half-hour's rest; and, If she wants
1t, has a cup of tea or coffee.
Could those good people who nur-
ture a virtuous feeling of pride in
their state of superior cleanliness
produced by regimen of daily cold
baths and one warm soap-scrub per
week, see, just once, the amount of
dead cuticle and actual dirt that rolls
away under the influence of the
shampooer's kneading and lathering,
they would be convinced of the
makeshift character of such baths
a mere sop to the idea of cleanli-
ness.
1t is a great pity that the advant-
age Of these baths is not more wide
ly appreciated so that through gen
erous and large patronage their
price could be reduced; for, under
existing circumstances they are
quite beyond the reach of a large
class of overworked people, whose
sedentary occupations produce the
very conditions which are most
promptly alleyiated by them Very
many, however, of this very class, do
spend hard-earned dollars for patent
nerve-tonics, which would return to
them hundred-fold more benefit II
they paid for baths instead.

The Russian bath differs from the
Turkish in being a vapor bath, in
principle the same as the primitive
baths first described; while the
Turkish begins with exposure to dry
heat at temperature of from 12O
degrees to $50 degrees Fahr The
effect of both is much the same, and
when many bathers gather at the
same time in a Turkish bath, the
air becomes quickly charged with
vapor. 1t is thought by some that
the Turkish bath favors reduction Of
flesh and the Russian increases; but
both have been used with equal ben
eft in curing obesity.
When taking a Turkish bath in
this country you don loose cotton
chemlse of simplest form, end en-
veloped in an ample sheet, enter the
sudatorium, where your attendant
seats you comfortably in a reclining
chair, binds wet towel about your
forehead, and gives you glass Of
cold water Your attendant careful
ly watches the effect of the heat, sup
plies more drinking water If needed,
and leaves you for a longer or short
er time, according to the response of
the perspiratory glands. When the
sweat starts freely from every pore,
you go into still hotter room and
rocline on a marble couch, which
stretches round the sides of the
apartment A fresh wet towel is
bound about the brows, more water
drunk, and you lie here till as wet
as If dipped in the swimming pool,
and altogether the sensation is de-
lightfully soothing. You feel as If a
lot Of depressing, clogging products
We're being coaxed out of you. Some
times there is progression through
several of these hot rooms, at in
creasing temperature up to 210 de-
grees Fahr.; or, If you are alone, the
temperature is raised in this second
one, the attendant adjusting it ac-
cording to the effect upon the bather.
After this you are taken to mar
BILE cabinet where, reclining on a
marble couch, you are lathered and
shampOoed, while hot water is freely
poured over you. The needle spray
very observation-disclosures, and after
it, If you choose two or three quick
dips into the cold swimming pool.
Some women are too timid to ven
ture upon this, and If there is weak
action Of the heart, 1t is best not to;
otherwise an enjoyable part of the
bath is missed After friction with
Turkish towels, there is another
shampoo with alcohol, If desired; and
then the bather is enyeloped in a
fresh sheet and tucked upon a rest

DISCUSS THE
OVERFLOW OF
MILL CREEK

A meeting Of much Importance to
people living along the banks Of Mill
creek was held last night in the coun-
Gil chamber Of the city hall, at which
the matter of deepening the channel
and raising the banks of the creek
were thoroughly gone over, and it is
now believed that active steps will be
taken so that in the future that stream
will not overflow its banks. The
meeting was called by Governor West,
at the instance Of a large number Of
property owners along the line OF the
creek John H. Albert was elected
chairman Of the meeting and William
Brown was chosen secretary. Cover
nor West, in calling the meeting to
order, stated his purpose in calling
1t was to devise means Of preventing
the inundation of large area of
country and some Of the city by Mill
creek and to cooperate with the city
with view to deepening the channel
Of that stream.

committee to ascertain the power and
liability of the power company main

FAMOUS BEACH RESORT COMING
TO THE FRONT AS NOT ONLY
ONE OF THE FINEST IN OREGON,
BUT ON THE WHOLE COAST.

Visitors to Newport this season will
find many welcome changes There
have been many improvements fin
ished and others are under way.
One of the greatest improvements
for the town Of Newport is the plank
ing on Front street. This will make
the street passabe in all sorts Of
weather and will be great comfort
to the great crowds on excursion days.
All the business houses are being op-
ened up, and the Abbey hotel, which
has remained open all winter, already
houses quite few guests. A con-
crete bank building Is in course Of
construction, and several other build
ings of good size are nearly COM
pleted
Half way over the hill to Nye Beach
q large Odd Fellows hall is going up,
the lower part of which will be used
for store rooms. The top of the hill
has been leveled and new walk
built, the grade being materially less
ened in consequence.
AT Nye Beach all Is in readiness for
the coming of the tired city people.
All the hotels and boarding houses are
already open, and many cottages are
being built. The plunge opens tomor-
row and has been completely renov-
ated The Hotel Nicolai is nearly fin
ished, and Manager Anderson is now
in Portland buying furniture
Newport people predict the most
successful year of all for Oregons
most famous summer resort and Pres
ident Blanchard Of the Commercial
Club says that he fully expects to see
Newport and Nye Beach come fully
into their own this year.

Reports from all the counties in

He declares that about 20 per cent of
those taking the examinations failed,
which is a splendid showing, when
