms of dancing than the ball room
favorites.
In speaking of the Kirmess to be given
by the Elks in November for the benefit

The Turkey Trot' has come to stay
the theories of some of Auanta's most
exclusive sets to the contrary notwith-
standing Its nation wide vogue and its
successful foreign invasions will yet make
the most stubborn of this city's society
folk yield to its bizarre enticements
All this and more is the opinion of P
L. Lynwood. dance expert, who came to
Atlanta with F. NJ. Agostini to drill the
Elks' Kirmess. Lynwood says that even
the straight-laced Canadian cities have
given ground before the advance of the
Turkey Trot." 1t is now being danced
from Bar Harbor to Banff
And Lynwood, dance expert consid-
ers it worthy of consideration.
'Of course, its rapid jump into popu-
larity has made it more or less of a fad
but there is no doubt in my mind but
that it will linger for years as a pop

of the pastime that had it's origin in the
dance halls of San Francisco
"As Proper as a Waltz"
1T is perfectly good dance, and, to
my mind, as proper as a waltz. The
Turkey Trot' is not fatigung, and per-
haps it has that to recommend it most
of all. At any rate, they are dancing it
lIOH one enc OF the united states to
the other
The fact of the matter is a girl who
can't dance the Turkey Trot nowadays
stands the best chance in the world of
clinging to the wall during an evening
Il spent the summer in New England
summer resorts and in Canada, and
saw more turkey trotting than anything
else. Its sudden popularity is unusual,
but there is no disputing the fact that
1t has come to stay for some few years"
Mr.. Lynwood, who had seen the dance
in San Francisco, its birthplace, before
it became popular, talked interestingly of
its beginning.
Originally Car Barn Dance.
Strange as it may sound, the dance
originated in the dance halls contiguous
to the old Turk street car barns in San
Francisco the year after the earth
quake. e
Somebody sprang it, nobody knows
who, but it became the rage in the
dance halls. Resorts on Frisco's famous
Barbary coast took it up and for a long
time it was the victim of police edict
Finally it assumed propriety and be-
gan to invade the fashionable clubs
'Trotting parties became the thing, and
all San Francisco from the North Beach
dance halls to exclusive Burlingame, went
Turkey Trot mad.
