THE DEADLY BATHTUB.
We who take our tub as a duty.
our hot bath as a religious rite, and
our Turkish cleansing as a sacra
ment, may no longer be an aristo
cracy. Our foundations of hot and
cold, soap and towels are assailed.
The founder of a new arlstorcracy Is
Sir Almroth Wright, and the wash
ed are to bo submerged by the un
washed; the cleanly few represent
ing an old system are to fall before
the toncoming black horde.
"As to washing," says Sir Alm
roth Wright, "there Is a belief that
by doing so, people wash off the mi
crobes. We do take off a certain
amount of microbes, but we also de
stroy the protective skin which is
all round our bodies like the tiles
of a house." Again: "When one
has a horny hand, no microbe can
over get near the skin. If one has
ii skin like a tortoise, microbes will
a
PERSONAL
never get through. To have
Turkish bath is to take away one's
horny protection. A great deal o
washing increases the microbes of
the skin, so 1 do not think cleanli
ness is to be recommended as a hy
gienic metnou."
So the iconoclast trumpets at our
doors and the people who lead the
white-tiled bathroom life and sluice
and spray themselves at the marbled
altars of their cult tremble in tho
morning sanctuary. Brave men
whom we have looked upon as
scrubbed superior are really weak
lings minus the protective skin
should be round their bodies as
tiles are round a house. This fair
lady, pink, scented and showing lov
able, sottened contours in her smll
ing face, a rosy goddess of our clean
ly cult, Is no longer desirable. She
is a death-trap, for her dainty skin
is not as is the covering of the tor
toise and Indeed is a porous open-
sesame to all the microbes of tho
earth.
The untubbed heroes of to-morrow
may reach heights of efficiency of
winch we never dreamed, but it does
not follow that their presence or
passing may be more fragrant than
that of the generation they super
seded. In such a day a cake of
soap in the British Museum will be
come an interesting antiquity, rep
resenting a subtle influence lost to
a later generation. London Outlook,

DEATH RATE IX CHICAGO.
Somebody out In Chicago, after
an investigation covering 1,600
iamiues, nas discovered or an
nounces that in four-child families
the death rate is 118 per thousand.
wniie id six-child and eight-child
iamiues ine aeatn rates are per
tnousana 267 and 291, respectively,
These figures, according to the dis
patch conveying them, are expected
to trouble Col. Roosevelt when he
visits the Child Welfare Exhibit.
where they have been prominently
placarded, the assumption being
that they prove tho superiority of
sman to large iamiues.
Perhaps they will, for the Colon
el has done considerably more talk
ing than thinking on this, as on
some other subjects, but, as Is so
often the case with statistics, these
can be as easily made to support his
contentions as to confute them. It
would take 250 four-child families
to produce 1,000 children, and of
these 882 would survive. But an
many six-child families would pro
duce 1,500 children, with 1,100 sur
vivors and if there were eight chil
dren in each of 250 families, tho to
tal number would bo 2,000, with 1,
418 survivors.
So far as mere numbers go, there
fore, tho big families have the ad
vantage, in spite of their greater
death rate, and as regards quality,
It Is by no meaps certain that in
deed, it is highly questionable if
the attention and care concentrated
on a few children make them of
more value to the State than would
the same amount make a somewhat
larger number if distributed among
them. The concentration undoubt
edly keeps some weaklings alive
that might otherwise die, but that
Is not an unmixed blessing from tho
racial standpoint, and cold science
Is disposed to frown at it.
By common knowledge and ex
perience, an "only child" Is not apt
to be subjected to tho best of in- j

They are such as are made up of two
parts of similar form. Look carefully
at these and you will perceive that the
upper halves of the characters are a
very 'little smaller than the lower
halves, so little that, at a more glance,
you would declare them to be of equal
size. Xow turn this page upside down,
and without any careful looking you
will see that tho difference in size Is
very much exaggerated that the real
top hnlf of the letter Is very much
smaller than the other half. It will be
seen by this that there Is a tendency
in tho eye to enlarge the upper part
of any object upon which It looks.

least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure In all
Its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only posi
tive cure now known to the medi
cal fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
raucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up tho consti
tution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative powers
tht they offer One Hundred Dollars
