;BENEFiT IN CAILY TUBING
Required for Proper Preservation Of
Health and Looks-Turkish
Bath Works Wonders.

? 1t would be wrong to prescribe hot
water baths for all the world Of wom-
en-, for there are undoubtedly condi-
tions when they would be harmful, Is
the assertion made by prominent
physician. But daily Tubing in water
of some temperature or other Is re-
quired for looks and health, and If
the heart Is in good condition, the
benefits Of the hot tub are undeniable.
So the long dead beauties Of ancient
Greece and Rome kept themselves
fair, and SO the beauty Of today builds
up her looks when she finds they are
beginning to wane with time or
fevered life. Weak woman anxious
for their looks crowd the Turkish
bath. boiling and steaming away com
plcXion hurts, rejuvcnating muscles,
tightening their bodies of superiluous
flesh, soothing their nerves. And If
they arc used to such baths, or to
some other preferred kind, they feel
as fit as race horses for week after
ward
Some medical facts concerning the
usual effects Of the hot or cold bath
give this Illuminating Information:
Tho hot bath facilitates and stimu-
lates the natural combustion processes
Of the body; the cold bath. to produce
tho same results, lavishcs just four
times the same amount Of energy.
The cold bath is not sufficiently
cleansing for tho health Of the skin,
and when there is a predisposition to
skin troubles the chilly water tends
to Increase them. The process called
hardening" which consists in sub
mitting ones system to tho shock Of
cold plunges, is thought, too, the
worst thing in the world for any but
the most vigorous constitutions.

Ancient Hissisaippi Bay.

The lower valley Of the Mississippi
has experienced many vicissitudes dur.
ing bygOnc ages. Gcologists tell us
that during the IIoccnc era, when the
shores Of tho Gulf Of Mexico lay con.
siderably farther inland than at tho
present time. long, baylike extension
OF the gulf filled the present val.
ley Of tho Mississippi up to the mouth
OF the Ohio.
tbs boundaries of this ancient bay
were not stationary, but shifted slowly
back and forth from time to time, so
that open sea was gradually replaced
by brackish water, and this by swampa
and peat bogs The succeeding ad.
vance Of the sea buried these old peat
bogs beneath accumulations of clay,
sand and sea shells.

RATHER SPOILED THE EFFECT
Lawyers Eloquent Address NulIfied
When His Opponent Related
Little Fable.

A barrister who was possessed OF
an unusually loud voice was making
an eloquent address to q jury. His
case was fairly strong, and his
trumpet tones made the rafters ring.
The jury looked thoughtful and much
impressed.
The opposing barrfster had face
like hatchet and thin, low voice.
He began: "As l listened to the
thunderous appeals Of my learned op.
ponent recalled fable. A lion and
an ass entered into compact to slay
the beasts OF the Geld and share the
spoils. The ass was to go into the
thicket and bray and frighten the ami
mails out, while the lion was to lie in
wait and kill tho fugitives. Well, tho
ass sought the darkest part Of the jun
gle. and, lifting up his awful voice,
brayed and brayed and brayed. The
ass was intoxicated with his own up
roar and thought he'd return to SEQ
what the lion thought of 1t. He found
the lion pale In the face and trem
bling. What do you think Of that for
braying? said tho ass. Don't you
think scared them? Scared them 2
repeated the lion in an agitated tone.
Why, you'd have scared me If didn't
know you were n jackass!'"

MUST NOT BECOME MACHINE
Many Reasons Why Too Much Devo.
tlon to Habit Is Fad for lnd-
vidual Worker.

This force of habit is a good thing.
1t makes 1t possible for one to do q
great deal Of routine work with prac-
tically no exertion. Once tho pat
torn Is made, little attention is re-.
Quired. The brain acts almost auto.
matically, moving hands and feet as
may be necessary to accomplish the
desired action.
But habit can be injurious, too. And
by this l don't mean bad habits.
mean that the habit can be much over
done, and that when this happens inia.
tive and originality die. You become
little more than machine, and
though you may get through your al.
loted work perfectly, you are your
self fading out as an individual, los.
ing interest in existence.
You girls whose work Is pretty much
all routine want to take care that
habit doesn't make an end Of you A
certain amount Of routine labor is
rcstful, and good for you. But keep
from letting yourself sink into a day
in and day out routine that requires
practically no thought, hardly any at
tcntion. If your work tends to that
sort of thing make yourself do it in
new ways, watch out for short cuts,
bring your mind to bear on all it's
details, try to seek better ways of do
ing what you are busy over And IL
your work is really hopeless, then cs.
cape from habit as much as possible
the rest Of your time. Don't 30 much
as go home the same way every day
in tho week, vary your amusements,
take up some study on the side. Re.
fuse at all hazards to atrophy your
mind by falling into the unchanging
habit of doing everything the same
way, and thinking Of everything the
same way.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.

When the Sioux won the district
tournament here. showing the best bas-
ketball seen here for some time. It was
thought to be a foregone conclusion
that they would be- allowed to take
part In the state meet at Iowa City. IL
was for this purpose that the team
entered the Morningside tournament
and played thru two rounds Of games
and semi final and final.
The total expenses Of the team to
Iowa City will be about SITS: much OF
Which money will be refunded II the
Sioux finish first or second In the
tournament The money must be
forthcoming here before the team can
leave, however. and Athletic Manager
Ross Grange today stated that, so far
as the athletic association Is concerned,
there Is no chance There Is no
money In the treasury. In fact they are
far in debt, and. unless some local
take 1t upon themselves to
donate the money. Sioux City will be
without a representation in Iowa City.
The local high school has a better
chance than for years OF winning the
state championship and the fact that
they will play comparatively easy
team the first game makes them all
the more anxious to be allowed to
take part, The local team Is one Of the
best In the state-there Is no question
OF that-and 1t seems too bad that
they may not have an opportunity Of
showing their class against other first
rate teams.

Mrs. Eva Kenyon Gregg Writes to
Relatives falling Of Raid Which
Aroused Washington to Action and
Resulted IN invasion Of Mexico

s Grundy Center, March 17.--.Mrs. Eva
kenyon Grssg, a former Grundy Cen
ter woman, a sister Of Mrs. G.. c. ALL
sor, and Mrs =. s. King and her son
Kenyon Gregg. are in Columbus. N. M"
and went thru the Villa raid on that
town last Thursday morning.
f. AS soon as word Of the raid was
received @. C. Allison telegraphed to
Mrs. Gregg at Columbus but did not
get a reply and for few days the
relatives here were on the anxious
seat Tho reason for not, answering
the telegram was learned this week
when a card came from Mrs. Gregg
giving a brief story Of the raid. The
telegraph lines were literally jammed
with government messages and with
kilograms sent to relatives Of those
who had been killed that 1t was impos-
sible for ordinary messages to be sent
out from the town.
= Mrs. Gregg stated on her card that
the town was badly torn up and all
was excitement. When the firing be-
gan the people thought 1t was n sham
battle and some Of them went down
town. James Dean. a former Hum
boldt. Iowa, citizen. thought this was
the case and he was shot and killed.
Mrs. Gregg and son are living In one
of IMr. Deans cottages, so the raid
came pretty close home
Mrs. Gregg's card further stated that
all the people had armed and prepared
for battle. Kenyon Gregg secured a
rifle and took up his position in an
abode house near the frame dwellings
occupied by his mother and neirhbors.
but the raiders did not get out that
far.
The card was sent Thursday after
noon. following the raid early that
morning and the story was told in
short. snappy sentences. which gave
evidence of the excitement under
which the people in Columbus were
living. The relatives here were glad
for the bits of information telling Of
the safety of Mrs. Gregg and son. They
hope Mrs. Gregg can get out OF Colun-
bus soon but Kenyon's health has not
been such as would permit much trav-
cling, and they are awaiting more
complete news from Mrs. Gregg as to
her plans and the situation at Column
