There are lobbyists and lobbyists. Some for
moral causes, paying their way others for
causes not SO moral. and for stipend while
others are for personal and selfish purpose. But
that is no reason why the Times Dispatch should
ccnsure heads of institutions when looking out
for the public's wards According to Editor
Land there were also other lobbyists at the last
session.
1t is said that all the voters In Lee and Jeffer-
day. because they cannot determine upon the
three candidates for the board of aldermen for
whom they are to vote. There are now four
aldermen from each of these wards. All good

Improvement
1t is well, in our opinion, to have both the
senate and the house represented on the CON-
mission. and with that In view there should
probably be seven members, two from each
branch OF the general assembly. The body pro
vided for by the house. If the senate concurs, will
include four members Of that body, three mem
bers Of the senate and three men to be named
by the governor. The statement has been made
that this form of commission meets with the ap-
prevail OF the governor and large number OF
senators.
The work to be done by this commission is of
paramount Importance. The tax laws in Yir.
ginia have not undergone thorough revision for
many years and there are glaring inequalities.
The subject is very intricate and complex, and In
order that great benefit rather than further con.
fusion may result from the revision, 1t is neces-
sary that there be placed on the commission men
thoroughly familiar with all phases OF the sub
ject of taxation, who bring to this task both
experience and technical knowledge. We hope
that the commission may be greatly reduced and
that the revision may result in great benefit to

MOTORCYCLE RAGE
BIG DRAWING CARD

Fred I Golfer and wife, of Col
ter, were visitors in town a few
days the first of the week, dur
ing which time Mr.. Golfer, as
usual, lost no opportunity to
boost for the state fair, of which
he is one of the commissioners.
He says the proposed motor
cycle race from Springeryille to
Phoenix during the state fair
this fall, is attracting wide
spread attention throughout the
country, even more attention
than the automobile races which
have always been famous attract
ions of the state fair,
The motorcycle race will start
at Springerville and the course
will be through St. Johns, Hol-
brook, Winslow, Flagstaff, Ash
Fork, and on through.

Each town along the route is
making up purse to give the
first rider entering in the town
IN the race. Springerville has
already pledged $1OO and St.
Johns will be expected to put up
at least that amount, while lar
er towns will give from 5000 to
$500. We believe the business
men of st. Johns will gladly
BOOST this famous event, as it
will mean good deal of adver-
Using for the entire country.
Phoenix gives the grand prize

NUNERAL STRENGTH OF
EUROPEAN ARMIES

In reading the war dispatches,
the difference in numeral
strength of the various division
of the European armies as COM
pared with that of our own, make
it difficult for those not familiar
with this difference to know how
many soldiers are engaged in any
instance.
The European regiments are
under the command of a colonel
and numbers about 1890 men at
full war strength. A brigade is
composed of three of these reg
iments and is commanded by a
major-general. Two brigades
form a division of 10000 men,
under the command of a lieuten-
ant-general, and an army corps
is formed of two divisions and
commanded by a general. Three
army corps constitute an indie
pendent army equipped with
cavalry, artillery, commissary,
engineers and medical depart
ments, the total strength of
which is 12O,OO men.

HEALTH AND Time Spent Bath Nc
Test of

Some parts of the body are more prone
to secretions and perspiration than others
and demand more frequent and complete
bathing The cleanliness of the body does
not depend on the number of minutes
person stays in the cleansing bath. or how
many are taken during the twenty-four
hours. II the body has been exposed to
dirt, a certain amount of friction Is neces-
sary to dislodge it; 1t is also quite pos
sible to be clean without the daily, all
over bath, although the latter is certainly
a great comfort and convenience.
The water for the cleansing bath should
be soft, or made so with some softening
agent. Oatmeal bags soften the water
and in measure act as soap. They are
made by filling a two-inch square OF
cheesecloth with a dessert spoon of finest
oatmeal and half teaspoon of powdered
orris root. II q little powdered soap is
added to this. no other soap is necessary.
After the cleansing bath is finished a
spray should be used or the body sponged
with clean water so as to leave no soap
on the skin. Many cases Of bath itch
come from neglect of this point.
Perfumed soaps are pleasant but they
are a luxury, for good perfume adds
enormously to the manufacturing cost of
soap. Cheap perfume should be avoided
by all means. The body. warm and moist
from the bath, Will hold perfume longer
than at any other time Toilet water
may be rubbed into the skin or It may
be powdered with a sweet smelling pow
der.
Benefit of the Cold Bath.
The morning cold bath, whether @
plunge or taken under q shower, is in
no sense a cleansing bath, but It has
wonderful stimulating powers. The shock
of the cold starts the heart pumping. the
skin muscles contract and the blood ves-
sells empty. The brisk rub that follows
brings the blood back through the capil-
larieS and vessels and the skin muscles
relax. This improves the circulation, has
tonic effect on the nerves and in many
cases acts as a preventative against colds
The test of the benefit that one derives
from cold bath is whether the after
effect is agreeably or not. If the body
is warm and glowing and there is feel
ing of lightness and exhilaration. the cold
bath is the right kind of a tonic. If. on
the other hand, there are any signs OF
chill. the temperature of the bath should
be raised.
Dryness Of the Skin.
The dryness OF the skin and the itching
that sometimes starts a few hours after
the bath may often be allayed by rubbing
the body after the bath with some per-
fumed oil, such as lavender oil. This
bath itch, as It is sometimes called. is
especially prevalent where there In little
