CLIMATE IS FINE
Sunny Places of the Mediterran-
can Country.
Malaga Spain. Has Only 40 Rainy
Days In Year-Moroeeo and Al
siers, in Africa, Have Many
Notable Resorts.

LondOn.-Countries along the Ned
tterranean sea are noted for the ex-
cellence Of their climate Malaga
Spain, possesses one Of the best eli
mates in Europe. The rainy days are
said TO number only 40 In the year
Morocco and Algeria In Africa af-
ford several notable resorts, such as
Morgadore, Tangier and Algiers. They
possess a much larger proportion Of
warm days and a greater immunity
from cold winds than any OF the re-
sorts on the northern shore OF the
Mediterranean Still, owing to the
frequency OF sea breezes and the vi
cinity Of high mountains, their eli
mates are moister than might have
been anticipated.
Thus the annual rainfall at Algiers
is IS inches, and Of this four-fifths
or fve-sixths falls during the winter
season. The interior OF Algeria af-
fords several resorts en- the verge Of
the great desert-such as Biskra-
where the climate conditions rival the
warmth and sunshine OF Egypt
The land OF the Nile possesses one
Of the most wonderful climates in the
world Here alone are found assO-
ciated perpetual sunshine and practi-
cal rainlessness with verdure and fer
tility. The rainfall Of Egypt varies
from eight inches annually at Alexan-
dria and one inch and a quarter at
Cairo to nil at Luxor, where II is face
tious1y said TO rain once In every 1000
years.
With such a rainfall the number Of
dull and cloudy days is necessarily
very small-almost perpetual sun
shine may be said to prevail, and a
high degree Of atmospheric dryness is
attained The drawbacks to such z
climate as that Of Egypt are the great
contrast between the day and the
night temperatures, owing TO the IN
tense energy OF radiation, the glare OF
the sunlight and the plague OF dust

pieces are machine-stitched together
in the finished garment
Brilliantine or mohair, in a good
quality, is about the most appropriate
material for these bathing suits.
Whatever material is used for the
suit, or for trimming, must be shrunk-
Blue in bright, strong tones, or gray
or certain shades Of green and red,
viii all stand the water and sun. But
the old reliable combination Of blue
in bright navy trimmed with white
braid cannot be improved upon for
good looks or durability. Small pearl
buttons make a fine bit OF finishing
used with white mohair braid.
The little rubber-cloth caps are to
be had In all the bright colors and In
checked and spotted patterns. These
caps are made also In plaids and
stripes In brilliant coIors. They are
usually bought ready made As the
rubber cloth may be bought It IS q
good idea to add an odd bit of trim
ming made Of it, to distinguish the
cap from others One can keen an
eye on the small Eearer, If her cap is
recognizable, and allow her more free
dom in her water play.

2 VERY little girl has right to play
l. in the water and to learn to swim
and be as much at home in 1t as her
brother is The adventurous spirit OF
boyhood takes him out with his fell

splendid swimmers, and the mere
knowledge that they possess this &C
complishment keeps them from get

water sports Of their companions
The most noted swimmer In this
country is Miss Annette KelIerman-
Quite likely there are numbers OF
men who swim as well and have as
much endurance But no one Of them
can do better, and no one Of them can

Cummings Writes Again.

Editor Kennebec Journal:
In your issue of the 26th inst you
do me the honor of publishing my let
ter to the Lewiston Journal and OF
making somewhat extended criticism
OF the same.
This criticism appears to be wholly
DEVOTED to structures upon the form OF
EXPRESSION and not upon the correct
ness of the position taken by the writ
er whom you cr;icise.
It is even an instance, Mr.. Editor.
where in order to make il appear that
you are abused you class yourself and
others with those specifically con-
demned. OF course if one desires TO
do this it is not for me to chide him
but when you say that the Progressive
party must draw from these stand
nat thieves and the blind and stupid
who follow them" you are not wholly
accurate.
The Progressive party has already
got the best part of the Republican
marty. and a bit later we will get the
best Of the Democratic party. Indeed
we already have some of them; one be-
ing Judge william L. Ransom of New
York who addressed a meeting OF more

ease. 1t is as hard for some men to
break away from party as it is to
quit using tobacco or liquor.
Men seem to think that certain
aggregation of letters of the alphabet
into a party name contains in and of
itself some inherent virtue OF great
consequence.
The Republican party was born of a
need of humanity which existing par
ties denied, or attempted to suppress.
1t was composed of noble men who did
a great work. In the process of time
those men died. and through the boil
ing of the political pot the scum final
ly came to the top and controlled the
party.
At Chicago the Republican national
committee was dominated by special
privilege and they preferred to wreck
the party which they controlled rather
than see man chosen as President
whom they could neither dominate nor
fool. It is those men, Mr.. Editor, that
I call a den OF thieves.
1t is true that some party blind men
who mean well. and who want to do
we'll. followed, and still follow them.
We want those men in the Progressive
party; but we do not want the men
who perpetrated the political crime at
Chicago, or those who. knowing the
facts. uphold 1t.
Touching upon that phase of the
case let me call your attention to your
Republican contemporary, the Port
land Daily Press, which roundly con-
demned the utterance of Adam Bede
in a recent Portland address, in which
the Press says that 1t was men like
Bede who ''assassinated the Republi-
can party at Chicago"
call these men thieves, while the
Portland Daily Press-a Taft Republi-
can newspaper-calls them "assassins."
Surely if your contemporary goes un-
rebuked for calling them murderers,
should be considered a very mild and
gentle Progressive for calling them
thieves.
The Republican party is made up or
the units from all the states. The Re-
publican party Is today in the hands
of the same gang that wrecked 1t at
Chicago. The dominating power is still
that of Barnes, Crane. Root and PEN
rose, Smoot, Gugsenheim and their
satellites.
Cummins. LaFollette and few 9TH
ers tried to turn the party from an
evil course in Congress and utterly
failed. They still talk about reform
