THE QUIET LIFE.

When village clocks are striking

downy couch recline, and throw some
Nightmares there. And people say,
"You miss so much, who sleep the
hours away, You should wake up and
keep in touch with night life, which is
gay, Then all the live wires are on
deck, and bands play jazzy tunes, and
you should through the village trek,
and blow in some doubloons." The

Most Presidents Since
Hayes Saved Money When
Residing in WASHINGTON

Most of the presidents since Hayes
have had enough money or means OF
earning enough to permit them to live
comfortably Hayes is said to have
saved $4,000 a year during his term
as president Arthur is believed to
have saved $4,000 during his three
and a half years in office. Cleveland
was a poor man when he went to the
white house, but he retired to private
life with a comfortable estate, due
largely to wise investments of his saw
ings. Harrison is said to have spent
but about half his salary.
Mckinley went to the white house
in debt, but during his five and one
half years in the presidency he paid
his debts and saved enough more to
provide for Mrs. Mckinley after his
death.
Roosevelt saved money while he
was in the white house. He received
legacies from his father during his
lifetime which totaled nearly 100000
but at his death he left an estate OF
half million dollars, more than hall
of which was saved by him during his
term as president, or received by him
for his writings.
Id1t went 10 the White MUSE IL
debt; in four years he was out OF debt
and had saved money.
Woodrow Wilson had practically
nothing before 1912, but in 1921 he
bought a home in Washington fol
$4,000, paying for it in cash or its
| equivalent. He is planning to spend
! similar amount on country home
and he casually refused an offer o.
| $4,000 for an article on the Peace
Conference Associates of the former
| president estimate that he saved $50,
| 600 year for eight years.

LOST LETTERS SHOW
GENERAL s CHIVALRY

Chivalry caused General Sam Hous-
ton suddenly to resign as governor of
Tennessee, leave his wife, whom he
had married three months before, and
leave a brilliant career to live among
tAe Indians He was accused of de-
pravity and every form of villainy in
explanation of this conduct, but never
broke silence on the cause of his
strange action.
Except for a package Of letters
found many years after his death,
General Houston's name would not
have been cleared of the stigma Of dis
graceful conduct. That self-sacrifce

memory of the poet. Their proximity
to Minnehaha Falls makes the name
especially appropriate. A statue of
Longfellow in heroic size ornaments
the gardens, and was unveiled with ap-
propriate ceremonies. The house in
which Mr.. Jones lives is replica OF
the Longfellow house, and contains

Sees Ceremonial Bathing
In Ganges at Benares

Writing in the magazine Asia, A.
Coyle gives a colorful picture of the
ceremonial bathing in 'the holy Gan
ges," sacred river of India. The scene
is laid at the city of Benares.
The men and women bathed to-
gether in the crowded places. but
farther up the stream were a few sets
of RATS and canopied shelters, partially
reserved for women. The masculine
intruder did not seem to matter The
women stepped into the water in the
sarl; and, when they emerged, thew
wrapped dry length of cloth about
themselves and dropped the wet gar
ment from underneath as they ar
ranged the fresh sari in graceful
folds.
Il saw plastic loneliness that would
have maddened any sculptor. Hand in
hand, couple of slender girls, clad in
soft lemon and lavender, which caress
ed each movement of the body and
each gracious curve of the limbs.
t1uttered TO the music of their own
laughter down the steep CHAT: one of
them crooking her elbow to keep a.
tight hold upon a huge copper Iotah.
while the other raised with a turn
of her silver circled wrist, a fanlike
group of folds that hindered her feet
in their dancing fight.
Beautiful, too, were some of the
women as they tiptoed to water the
sacred tulsi plant upon its pedestal of
clay or stone, and as they clasped their
hands upon its root and bowed their
heads in prayer; but most beautiful
of all were those who, standing in the
| river and nodded into exquisite
statues by its wet embrace, lifted their
arms in worship toward the sun. So
limpassioned they looked-their heads
flung back upon their columned
Threats, their eyes closed upon some
inner vision-that ones own heart was
exalted and cried in sympathy, We
entreat Thee to hear us, good Lord . .

When you awake up with bachache

acid which overworks the kidneys
in their effort to filter it from the
blood and they become sort OF par
alyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must
relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the body's
urinous waste. else you have back
ache, dizzy spells; your stomach
sours, tongue Is costed, and when
the weather is bad you have rheuma-
