VAPOR BATHS IN LAPLAND
Writer'S Strenuous Experience Of
Cleansing Process Finishes With
Being Bastinadoed.

In Wide World Frank Hedges But
Ter describes a vapor bath in the land
of the Lapps. He says;
The bathhouse Is small wooden
structure generally situated some way
from the dwelling house. It is divided
into two compartments, one to undress
in, while the other contains the oven
which produces the steam. The oven
is arched with large stones or pebbles,
and heated by fire placed beneath.
Undressing In the first room. one en-
tiers the heated compartment. After q
short rest on q wooden form or bench,
which contains q place for the head,
the attendants come in and battle you
Cold water Is thrown over the stones
and the kissing vapor soon sends up
a cloud of steam. The higher you sit
from the floor the greater the heat. AS
more water Is thrown over the red-hot
stones the vapor becomes so intense
that one can hardly breathe. We were
soon gasping for breath and covered
with profuse perspiration which is
sued from every pore Of the skin.
Hanging up in the room were tender
branches or twigs In green state and
retaining their leaves. Dipping these
in water, the attendant began flashing
and whipping me across the legs.
shoulders, loins and back, till my body
seemed quite red with the switching.
The bastinadoing over. was then
washed with soft flannel covered
with soap, after which jug Of the
coolest water was thrown over my
head and body.

JOKE ON SCHOOL VISITOR
Able to Appreciate Unconscious
Humor Of the Children.

The late Hamilton w. Mabie. the
weil-known American essayist, was
one of those genial men who enjoyed
Joke on themselves. Illustrating this
phase of Mr.. Mabie's character, it Is
told that when he was a student Mr..
Mabie made an address in which he
told this story:
He had visited q school In Philadel-
phia in which there was a daily fire.
drill The teacher regularly asked the
students, Children what would you
do If fire were to break out In this
building?" The children all repeated
in chorus, 1--WE would rise in our
places, step into the aisle. and march
quietly out Of the building" On the
morning when Mr.. Mabie visited the
school, while he was sitting quietly on
the platform, the teacher stepped be-
fore the pupils and said, Children,
what would you say If were to tell
you that Mr.. Mabie Is to speak to you
this morning?" The children prompt
ly replied In chorus, "We would rise
In our places, step into the aisle. and
march quietly out Of the building"

Fair price list issued by the Food
Administrator, June 1st, 1918.
The fair price list sent out to the
County Administrators and the County
press from Baltimore City, is based
each week upon the wholesale prices
charged in Baltimore City and the
prices accepted by the retail dealers OF
Baltimore City as showing fair mar
gin of profit. In applying these prices
to County stores, the fact should be
kept in mind that the County dealer
who purchases supplies from Baltimore
City must add to the price which is
charged in Baltimore a transportation
cost, in many instances, to his place OF
business, including freight and, in
some non-railroad or wharf points,
truck or team transportation. Where
these differences exist, they must be
recognized in the retail price, and the
dealer allowed to add this cost to the
